Bio
Native Brazilian, I started learning English when I was 10 years old. By the end of 2015, I passed the CELPIP exam in Canada with a score of 85% and had a 95% score at IELTS exam a few years before.

I have been working with different kinds of translations, editing and proofreading since 2016: mostly advertising, technical and academic translations for gratuation and doctorate students. I have also been working as a private English teacher for children and adults since then.

I used to work with people from several different countries, supporting data center services, developing and implementing IT projects for call centers for 12 years, so I have always been communicating in English with people from USA, UK, China, India, etc.

By the time I was 20, I graduated in Computer Science and a few years later I took an MBA course in Marketing, then I became a product manager and project manager with solid experience in data center services, technology infrastructure projects for large companies and IT/Telecom services portfolio management.

So, my specialized subject áreas are IT and Marketing, but I have also worked with law, advertising, engineering, subject areas.

I have also taught English to my own son. He’s 9 years old now and speaks English with people from Canada, Germany, England, USA and Norway.

I am a bit of a nerd and I've always been a great passionate fan of rock and music in general. I really like geek and pop culture.

I'm also interested in technology, music, politics, science, advertising, and I like to keep myself updated in all these subject areas by reading a lot.
