Information about Carlos
I teach all levels, covering all areas of learning (phonetics, grammar, writing and conversation for initiated students, etc.) in a patient, dedicated, organized way. I use a well-known book and very conventional methods (no miracles here) with a lot of tailoring. I can give you the relevant materials for the course, either Portuguese or Brazilian ones, according to your option. For advanced students and everyone else, I can introduce you to aspects of Portuguese culture and history.
I practice reasonable rates for quality teaching. You can have the best discount if the lesson is not in the evening or weekend (peak times) and/or if you travel to me (Turnpike Lane) or to a number of locations where I work (Putney Bridge, Stoke Newington, Angel, and others). Rates vary according to the distance (from N15) and time of the day - considering blocks of 1,5 or 2 hours. However, blocks of two hours in skype are even cheaper. Please refer to what sort of time you need, in your inquiry. Please note that the fee shown is just indicative of the minimum hourly rate.
I am 47, Portuguese, with considerable experience in teaching.
Also available for one-to-one tuition, translations from English to Portuguese or vice versa, proofreading, abstracts and editing.
Ensino inglês a portugueses, brasileiros, moçambicanos, angolanos e outras pessoas de língua materna portuguesa que estejam a iniciar a sua aprendizagem na lingua inglesa.
Availability: We can find a convenient time to meet our schedules.
Willing to travel: 4 miles
Experience: Started to teach in 1994. Started to teach Portuguese in 2008.

Carlos is a great teacher with a good sense of humor:) We started on January and thanks to Carlos my level of Portuguese has already improved.
He prepares for every class various articles so the classes are not boring. We work not only on grammar but on writing and vocabulary as well which is great.

Carlos is a wonderfully accommodating tutor__able to retain a strict focus upon material scheduled for the tutorial whilst maintaining a conversational, spontaneous feel to our interactions. As such, I always leave class feeling that my Portuguese is enriched by new grammar assimilated as well as `real world` expression. He has also been very helpful when recommending films so that this same dual aspect is simply translated into home-study.
