友達と話しているように日本語を学びましょう！ I’m not like a teacher teacher, but a friendly tutor or a friend even! That’s my main reason to be here actually. I want you to learn/practice real Japanese without any hesitation or concern and talk to me about whatever you want, like you are talking to your friend! I have a teaching experience since 2019. I’ve met a lot of amazing students since then :) I became friends with some of them. It’s one of the best ways to learn a language and keep your language levels without any pressure. We can talk about literally ANYTHING! I really want to answer all the questions you’ve got as much as possible :)

Since 2010 I've empowered great learners through language and learning - no matter the level! I've been teaching since 2010 to teenagers and adults. I have an extensive professional experience in the teaching field, and I’ve worked in schools, language centers, and as an online private tutor. Currently, I'm a Portuguese teacher at a school in Lisbon, teaching students from the 8th to 12th grade, and I also teach online to students from different nationalities. What I love most about being a teacher is that I don't feel like I'm working; I have fun in every class with my students. Teaching comes naturally to me, and I love being able to share what I've learned with others, while also feeling that I am constantly learning and improving after each class.

I am a very friendly and patient teacher. I’ve been a language teacher for more than 20 years and I love it! I taught students from one-year-old kids to adults in person. For online lessons, I usually teach students from eight-year-old to adults. There's nothing like seeing my students getting excited about learning Japanese in my class. It gives me such a sense of accomplishment. My motto for learning Japanese is to make mistakes without worrying too much and to speak a lot in Japanese. Have fun with it :)
