Hi! I’m Brenda, an ESL teacher from Canada with a 150-hour TESOL certificate from Arizona State University. I’ve been teaching English online for 3.5 years, but I’ve spent most of my life teaching — in both dance and fitness, helping people grow in confidence and skill.
I’ve worked with teenagers and adults worldwide, helping learners prepare for Cambridge and IELTS exams, build confidence for job interviews, and communicate effectively in business meetings and presentations. Every lesson is adapted to your personal goals, learning style, and pace.
Having lived in Canada, England, and now Portugal, I know what it’s like to step into a new culture and language. I understand how communication changes across cultures — and how rewarding it feels when you can finally express yourself freely in English.
I believe a good teacher is a guide. My purpose is to help you gain the vocabulary, fluency, and confidence to communicate naturally — until you no longer need me.
> “A teacher is one who makes himself progressively unnecessary.” – Thomas Carruthers
I look forward to meeting you and helping you reach your English goals — fluently, confidently, and with ease!

Brenda, Amazing! She has everything organised, she focus on your goals and is an amazing teacher and understand your weakness and try to work on them and your goal at the same time, which is amazing, because you can work in both and know how to improve. She is a 5 start teacher for sure.

Ho apprezzato molto le lezioni con Brenda, insegnante preparata che offre lezioni dinamiche ed interessanti che implementano la capacità di parlare inglese sia con note di grammatica applicate a contesti reali che con la conoscenza di nuove parole e forme di costruzione della frase. Il tutto in un ambiente divertente e costruttivo.
