About Wendy
Our ideal classroom is filled with students enthusiastically engaged in discussions and working together to solve a problem or understand a new concept. We believe in creating an atmosphere where my students are comfortable expressing themselves, are not afraid to make mistakes and are willing to challenge themselves to learn something new.
We believe it is crucial to adapt teaching to the needs and particular contexts of students in my classrooms and that is why we always contemplate a proficiency-based instruction that is aimed to promote task-based activities in the target language. It is evident to us that a culturally inclusive learning environment encourages all individuals to develop personal contacts, effective intercultural skills and creativity.

We use a well-defined 4-step model in order to integrate form in a proficiency-oriented approach. This guided interactive presentation normally takes the form of student repetitions of key phrases cued by the teacher, student-teacher role reversal, listening comprehension exercises, or discussions that anticipate the content of a reading. The goal is to enable the students to stretch their language abilities by using the new elements of target language in meaningful ways through the help and mediation of the teacher.
The second step focuses learners’ attention on some aspects of the language that were used during the presentation activity. I normally have students practice various verbs in a particular tense to formulate questions. The point of this step is to get learners to focus attention on the target form without needless elaboration or wasted time.
The third stage is the co-construction. With my students’ help, I construct a grammatical explanation to understand the target form practised in the second stage exercises. During this step, my students are guided to hypothesise, guess, make predictions or come to generalisations about the target form, without me overwhelming them with superfluous grammatical knowledge.
The last step is the extension activity. Examples are information-gap activities, role-play situations, dramatizations, games, authentic writing projects, or simulations of real-life situations. In each case, learners have the opportunity to practise and use the target form in a way that mimics situations encountered in real life.

Tenho aulas com a Wendy á cerca de 3 meses e desde então o meu nível de conversação tem melhorado substancialmente. A Wendy é dinâmica e procura sempre adaptar as aulas às necessidades do aluno, sugere técnicas e exercícios adequados ás minhas expectativas assim como exercícios e leituras suplementares para fazer fora das aulas. Aconselho vivamente as aulas da Wendy.
A Wendy é uma professora nativa de inglês que é super competente, responsável e empenhada no ensino da lingua inglesa. Não tenho qualquer hesitação em a recomendar à comunidade da Superprof. Muito obrigado!
I had IELTS GT lessons with Paul for nearly 12 months and I cannot recommend him enough. After failing at my first attempt with an overall band of 5.5, I made the right decision to seek the help of a professional tutor. That's when I found Paul. He started looking at my linguistic deficiencies and put in place a number of structured lessons, topic by topic, that highlighted the requirements of IELTS for each task. He also explain to me how to write a well-structured essay. I managed to have an overall score of 8.0 at my second attempt and that's thanks to the valuable assistance of Paul. Without him, I couldn't have reached my goal of moving to Canada.
"He is a professional teacher, always attentive to the details. highly recommended"
I have had the pleasure of working with Paul for many years. I have always been impressed by his outstanding work ethic and professionalism, as well as his incredible passion for teaching languages. I am constantly inspired by his ability to teach different languages one after another, changing from one language to the other on a moment's notice. His desire to ensure all his students succeed in learning continues to amaze and inspire me.
