Teacher Pri
I’ve always enjoyed studying, and at a young age (five years old) I started learning English, Japanese, and Spanish. By the way, this is one of the best times to start learning a new language, parents take note!
After finishing college, I got a job at an American company, an opportunity that wouldn’t have been possible if I didn’t know how to speak all those languages!
The life experience was fantastic, and I had the opportunity to meet incredible people and places. But something was still missing…
Despite it being the job that many considered the “dream job,” inside I felt that I hadn’t fully found myself… I suffered some family losses and thought: Man, if I died tomorrow, is this what I wanted to have done with my life?
I wanted something new, and at first I was afraid. Would I have the courage to trade the certain for the uncertain and start from scratch? And wouldn’t you know it, I did?!? I saved up some money and said goodbye to my job without looking back.
In the meantime, a friend suggested I do a postgraduate degree in English Language, and I decided to go for it. In that course, EVERYONE was a teacher, except ME!
My experience working with these heroes (yes, being a teacher in Brazil is an act of heroism) made me fall in love with the idea of teaching, and I decided to submit my resume to a language school.
On the first day, minutes before class, I wanted to run away in fear! Hahaha! But as soon as the class started, I was overcome with a feeling of accomplishment, and it was as if God had sent a white dove my way and said: This is what you were looking for!!!
Since then, I haven’t stopped studying. It’s been over 17 years of academic study (two undergraduate degrees, five postgraduate degrees, two master’s degrees), courses in the field of education at the University of Cambridge, and many international tests.
A few years ago, I opened my own language school, and even against all odds, I succeeded! I have students in several countries, many employees, and I’m very proud of my school, which grows every day.
Come embark on this journey with me. It will be a pleasure to help you achieve your dream too!
