Hi, I'm Rachel!
My Portuguese-speaking friends call me Raquel [H-a-k-eu]. I'm a language teacher. I teach both English and Brazilian Portuguese. My first language is English, my second language is Spanish, and my third language is Brazilian Portuguese. With dual master's degrees in Portuguese Literature and Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL), I am trained in language acquisition and pedagogy. I currently live in Portland, Oregon, but have lived in Quito, São Paulo, and Recife! Click here to read about my teaching philosophy and approach.
I developed an online curriculum by combining academic and multimedia resources into fun learning experiences. The students who thrive working with me have an interpersonal motivation to learn the language and are comfortable using technology.
