David Alves Barbosa
EFL/ESL Teacher
36, carioca, Botafogo fan,
Luna's dad and Mayne's hubby
Teaching English as a foreign language since 2010, when I was still in the third year of college at UERJ (University of the State of Rio de Janeiro), where I studied between 2007 and 2012.
I've taught in some renowned language schools where I gained a lot of experience and I made many friends among students and co-workers.
I was never the strict teacher, nor the most orthodox, when it comes to following ideas in which I believed little (or nothing). I just couldn't cope with the fact that many students finished the course and didn't actually feel safe to use the language...
In 2016, two students who had dropped out from the school where I taught my last classes, plastered in a fragile and outdated method, gave me the opportunity to teach English my own way in private lessons...

Other Services
Teaching group and individual lessons to private students and in the language schools where I have worked.
I maintain a very solid base of satisfied people who trust me and always recommend my services.
Due to the professional attitude, competence, good presentation and organizational skills, I remain in the in-company English market until now. Honoring contracts with companies in the most diverse areas to help them provide solid development work to their stakeholders.
Professionalism, delivery, punctuality and attention to detail have been allowing me to provide translation services, training, consultancy, and run interviews in selection processes in English for several companies in various segments.
