Diogo T
CELTA and TEFL Certified English Teacher with 10+ years of experience
Hi there! I'm teacher Dio and I have been a teacher for over a decade. I love what I do - I am passionate about languages. I speak 3 languages (Portuguese, Spanish and of course, English). I've lived in Germany, Ireland, and I just recently moved to Spain. I am telling you this because that means I KNOW how learning a language works.
Something that is important to know is that you DON'T need to live in an English-speaking country to learn English effectively. Everything really is all about you taking some minutes of your day to study and to surround yourself with the language! I am a certified teacher and my experience over the years shows that you don't need to be brilliant, you just need to be committed in order to learn another language.
Some other info about me:
I am certified by the Cambridge University (CELTA), and I also hold a TEFL Certificate. I have been teaching English for over 10 years, and I have helped students from all around the world. Currently I offer two main courses:
- CONVERSATIONAL ENGLISH - This course focuses on fluency, pronunciation, learning a lot of new vocabulary and preparing presentations about different topics! - There are lots of different topics and you can choose from!
- IELTS & FCE/CAE EXAM PREPARATION - I have a 25-lesson course that will teach you EVERYTHING you need to know to pass the IELTS/CAE exams with flying colors! - In addition to that, I have a lot of extra materials you can use to improve your grammar and writing skills!
If your English level isn't very high, we can also discuss a course that will be aimed to give you a solid base so that you feel confident to express yourself in English.
Thank you so much for reading through this page and I look forward to meeting you!

I attend Diogo's class once a week, and for me, taking his class is like having a relaxed conversation with a friend. It feels as comfortable as catching up with a friend every week. Apart from that, there is still a lot of learning each week. During our classes, we cover different topics, and I can choose the ones I like or find interesting. The content of the course materials is mostly engaging and diverse. The only thing that adds a bit of pressure is the biweekly assignments. Unlike typical writing assignments, these weekly tasks focus more on how I can present the key points and express my thoughts and opinions effectively. For me, practicing speaking is not just about talking but also about articulating my thoughts. In this regard, even though the assignments can be a bit challenging, they are incredibly helpful and practical. I highly recommend taking Diogo's classes.

Today was my first conversation lesson with Diogo. We talked about happiness and extended to deeper topics in a social and cultural context. He started with a simple but hard question that required me to organize my thoughts and express myself with honest reactions. He would echo my answer and naturally bring us to the next topic. Back and forth, it was like sharing thoughts and chatting with a friend.
