When I received a phone call from Jenny requesting for a student to help teach her Portuguese for her Brazilian travels, the first person to come to my mind was outstanding student Rafael Sobrinho.
What can I say, Rafael is always there to help me with computer commands and program information, he helps me with my own English language and grammar (quite embarrassing really being an Australian myself). Whenever students need help communicating messages because they’re new at the school, Rafael is right beside them as an interpreter and he is always asking if he can be of any help. He is very handy to have at the school and was definitely the right person nominated to teach Australian resident Jenny Morris, Portuguese for her multiple visits to Brazil for healing practices.
It just goes to show how well Rafael is doing with his IELTS Course. If his English language was not up to scratch, communicating Portuguese with Jenny would be extremely difficult. He thinks it would be impossible.
Jenny will be attending our school for regular Portuguese lessons with Rafael before and after her trip to Brazil in June. If you see her around the school please make her feel welcome.
Happy Easter!
