WELCOME TO MY PROFILE
<<<I'm AVAILABLE most of the time so please choose the time that's more convenient for you>>>
Hello! My name is Elcidio and I'm 23 years old. I was born and raised in Mozambique. I really love learning new languages and meeting new people. I currently speak Portuguese as a native speaker, english, french, spanish and I've recently started learning mandarin chinese. I'm also passionate about music and art. My favorite artist is Malangatana. I like reading mindfulness books, business books and fiction. I also like to discuss about politics, science, nature and the environment. I'm also an entrepreneur, I started my business "a hardware store" in June 2021.Me as a Teacher
I've got over 3 years of experience teaching Portuguese and English online, and before that I used to be an English tutor for adults, which gives me 7 years of experience. I'm very patient with my students and I encourage them to make mistakes because that's the only way they can learn. Details are very important to me, so I tend to focus on them; things such as pronunciation, accent mark( if we are writing ), sentence structure are very important. I like to correct without interrupting so I usually let my students finish their sentence before giving them a tip.My lessons & teaching style
Having a private tutor allows you to have personalized classes:
just a few rules:
- Don't be shy, you learn by making mistakes.
- if you don't understand something, ask right away.
- try to forget your native language for a while
I offer personalized lessons that are designed to meet your goals. In my lessons I like to use texts, audios and images. I teach group classes starting from 2 to 8 students.
<<<THANKS A LOT for going through my profile;
Hope to see you in one of my classes>>>My teaching material
