Effective MultiLingual Tutor – ESL, French, Portuguese, Spanish

Hello and welcome to my page! My name is Edite (pronounced – Edeet). I have a degree in Accounting and I used that knowledge while I worked at Marriott Headquarters for 15 years. My real passion is languages: I speak 4 idioms, one creole and one dialect. I am a native Portuguese speaker and U.S. citizen. I worked for the United Nations for 11 years where I came in contact with many different languages and cultures. I’ve been teaching languages and different subjects for many years now. As a …

Mike C. from Upper Marlboro, MD Edite has been a tremendous blessing to our son. His grades have done a 180 degree turn. Through Edite's caring, patience, and toughness my son is now empowered and not afraid of Spanish. He is now willing to challenge himself to complete assignments and not look for shortcuts. The thing I like most about Edite is that she knows how to communicate with students and she knows how to motivate them to do their best. My son initially was being lazy and not trying, but he is now doing his best and is self-motivated to learn Spanish and to complete his work. If your looking for a tutor who truly cares, gives their all, and is passionate about teaching and knows how to reach students and help them help themselves, I strongly encourage you to consider her. Results speak for themselves.

Steve A. from Ellicott City, MD Edite meets with us (2 adults) for 2.5 hours on Mondays and again for 2.5 hours on Tuesdays. She is teaching us the Portuguese language. Each student learns in a unique way, thus requiring from Edite the patience and tactics to meet the specific needs of each of us. As a tutor, she masters this challenge with grace and dignity, while contemporaneously keeping the sessions enjoyable. We could not have asked for a better human being to teach us. After we learn to speak Portuguese, we might hire her to teach us to understand French. Muito Obrigado Edite! (Thank you very much, Edite!) We love you!

Patricia C. from Washington, DC I've never met a sweet, attentive, inspiring tutor like Edite! I enjoy every session with Edite- you don't only learn the language but she also tells you the culture and the history of countries. She always tries her best to explain and demonstrate the materials. Edite always seeks for common ground with her students and she likes to learn the student's culture and background reciprocally. Edite knows how to teach languages! I've learned better from her than from my professor, NOT kidding! She has good qualities of humanity and care, and she pays respect to her students. Once I was sick and she knew that I'm an international student thousands of miles away from home. She checked on me every day and she even offered food. She's just loving and she's beautiful inside and out!

Sharon S. from Severna Park, MD My son has attention issues and Edite has been very patient with him, and has always been gentle and kind. She has a calm voice and is good about praising his accomplishments. If he needs improving, she discusses it in such a way that encourages him to do better.

Nathan F. from Washington, DC Edite is a patient, professional, and positive professor. She's able to target lessons based on the student's needs, which is incredibly helpful in my case. She has a great ability to boost one's confidence in language skills, which everyone needs. She's also adaptable. When I said I wanted more Portuguese spoken in the sessions, she picked it up immediately. When I asked for homework, she e-mailed me an assignment right away. We reviewed in class the next day, breaking down the translations, sentence structure, and pronunciation. Every now and again we lost focus and chit chatted about Brazil in general - a few cultural things - rather than focus on the lesson at hand. She's fun about it though and those cultural things are important too. I've impressed a few colleagues with my Portuguese and I've only been taking lessons a month, so I'm looking forward to continuing to learn the language with Edite when I come back from my trip to Brazil. All-in-all, I'd recommend Edite. As a student, you should be clear about expectations and desired needs. I laid out those expectations and needs and Edite met them.

Stephanie C. from Washington, DC From the very first day, Edite proved to be a personable and enthusiastic teacher. She tailored a lesson plan to my needs and was very accommodating about arranging meetings. I highly recommend her as a French tutor!

John D. from Bowie, MD I must say that having Edite as a Spanish tutor was an excellent decision on my part. Edite's approach is excellent. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable and great with instruction, but she also has a very personable and humorous approach. From the moment we started our sessions together, there was a great connection and we immediately found a common ground and began building from there. Learning another language has never been easier. She's awesome, and I am glad I made the right decision.

Sarah B. from Washington, DC My daughter has had about 5 lessons with Edite so far and is making a lot of progress. Edite allows my daughter to have creativity in her lessons but always finds a way to make sure she learns new words and phrases. My daughter loves Edite and she has a very comforting presence. I am very satisfied and impressed!

Caroline S. from Washington, DC Not only is Edite one of the most understanding and patient tutors I have ever worked with, she also has an incredible skill set in regards to helping one learn to speak the language as well as think in it. She really helped to guide me through speaking the language and always was ready to help me and exercise patience when I was not understanding something fully. I would recommend Edite to anyone, she is an incredible tutor, very qualified, and a complete sweetheart as well!

Ron R. from Washington, DC I have been working with Edite T. now for some time and have found her to be an extremely good tutor in French. She is extremely knowledgeable and has helped me very much in my goal of learning as much French as possible in as short a period of time as possible. Edite is very engaging as a tutor as well as helping me to stay focused on whatever particular topic as possible might be at hand. Edite also has the ability to also always be up beat during a lesson which helps the student immensely as it results in a very possible role model for the student. I would highly recommend Edite as excellent for any student in search of a tutor for a foreign language.

Tynyika M. from Upper Marlboro, MD Mrs. Edite was very polite. In requesting a tutor for both Math (Algebra2/Trig) and Spanish, it was disturbing that Edite showed up at the designated location with her husband to teach the Math tutoring session. Edite stated her husband was an expert in math and it that was not communicated to me that she herself would not be tutoring my daughter in math. This is not allowed by the WyzAnt Tutor company and is against their policy. The tutoring sessions for math and Spanish were set up for two different days and Edite declined in the continuation of tutoring my daughter in Spanish, since I declined to continue with the math sessions. Edite stated that she had accepted to tutor Spanish because it was a package with Math, and that is fine, but it would be appreciated if she was honest in her profile.

Marie K. from Alexandria, VA Edite T. is an excellent tutor. Very experienced. Fluent in multiple languages. She was able to take the knowledge base I have with already knowing French and Spanish and incorporate that into teaching me Portuguese. I look forward to having her help me learn Portuguese!

Deidre T. from Bowie, MD Madame Edite est un tuteur tr?s bonne! She helped me fully understand the foundations of French and does it in a way that helps ME understand. She works with your learning style and is very good at working with your schedule. I strongly recommend her to anyone struggling with the comprehensions or pronunciation of the French language.

Glad I found WyzAnt, thrilled I found a great French tutor and my only regret that I did not find this service earlier.
