Paula C.
My name is Paula, Brazilian and born in Rio de Janeiro. I have been a preschool teacher for 32 years. I trained as a teacher at Colégio Ignácio Azevedo do Amaral, in Rio de Janeiro. I teach Portuguese language classes in various types of school environments, for adults and children aged between 5 and 30. My goal is to make learning fun, engaging and interactive. My hobbies include reading, watching series, running, swimming and meditating. I love traveling and cooking too!
