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.
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! 🌈

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.

Amalia is the best English teacher which I have ever had before! She is so polite and friendly to me, also all the time she gives me many ideas and phrases how to speak as a native speaker and improve my language. I look forward to have a new class and share my own stories and emotions about any topics which I wish to speak. Moreover she has her own huge experience and can support any conversation. Speaking about my feeling, I truly feel like I speak with close friend because of madly comfortable and pleasant atmosphere. I believe that I will continue to have lessons with Amalia and get more knoweledge by spending time with her.
