About Me
italki teacher since Feb 17, 2020InterestsMusicWritingReadingTravelFilms & TV Series
Hello! My name is Tatianna, but call me Tati! I’ve been teaching English and Portuguese for 9 years, 5 of them online. Before that, I tried being a lawyer—but quickly realized my passion was elsewhere. A year of volunteer work across Europe led me to teaching, and I never looked back.
Since then, I’ve lived in China, Europe, and Argentina, while traveling through South America, Southeast Asia, and beyond. I’m always on the move, teaching as I go. Outside the classroom, I love literature, running, and days at the beach. I also speak Spanish and French, and I’m currently learning Italian.
I’ve worked with children, teenagers, adults, and corporate learners. I taught at different language schools in Brazil and spent a year teaching in China. I’ve been teaching on iTalki for about 5 years.
For Portuguese, I’m a native speaker and prepare my own lesson materials. I have structured lessons for any level or learning style, but I also create fully customized lessons.
For English, I’m CELTA-certified and experienced in general English, Business English, and exam preparation. I tailor lessons to your goals and preferred style. Prefer a coursebook? I can provide one. Prefer something different? I’ll design lessons with authentic, practical materials.
Are you tired of repeating the same type of lesson, or following a coursebook that feels too easy—or too hard? I will personalize your lessons. We’ll build a student–teacher connection that helps you grow confidence and tell me what you...My teaching material

Tati is very professional and is very skilled at a structured curriculum. I asked her to be firm and she does not disappoint. I need that to balance me out when it comes to learning the language. Can not recommend her enough.
