Interest topicMuziekScienceReizen
My name is André, and I was born and raised in Porto. In addition to languages and teaching, I enjoy discussing foreign cultures, geography, food, music, cinema, science, nature, and sustainability. In my free time, I like to read, play the guitar, travel, and engage in sports.
Ik als leerkracht
I began teaching European Portuguese online in 2017. Since then, I've had the opportunity to conduct over 4,000 lessons and collaborate with more than 200 students from diverse countries and backgrounds. As each student is unique, I strive to meet their needs, expectations, and interests in my lessons. Structure, discipline, and consistency are crucial elements, but I also encourage students to be inquisitive and ask questions.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
In a typical lesson, you will learn new vocabulary and grammar, read a text, check pronunciation, listen to a track, and engage in short dialogues or longer conversations. Alternatively, we can focus on a specific skill or prepare for a CAPLE exam like CIPLE, DAPLE or DIPLE.
Upon agreement, there will be homework after each lesson to review the content and practice listening/writing skills.
The necessary materials and notes from each lesson will be shared in a cloud service.

CAPLE Exam Experience - Italki - 2024I´m sending attached a screenshot from my italki profile showing my experience in preparing students for CAPLE Exams. In total, I have 124 completed lessons where I prepared students for the 4 areas of the exams (reading, writing, listening and speaking) from A2 to B2 levels - CIPLE, DIPLE and DIPLE. I hope it can be considered so I can keep offering this type of lesson.

The reason I said that the teacher was not present for the full lesson time is because the Italki platform had a lot of technical issues. The teacher succeeded to connect 5 min late and afterwards, we had to reconnect several times. I lost at least 10-15 min.

André is a very friendly and supportive tutor. He made the horror of my first European Portuguese lesson go away and was very helpful to keep a conversation going. Looking forward to the next lesson.
