TEFL-certified American English teacher, motivator, IT professional, singer, and lover of languages. Hello! Thanks for visiting my profile. My name is Joel Snipes, and I'm an American living in São Paulo, Brazil. I'm TEFL-certified and began teaching online in 2020. I studied biology during college, traveled the world for a year prior to teaching, and have worked in technology for 12+ years. I specialize in intermediate and advanced students. I believe that after students learn the basic grammar and vocabulary in a language, they are ready to start taking 1-on-1 lessons with me. I've learned that determination and perseverance are keys to learning a language. Natural, effective communication is the goal, not perfection. I offer conversation lessons and lessons for IT professionals.
