I have been in love with the world of languages since I was a kid.

When I was around 12 years old, I've started learning English on my own because I was completely fascinated by the language! I kept studying it during college years and got my Bachelor’s in Languages and Literature and Master’s degree in Applied Linguistics at the University of Campinas in Brazil. In both situations I completed the English courses offered by the University with good success and improved my learning and teaching skills!

From 2011 to 2022 I've worked as an English and Portuguese school teacher in Brazil and as an online tutor for students of all ages, always trying to find the best ways to connect with them and to create the passion of learning a new language.

It was January 2022 when I finally decided taking a leap of faith and moving from Brazil to Europe!
I've lived in Geneva (Switzerland) and Cagliari (Italy) is now my hometown (for the moment :D)!
While travelling around, I was able to improve my French and learn Italian once for all! But it's important to say how essential knowing and speaking fluently English was during my journey.

My main methodology is focused on listening and understanding my students' everyday needs when it comes to learning. I don't have an only method, but I prefer a combination of different techniques, contents, languages, and strategies to follow my students during the paths of learning.
Classes are always well oriented towards the real needs of each student and can be taken individually or in groups up to three students.
