About Me

italki teacher since Jan 5, 2022

Hello to all! My name is Arsène Costa, I am Congolese (DR.Congo), but currently I live in Brazil (São Paulo) for study reasons. I am a student in aeronautical engineering at the University of São Paulo (Usp). I have always had a strong passion for languages, and this passion has pushed me to learn at least six languages, three of which are European and the other three African. Although I study engineering, I also enjoy discussing other subjects such as law, sports, medicine, current affairs, gastronomy, literature... I like music, and it is one of the tools I use a lot to learn other languages.

Me as a Teacher

Building a tower requires a high level of preparation and skill acquisition before and during construction, otherwise the work will be mocked. The experience I have acquired while learning certain languages such as Portuguese, for example, has allowed me to learn and develop different approaches that, in my opinion, could help the student assimilate with great ease. A friendly atmosphere, where making mistakes is part of the learning process and not a subject of mockery is all I want for the student. Conversation (dialogue) is the main object, because in dialogue, one learns. However, grammar and conjugation will be constantly present during the course in order to better understand the use

My lessons & teaching style

The focus in learning a language is communication, which can be oral, written or gestural, although oral or spoken comes first in most cases. In case you decide to take classes with me, I will use ways and means that will help you develop the above mentioned aspects in a solid way.
