Ana Carla Araújo Filipe

I am an experienced teacher with a strong background in teaching Portuguese as a Non-
Native Language (PLNM) and English to students from diverse cultural and linguistic
backgrounds. I have worked with beginner learners (A1 level), including students with no
prior knowledge of Portuguese, in multicultural learning environments.
My teaching approach is student-centred and focused on communication, inclusion, and
confidence-building. I adapt my lessons to individual learning needs and have experience
supporting students with attention and learning difficulties.
In my current role, I also coordinate study centre activities, including academic planning,
student progress monitoring, and the development of study skills and autonomy. This has
strengthened my organisational and student support skills.
