Do you want to improve your CHINESE, ENGLISH or PORTUGUESE skills? Here I am! I am a language lover and traveler. I am patient and supportive in teaching and would try my best to help. I am open to any type of study method as long as it works the best for you! I can help you overcome difficulties in speaking and I am sure we will never be short of topic and achieve your language goals!Me as a Teacher
I love language in general and I speak several languages myself. I have taught English and Chinese in schools. I have TEFL language teaching certificate and can also help students with TOEFL or HSK studies. I also teach conversational Portuguese. In general I want to help students improve their language learning in the most efficient way possible. I am patient and always encourage you to speak and practice more. We can also use book materials to study if you want. I am happy to see you making every progress and I am always here to help! (Age 10+ only)My lessons & teaching style
I think focusing on conversation is very important. We can have casual yet productive class environment. I can help students to correct pronunciation and grammar while discussing on different topics. I can also make simulations with students and practice in different real life situations. I want the language learning process to be practical and efficient. Also when it comes to new words or anything important, I like to write them down for students through text which can be quite helpful. I would also like to introduce students cultural background and history since they are super related with language. It can also make our class more fun. Besides that, using book material is also welcomed.My teaching material

Billy is wonderful teacher. He is so knowledgeable about so many topics and we are never without conversation topics. He always has fun lessons prepared and my daughter and I look forward to our weekly lessons and conversations. I highly recommend Billy he is one of the most friendly, kind, and intelligent people I’ve ever met. We have learned so much in such a short time about the language as well culture.
