João Rodrigues

PORTUGUESE LITERATURE, PORTUGUESE LANGUAGE & MUSIC TEACHER

João has been teaching for 18 years in different learning institutions. English, Portuguese, Religious Studies and Music and Drama have been the areas of teaching in lower schools, upper secondary schools and at University.

He loves Portuguese (especially Portuguese Literature) and Music (he has been the keyboard player in a band for 16 years). Previously, he organized and managed a school choir and band and led his church choir.

One of his most ambitious aims is to help his students reflect about the world around them, while improving their vocabulary and writing skills.
