These are Felipe and Alex, they are computer programmers.Our class is on Tuesday and Thursday at noon, after class they have 30 min for lunch. they studied together for a few months, and then Felipe left to work in another company. Alex is the one wearing glasses , he is very smart and has an advanced English, right now he is studying with another student, Rafael who is also a computer programmer. Great news, I will have this group over next Friday night for a pizza and a game night in English. Matt will help me with that. I will have more students coming. I will take more pictures to show you later! :)
This is one of my study groups, their names are Rita, Graziela, Gustavo and Éder (on the computer). I go to where they work, our class is on Mondays and Wednesdays at 12:30 , they have just 30 min for lunch before class. It is a good group, the English is basic, and they are getting better everyday. It is a computer software company, they are systems analysts, so they need English to have better opportunities in the job market. I like my work because I see them growing proffessionaly, and I know that I was part of this growth. Matt also visits this group once in a while to check their English and talk about our mission in Brazil.
And this is Fábio. He is 26 years old, from São Paulo. He was transferred to Porto Alegre to work as a System analyst. But it is not his dream. He really wants to be a tour guide. We have fun studying English, he is very forgetful and never on time, however he has changed lately; once I got home just in time to teach him, and he was already in my living room waiting for me , he had arrived half an hour earlier for the class, and when I get home, he was playing chess with Matt, and it was difficult to take him out of the game. I believe a seed was planted in that moment, maybe it is the beginning of a friendship!
