About Me

Interest topicTravelFoodScience
A Filipina living in Brazil. I was an international flight attendant before I decided to live here! That´s why I can´t wait to meet people from different nationalities again. I may have been to your country! This we shall find out together. I have a background in health sciences since I have a degree in Nursing.
I love being outdoors in nature, finding scrumptious food spots, and singing with my ukulele.
I am also a student here studying Brazilian Portuguese.
REMINDER:
I will be OFF italki in October and November because I will be traveling around my home country!
We still have August and September for classes together! 💎
Me as a Teacher
I LOVE the feeling of being able to share knowledge and motivate my learners with our conversations!
One thing that you may like about me is that I have a calm demeanor and a neutral accent. My students say that they feel comfortable speaking with me because of these reasons. I see them improve and become more confident and it's the most rewarding feeling.
I have worked in a Waldorf School for little children and I used to volunteer to school-age kids in an afterschool program in my city back home. I welcome feedback and suggestions so don't hesitate to share them with me!
My lessons & teaching style
Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, you´ll definitely be sure to speak at least 50% of the time. I believe this is the most important aspect in learning a language-- Producing it.
-To start we will list down daily dialogue you have around you focusing on vocabulary and
expressions.
-If you are a beginner we will start with simple topics. I will give you time so you can form your thoughts comfortably.
- We will delve deeper into topics that you find most challenging.
- I will be your best cheerleader!
Amalia isn't just my English teacher; she's a true friend and the most patient language partner ever! 🌟 Her kindness and encouragement make our conversations feel like chatting with a buddy. She never hesitates to help me improve at my own pace, and her emotional support is invaluable. Grateful for Amalia, the best language journey companion! 🌈

Amalia is a great teacher. She is a very kind, polite and competent person. After looking for the most appropriate teacher on this platform I chose Amalia. Our lessons are easy and useful. It’s a pleasure for me to have English lessons with her despite on the whole my working day. You don’t notice how time flies! Amalia is a great interlocutor. She can turn any topic into a long conversation. I speak a lot in our classes. The teacher watches your language and pay attention to pronunciation, grammar, structure of sentences. She every time follows your thoughts and try to help you to express your speech correctly and fully. Amalia supports you both in English and in your life and it’s a very valuable.
