Hello! I’m Daniel, an Australian linguist and English teacher based in vibrant Rio de Janeiro.
My passion for languages (I speak Portuguese, Spanish, and more!) and years teaching across three continents—from Sydney to Saudi Arabia—help me connect deeply with students. Whether you’re mastering basics or polishing fluency, I blend linguistics expertise with real-world cultural insights.
When not teaching, I’m usually surfing Rio’s waves or hiking through nature—both reminders that learning, like the ocean, should be dynamic and joyful. Let’s make your English journey just as alive!
Ik als leerkracht
After studying languages and linguistics at university I trained as a teacher of English as a foreign language and started my first job at an English college in Sydney. There, I had the pleasure to teach students of all levels, ages, and backgrounds.
From there I came to Brazil where I've mostly taught private lessons to adults at their home or workplace as well as some group classes at a local English college. During this time I also spent a year away in Saudi Arabia giving group classes to young Arab men in the capital Riyadh.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
The content of our lessons will mostly depend on the student and their particular areas of interest, weaknesses and goals. As such, classes will be highly personalised and tailored to students' requirements.
As a language-learner myself, I am acutely aware of the struggles faced by students while trying to attain proficiency in their target language and I strive to address those problems through friendly conversation, exercises, and maybe a little homework too.
In summary our lessons will be focused and productive but also relaxed and friendly.

I've had the pleasure of taking several lessons with Daniel. What can I say, THE BEST TEACHER EVER! Very friendly, understanding, encouraging, but also challenging. Never a boring or useless lesson. Highly recommended!
