About Me
italki teacher since Nov 17, 2016
I`m passionate about languages and that`s one of the reasons why I decided to become a teacher. I`m from Brazil, but I`m currently living in Malta. Books are also my passion as well as travelling. Being able to connect with people from different cultures is one the things that fascinates me the most.
Me as a Teacher
I know that learning a new language can be quite tough sometimes, so I always try to make the process as comfortable as possible to the learner. My lessons are flexible and designed according to my students` needs. My main goal is to guide my students so they can become independent and feel confident enough to communicate in any situation.
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are designed according to my students` needs. I usually use well-known coursebooks as well as authentic materials, such as films, youtube video, TED talks, etc. Our focus will be "communication", which means that we will integrate listening, reading, writing and speaking in a practical and dynamical way that will allow you to communicate well, regardless the situation.

I just love Mariana! She's a great teacher and a hilarious person. You'll definitely have fun taking lessons from her, and you're sure to progress as well. Mariana only spoke in Portuguese today and I understood almost all of it! Can't wait for another lesson!
