My professional experience
I am a lecturer and a language coach with over 12 years of experience in teaching.
I currently teach at EDHEC Business School in France. In Denmark, I have previously taught in DIS as a guest lecturer.
I also have previous experience in leadership, as a film and multimedia producer in international co-productions and as a company administrator.
I am originally from Brazil, but I grew up bilingual in English. I have always been passionate about communication.
I have lived in different countries: Brazil (22 years), the USA (1 year), France (8 years), and Denmark (1 year and counting). To add to my life experience, I started researching cross-cultural studies and teaching on the topic.
Why languages and cultural coaching?
I started learning foreign languages when I was 18: first German, then French, then Spanish, and finally Danish.
Learning languages gave me deep insight into how challenging it can be, and although perseverance is important, how true fluency goes beyond it. Most of all, it gave me a deep desire to share the joy of learning to communicate in an entirely new way.
I also lived in different countries: Brazil (22 years), the USA (1 year), France (8 years), and Denmark (1 year and counting). To add to my life experience, I started researching cross-cultural studies and teaching on the topic.
I still love teaching people from different nationalities to help them understand their patterns and overcome their challenges. My mission is to help students break through their patterns and rebuild their relationship with the language, so they can new heights in their level of communication.
