I am a student in Geneva and I speak Portuguese since I’m a little kid because my parents are Brazilians. I also lived in Brazil for 5 years and now I give lessons in Geneva. I work with a method with my students where I adapt the lessons according to the needs of each person, using texts, classic grammar exercises, music and conversation.
