I've been traveling the world since I was around 17 years old and been blessed to travel across all 6 continents, from Canada to Hong Kong. I have an absolute passion for getting to know other cultures and people and bring that same passion to those in the school!

They say the best jobs are the ones that find you. After years of being told by many loved ones that I should be a teacher and years of people in my travels requesting that I open an English school, I finally decided to do it and open a school that is to-the-point and effective!

I am a huge fan of language-learning apps and auto-didactics, but I believe there's only so much an application or textbook can do. I am very people-oriented and I am human - I can resonate with you as a human and I will treat you as a human, something apps don't fully do.

I moved to Brazil at 19 and wasn't from a Portuguese-speaking family. I therefore learned the basics of teaching languages by being taught myself. Now I can help Portuguese-speakers learn, and I know shortcuts to teach faster, since I know firsthand what to prioritize.

I am a native English speaker and was forming full English sentences from a younger-than-average age. Not only can I answer your questions, but I can bring a unique cultural perspective and cultural element to your learning, both from American and global pop culture.
