Olá! Meu nome é Isabela. Sou escritora e jornalista, com doutorado em literatura. Eu nasci no Rio de Janeiro, mas morei grande parte da minha vida em Fortaleza, no nordeste do Brasil. Hoje, eu vivo em São Paulo. Acabei aprendendo muito com todas essas mudanças e gosto de trazer, nas aulas, não só a língua, mas também a cultura brasileira. :)
Hi! My name is Isabela. I'm a writer and journalist, with PhD in literature. I was born in Rio de Janeiro, but lived most of my life in Fortaleza, in the northeast of Brazil. Today, I live in São Paulo. I ended up learning a lot with all these changes and I love bringing to class not only the language, but also the Brazilian culture. :)
Me as a Teacher
Uma das coisas que mais gosto de fazer é compartilhar com outras pessoas aquilo que sei. Ser professora, para mim, é esse gesto de partilha, antes de tudo. Ensino literatura em cursos livres em São Paulo (Brasil), mas também já dei aulas de conversação em português e espanhol.
One of my favorite things is to share what I know with others. Being a teacher, for me, is this gesture of sharing, above all. I teach literature in São Paulo (Brazil), but I've also taught conversation classes in Portuguese and Spanish.
My lessons & teaching style
Cada aula é adaptada de acordo com o objetivo e o nível de cada estudante – seja vocabulário, conversação, pronúncia, gramática etc. Gosto de trazer referências do cinema, da música e da literatura do Brasil, para ajudar o(a) aluno(a) a praticar e aprender a se expressar de modo mais fluente e com maior segurança na língua portuguesa.
Each class is tailored according to the objective and level of each student – vocabulary, conversation, pronunciation, grammar etc. I always bring references from cinema, music and literature from Brazil, to help students to express themselves more fluently and with greater confidence in Portuguese.

Isabela is a very knowledgeable tutor, lessons are fun and polite, she makes interesting questions and her broad sense of life and culture could help you understand Brazilian literature better.

La clase con Isabela fue muy buena, me ayudó a prepararme para un examen. En todo momento fue muy atenta y estimulaba la conversación animándome y corrigiéndome de forma muy asertiva.
