Julia is a pleasure to work with
Julia is a pleasure to work with. Definitely don’t hesitate to give her classes a try. I am currently learning Brazilian Portuguese with her help. I also speak Spanish. When I first came to Julia I felt that I was mixing up the languages a bit too much. Though I was already able to speak. I felt lost when it came to using certain tenses and words. I wasn’t very confident while speaking because I didn’t have many opportunities to practice speaking Portuguese. Now a few months later. I am happy to say I feel much more confident speaking Portuguese. We have really honed in on improving my grammar and speaking. Each lesson is tailored to you. You can even suggest a topic for the lesson if you so desire. Julia has wonderful PowerPoints I have enjoyed exploring in class. I have been learning not only the language. But also the history and culture behind the country of Brazil. There are also vocab lists and instructional videos for almost any question you may have. You also are able to message her during the week with any questions. There is homework assigned each week. This has helped me improve drastically. If there is a mistake she will clearly explain why. Not only is Julia an amazing teacher. But she is also a joy to work with. She is so passionate about teaching. I was nervous to try her classes at first. But I am so glad I did. If you do the same you definitely won’t regret it. The classes can also be recorded and transcribed so you can come back to them anytime. Very helpful if you can’t remember what you did in class. For me because Julia speaks multiple languages. Its been easier. I can speak to her in English Spanish or Portuguese. This is especially helpful if I accidentally say a word in Spanish while speaking Portuguese. With Julia’s help it happens much less now. I feel she has helped me hone in to improve my skills. Before my method of learning was more haphazard. She makes the language more applicable to my life. If you are struggling in a language. Professor Julia can definitely help!
