Meet Your Guide
With more than 35 years of experience in education, I have dedicated my career to developing teaching practices that positively impact the lives of children, teenagers, and families. My journey includes working as a teacher, coordinator, supervisor, and educational counselor, both in Brazil and abroad.
I began in the classroom, creating inclusive and stimulating learning environments, and later expanded my role to leading educational teams and implementing high-quality programs.
My international experience in the United States and the United Kingdom gave me a broader, multicultural perspective, allowing me to support families in different contexts.
I hold a degree in Technological Education, with strong training in innovative teaching methods and the use of educational technologies.

What I’ve Learned to Teach
Throughout my career, I have learned that every child — and every family — is unique.
There is no universal manual for parenting, but there are personalized strategies that respect individual needs and strengthen family bonds.
I gained solid experience working with children with special needs, particularly through the PECS method (Picture Exchange Communication System), which helps non-verbal children develop effective communication.
This work taught me the value of patience, adaptation, and active listening.
I am also trained in child sexual abuse prevention, which deepened my commitment to creating safe and respectful environments for children and families.
Today, my practice is inspired by authors like Gary Chapman, emphasizing the importance of strong emotional connections between parents and children. These insights shape the guidance I provide, always with clarity, care, and a step-by-step approach.
