Personal Description:
As an assistant professor in different countries overseas and as a lecturer/tutor in the UK universities (Oxford, Cambridge and UCL), I have had the opportunity to teach undergraduate and postgraduate students in a variety of subjects ranging from organic and medicinal chemistry to drug design. While the courses and students may have differed, the evaluation of my teaching has remained consistently excellent and I became a fellow in teaching with Higher Education Academy (HEA) in the UK.
I am a regular reviewer for several international journals in Chemistry and a proofreader/reviewer for PhD/Master dissertations/ research proposals.

Teaching Experience:
I have 17 years' teaching experience in several countries. Through this, I have learnt to interact with people from many different pedagogic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Graduating from a school of pharmacy has helps me to understand and teach topics related to chemistry and the related biological sciences, and to link this knowledge to the courses in the life sciences. I have a broad set of teaching interests and have been willing to teach courses that extend beyond my core research focus on organic/medicinal chemistry and drug design. As part of a teaching role I have been interested in developing all aspects of new courses - including lecture content and tutorials, practical classes, and methods of assessment.

Personal Description:
My name is Inez and I am a professional with more than 20 years of experience in teaching several age groups and managing schools and school personnel. I love to teach, learn with the process and help others achieve their goals and abilities in communicating with others using another language.

Teaching Experience:
During the time I lived in Brazil, where I am originally from, I taught in local Elementary and High Schools, prior to founding my own private language school.
I am extremely proud to say that most of my students have achieved high standards in their professions and careers and to some of them, I am still offering advice and support.
To continue my development and advance in my career, I moved to the USA where I also worked as a teacher and became a Headteacher/School Director.

Tutoring Approach:
I have been a teacher more than half of my life. It has been a way of living to teach and translate to all ages, to my family and friends and to those who don't speak much of the English or the Portuguese language and to become an instrument of facilitation for people in order to understand communication, living situations and experiences in their lives.
At this moment, I am prioritising by teaching through online classes only .
I focus on conversational Portuguese, unless you are taking a GCSE or another business/school like directive. Even if you have basic or no knowledge of Portuguese, within a few classes you will be starting to speak and be able to start to express yourself in the language.
Grammar is approached but only with the intent of you being able to construct your sentences and understand what takes it to fluently speak.
I can offer a free 30-minute lesson for those who would like to try my classes and discuss their expectations in relation to learning the language.
