Ivan Carbonel

Ivan is awesome! He is great at providing a lot of cultural context while teaching Portuguese, and is helping to push me out of my comfort zone with the language. I really like the casual lessons with both formal and informal exercises. :)

Ivan is organized and not criticizing. His class format is interactive and he is polite and kind. The online study resources he shared are high quality and I look forward to doing the homework.

Ivan is one of the best teachers I have found on ITalki! He has a deep understanding of languages which is invaluable when speaking about complex topics. His lessons are always really fun and he uses many different types of resources which keeps the classes interesting and engaging. I would definitely recommend him as a tutor!

Ivan presented many of his teaching methods that I was given the opportunity to test and see how I liked. He developed his lesson plan through his personal background but made sure to take into account where I was coming from a North American background. All-in-all he was energetic and straight to the point about who he is and how he likes to teach!

What a nice lesson, cheers Ivan! Hope to see you again soon to continue our chat!

La clase fue entretenida, se me hizo corta y provechosa. Me encanta dar clases con Iván
