Acerca de mí

Hi!
I‘m a 1st year PhD student at The Francis Crick Institute in London, previously having graduated with a bachelor's degree from the University of Oxford and an MSc from Imperial College London - both in biomedical sciences. My PhD research is focused on immunology and cancer, a field which I've also pursued in a range of labs in the UK and abroad.

I've been tutoring since high school, gradually moving from secondary school science and English lessons to tutoring undergraduate and postgraduate students, and English as a foreign language. For several years I've now also worked with an agency for academic applications tutoring - helping people of all age ranges successfully apply to the university or job of their dreams. Through this experience, I have developed a strong skillset in communicating complex ideas, adapting teaching strategies to each individual student, inciting motivation for science, and text editing anything from a personal statement to a master's dissertation.

I'm a German and English native speaker, but can communicate in Dutch if necessary!

I love learning and have always done my best to pass this on to any person I work with - by whichever strategy is necessary to get through to them.

Please don‘t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about me, my qualifications, my teaching style, or my availabilities!

UK University Applications (Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, etc.)

41.32 $ /h

Oxford and Cambridge are the UK’s most elite universities and, especially for a European student, far easier to reach with the proper support. This is what I am here to provide: help writing an ideal personal statement fit for a future Oxbridge offer holder, aid with UCAS, interview practice and advice on any possible question you could have. As a European Oxford student myself, I know the challenges and hardships of an Oxbridge application and aim to make the entire process easier for you. This will not only better your chances of securing an offer, but also make this already stressful time a bit less confusing.

Olá! Tudo bem? Prazer, meu nome é Paloma.

I am a Portuguese teacher, translator, proofreader, language lover, and lifelong learner.

I am originally from Recife, Brazil, and since 2020, I have discovered my passion for teaching the Portuguese language. Despite having an initial education in a different area, it was through learning languages and teaching my students that I developed my skills as a teacher. I have also pursued further university certificates in linguistics, Portuguese as a foreign language, teaching methodologies, and translation.

I have always been passionate about languages. In addition to Portuguese, I speak English and Spanish, and I am currently studying other languages (this is one of my hobbies).

My experience as a language learner has given me the essential tools to support my students on their journey to learning Portuguese.

Whether you are starting from scratch or looking to advance your fluency, I am here to help you speak with confidence and joy.

You decide how you want to learn — our classes can be in English or fully in Portuguese for total immersion! My goal is to create a supportive, engaging, and dynamic learning environment where you feel comfortable and motivated to achieve your best.

Why learn with me?
• Personalised lessons tailored to your goals and learning style
• A balance between structure and flexibility, so you stay on track while enjoying the process
• Engaging and interactive classes that incorporate real-life conversations, cultural insights, and fun exercises
• A patient, encouraging approach to keep you motivated and confident

In our first lesson, I will assess your level, learning preferences, and areas of improvement so we can create the best strategies to help you progress as quickly as possible.

If you do not see an available time slot that works for you, do not hesitate to message me — I will do my best to accommodate your schedule!

I cannot wait to meet you and be part of your language-learning journey! Schedule your first lesson, and let’s get started.

Learning a language doesn’t have to feel like an obligation. In my lessons, it becomes something you use: in real conversations, at work, at school, and in everyday life. I teach children, teenagers, and adults, always adapting to the age, level, and goals of the student. Through roleplays, simulations, and practical exercises tailored to you, you don’t just learn vocabulary and grammar, you build the confidence and skills to truly function in Dutch.

When we set an objective, we work toward it step by step. At the same time, we create a supportive space together where mistakes are part of growth. You can expect clear progress, personalized guidance, and lessons that help you move from understanding Dutch to confidently owning it.

Session 1 – The complete self-publishing process

Not sure if self-publishing is really for you?
Have you been told that your book doesn't fit into the publishing market?
Are you afraid to publish and make irreversible mistakes?

In this first session we will bring order, clarity and direction.

You'll understand the real publishing options available today and what self-publishing your work without relying on third parties truly entails. We'll analyze the responsibilities you assume, the control you gain, and the decisions you need to make before taking the plunge.

We will work in a clear and direct manner:

✔ Real publishing options and their differences
✔ What does being an independent author entail?
✔ ISBN, copyright and essential legal aspects
✔ How to properly prepare your manuscript before publishing it
✔ Common mistakes you should avoid

This session isn't technical yet. It's strategic.
You will leave with a complete vision, basic legal certainty, and the peace of mind of knowing exactly what your next step is.

Because publishing doesn't begin with uploading a file.
Start by making a decision with sound judgment.

¿Tienes algo que contar? Date el espacio para hacerlo, de manera segura y sin prejuicios. La palabra es uno de los medios que más ha perdurado en la historia, para narrarnos, entendernos y vivir más allá de nosotros. Por ello, en un tiempo donde la voz humana se va diluyendo en una amalgama de frases generadas por robots, trabajar un estilo propio es clave.

Con estas clases, podremos trabajar tu voz, corregir errores de sintaxis y gramática, o sencillamente tener a alguien más para desarrollar tu proyecto de escritura. ¡No lo dudes!
