The tutor
I have been an English teacher since 2011. My main interests are exam preparation (Cambridge English B2, C1 and C2 exams), writing skills, and language development for teachers. I hold a degree in Languages (UNESP), the Cambridge C2 Proficiency, the CELTA, and the TKT (Modules 1, 2, and 3), and more recently, the Trinity Cert PT qualification.
My aim is simple: to help people feel more confident — and more capable — every time they sit down to write.
When I’m not teaching, you’ll probably find me enjoying a coffee and a pastry at the nearest café, drafting a text I’ll never post, or rewatching one of my favourite films.
