About Me
italki teacher since Nov 26, 2021InterestsFilms & TV SeriesAnimation & ComicsFoodHistoryArt
My name is Gabriel, and I am a passionate polyglot language teacher with over six years of experience. I speak Portuguese (C2), French (C2), Spanish (C1), English (C1), German (C1), Japanese (B1), Russian (B1), Italian (B1), Chinese (A2), and Bosnian (A2).
I was "adopted" and lived with a French family during most of my teenage years, attended French school with excellent grades, and later studied languages at the University of Caen.
In 2019, I was invited to speak at the World Normandy for Peace about the connection between language learning and peacebuilding. I teach with energy, clarity, and intercultural awareness.Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching languages for over six years, primarily as a private tutor, working with students of different ages and backgrounds.
My experience includes:
• Online private French teacher (A1–B2)
• Language tutor for exchange students in Caen, France (3 years)
• French tutor in Germany
• French teacher for intensive courses at Language Center PPta (Brazil)
• Online teaching experience with children (5–13 years old)
• Private Portuguese teacher in France
Also, I gave a speech on “Language Learning and Interculturalism” at the Forum Mondial Normandie pour la Paix (World Forum Normandy for Peace) on June 6, 2019 My lessons & teaching style
My classes are 100% designed to my students and their needs. I have some "base" material but everything else is made to you depending on your needs, interests and goals. I am very attentive to details and take notes and feedback during our lessons to be sure that you can revise it at your own pace, and apply it further!
My teaching approach is inspired by the strategies I used to learn more than ten languages myself. Over the years, I refined my methods through experience teaching, as well as through meaningful exchanges with my own teachers and polyglots.
I use a highly visual and auditory approach to make lessons a dynamic interaction, far from traditional approaches: you live it.My teaching material

TeacherBeing a foreign language teacher with multiple combinations (teaching French, Portuguese, English, and Spanish through French, Portuguese, English, Spanish, German, …) made me an open-minded and flexible professional, patient, with attention to detail and sensitive to cultural subtleties. It has improved my organizational and time management skills as well as my presentation and communication skills.

So happy to have found Gabriel. He's so easy to talk to, even when my beginner brain can barely string a sentence together. Very patient and calm, and always helps me find the word I need. He's also very good at breaking down the tricky french pronunciation into syllables that are more manageable. Thank you!

Gabriel is an excellent teacher. I feel I’ve made a lot of progress since starting! His lessons are always carefully planned and he takes time to explain when I make grammatical errors- I’ve already recommended him to friends!

It was great to talk to Gabriel again, we talked mostly about our activities and languages. Gabriel provided helpful feedback and corrected mistakes. Thanks for a productive class!

Gabriel was very patient and helpful. I hadn't spoken French in a long time but he made me feel comfortable and encouraged me to speak more. His method adapts to the learner's needs, gives constructive feedback, and he has a friendly approach to language learning.

Gabriel has an immaculate approach to teaching languages. He is so fast to pick up on your mistakes and he shows you how to express yourself correctly later at the end of the lesson.
