Sobre mim

Olá! (English text below)

Meu nome é Jody. Originalmente da África do Sul, moro e ensino inglês no Brasil desde 2010.

Em geral, prefiro a abordagem comunicativa do ensino, ou seja, o uso de conversa, repetição e equivalência, mais do que ensinar regras / estruturas de gramática. Eu já ensinei adolescentes e adultos em uma variedade de escolas de cursos de inglês, além de ter muitos estudantes particulares ao longo dos anos.

A coisa mais importante que descobri em meus anos de ensino é que os aprendentes de línguas aprendem melhor quando se eles se divertem, sem se sentir pressionados. Então, para melhores resultados, tento fazer minhas aulas lúdicas e deixar meus alunos definir seu próprio ritmo.

Além do inglês de pra conversa casual, tenho experiência com inglês "business" e também com orientação/preparação para a o teste TOEIC.

Sou extremamente versátil e trabalharei com você para descobrir seus pontos fortes e fracos relativos, para ajudá-lo em áreas que precisam ser melhoradas.

Não hesite! - reserve uma aula comigo o mais rápido possível e comece!

Hi there!

My name is Jody. Originally from South Africa, I've been living and teaching English in Brazil since 2010.

I generally prefer the communicative approach to teaching, which is to say, using repetition and equivalence more than teaching grammar rules/structures. I have taught teenagers and adults in a variety of English Course Schools, as well as had many private students over the years.

The most important thing I have discovered in my years of teaching is that language learners do best when they are enjoying themselves while they learn, without feeling pressured. So for best results, I try to make my classes fun, and let my students set their own pace.

Besides every-day English, I've had experience teaching "business English", and have also helped guide people in preparation for taking the TOEIC test.

I am extremely versatile and will work with you to discover your relative strengths and weaknesses in order to help you in areas that most need improvement.

Don't hesitate! - book a class with me as soon as possible and get started!

Currículo

briefcaseExperiência profissional

2015 - 2018
Teaching in Brazil 4
"Influx" English Course - Salvador, Brazil
My favourite of all the places I've worked. They combine the lexical approach with the communicative approach, and study with language "chunks" (collocations) as opposed to single-word vocabulary lists, and including any type of 'fun' in the classes is encouraged. Very effective.
2014 - 2015
Teaching in South Africa
"Let's Learn English" English Course - Cape Town, South Africa
My first experience teaching non-Brazilians, which in some cases forced me to be creative in order to break the language barrier. However, I mostly taught advanced students so this was not usually a problem.
2012 - 2014
Teaching in Brazil 3
"Manhattan" English Course - Salvador, Brazil
Here the structural approach was combined with the communicative approach. I saw how much more effective classes were and how much happier the students, when using the communicative approach, and was forever sold on it.
2012 - 2012
Teaching in Brazil 2
"Achieve Languages" English Course - Salvador, Brazil
A new school with an entirely different approach which had potential, but unfortunately the school did not stay open for very long.
2010 - 2012
Teaching in Brazil 1
"Skill Idiomas" English Course - Salvador, Brazil
My first opportunity to teach English - an eye-opening experience.
