Felipe Ezekiel Langaro Santos

Hello, this is Felipe! :)

When you have me as your tutor, you:
- have someone who can anticipate a wide variety of learner difficulties through long-term and skilled teaching experience
- are able to find pace that is both comfortable and effective for you
- learn while being exposed to different sources (authentic, textbook-based, adapted)
- can ask questions to your heart's content, until you feel like your doubts are cleared up
- are given honest and constructive feedback whenever appropriate

A bit about my background as a professional:

As a Graduate in Teaching English as a Second Language at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil in 2018, I have been working with languages for over ten years. From those years, over seven have been teaching-related. As a language learning enthusiast, I have also taken courses such as the Teaching Portuguese as a Second Language and Mandarin Chinese, which have broadened my perspective on language learning and teaching even further. In addition and because I understand qualification is a never-ending path, I have also completed the CELTA course in Malta, having recently become a Cambridge-certified teacher. In the past, I also worked for the Confucius Institute at my alma mater alongside the Chinese, which provided me with bicultural workplace experience and cross-cultural communication skills.
