Hi everyone! I’m Elis, 50 years old. I'm from Ibitinga, in the state of São Paulo and I’ve been teaching English since I was 20. Learning this amazing language has changed my life in so many positive ways that it makes me really happy to help others experience the same through English. And this is exactly what keeps me motivated! I’m also a big believer in lifelong learning, which only makes me more excited about teaching. Becoming a TOEFL tutor is a new adventure for me, so I can’t wait to learn everything about it and help my students achieve their dreams.

Cheers!

Hi there, folks! I'm Rodrigo from Minas and I'm 48. Because of music (more specifically Rock'n'Roll and all its subgenres) I fell in love with the English language. At school, in my teens, I was lucky to have two teachers who helped me develop a great love for literature and critical thinking. They changed my life with their passion for teaching and now they are my inspiration. That's why I've been a teacher for 15 years and my ultimate goal, having in mind a Henry Adams' quote, is affecting eternity by helping my students achieve their best. And in order to accomplish this, I have to achieve my best as well and that's why I'm here. The beauty of it all lies exactly in the knowing of this: we never stop learning. Let's exchange some experiences!

Hey, there! I'm Lucas, and I'm 28yo. I was born and live in Manaus, Am, but I was raised in the countryside, a small town called Parintins, known for holding the stunning folklore festival. Despite my age, I've been teaching for quite some time (13 years),  and what motivates me is the power being in a classroom provides me with for changing the world through education. I've been able to help people who, like me, needed English as a way to change things around and to impact our communities positively.

Hello there! I'm Felippe, 43 years old. I was born and raised in Pindamonhangaba, São Paulo (not counting a 'brief' stint of five years as an infant in Aquidauana, MS).

I've been an English teacher for the past 25 years, and what motivates me is knowing that I can help people achieve their goals and fulfill their dreams. Also, the more academic aspect of language acquisition and learning also fascinates me, which drives me even further to best myself and become the best teacher / trainer I could possibly become.

Hi, everyone! I'm Carla, 37 yo. I was born, raised, and still live in Salvador-Bahia.
My motivation to be a teacher is similar to Monike's; it gives me great pleasure to see and know I was able to help my students achieve their dreams. I've been working with academics for years - professors, students, and researchers - and every milestone they reach using English, from publishing articles to traveling abroad due to getting a grant or scholarship and everything in between and beyond, I know I had a hand in that and it makes me proud of them. To go far, go together :)

I`m Monike, 38 years old. I was born in Goiania, but now live in Miami, the USA.
What motivates me about being a teacher? Seeing my students` progress and success. Nothing beats that feeling of "I helped that person". :)
