Hi, I’m Josh, a native English speaker from London, now living in Brazil. With a degree in Hispanic Studies and Portuguese, and experience working in project management and recruitment, I’ve lived in four different countries and speak four languages (still learning more!). My background in languages helps me understand the challenges of becoming fluent. As a TEFL-certified teacher (Level 5), I’m here to make learning English fun, dynamic, and personal. From my time working in a bookshop to my passion for travel, we’ll never run out of things to talk about. Let’s make your language journey exciting—I can't wait to meet you!Ik als leerkracht
I hold a Level 5 TEFL qualification from The TEFL Academy and have completed a 10-hour teaching practice course. With four years of teaching experience and a strong background in linguistics and literature, I’m well-equipped to help you improve pronunciation, naturalness, and fluency in English. If you're a native Spanish or Portuguese speaker, I can easily identify and address any interference from your first language. Having worked in a London bookshop, I also bring a love for idioms and expressions that will enhance your language learning experience. Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
My lessons are fully adapted to your needs, ensuring a personalized approach to help you reach your language goals. There is no strict structure—we can work on specific materials or have conversations tailored to your interests and objectives. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to advance your English, I’ll adjust the pace and content to suit your level. For lower levels, I can seamlessly incorporate Portuguese when necessary, ensuring clear communication. I’m here to cater to you, making sure your learning experience is both comfortable and stimulating!Mijn lesmateriaal
