Catarina Daltrop

As an ESL tutor, I'm excited to share my passion for language and culture with you. My lessons will be tailored to fit your individual needs, using a communicative approach that focuses on practical language skills and real-life communication you are likely to use in your everyday. This means we can discuss current topics and your interests to make your conversational English achieve a natural flow. I’m also trilingual in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, which helps me connect with students from different backgrounds. I hold a CELTA certification, and I incorporate various methods and techniques from the program in my teaching. These include:
Task-Based Learning - meaningful tasks that require you to use the language naturally, helping to build your confidence.
Controlled Practice - We’ll start with structured activities to ensure you grasp key concepts before moving on to more open-ended practice.
Feedback and Reflection - After each lesson, I'll provide constructive feedback, helping you identify strengths and areas for improvement.
Use of Visual Aids and Technology - using multimedia resources to make learning more interactive and enjoyable.

I’m here to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment where you can practice and grow. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, my goal is to help you gain confidence and fluency, whether you're preparing for travel, work, or personal enrichment. I hope to join you on your English journey and I can't wait to see you progress. I am always available to answer any questions and provide extra resources!
