About Me

My photo
After living in Portugal for 15 years and teaching English in various capacities there, including at the University of Aveiro, I moved back to the United States in 2019. Returning for our church was the best decision we have ever made and God has been so good to us. Reading the Bible everyday and trying to keep the commandments of Jesus are my priorities, along with loving my family and all the people God has put into my life. Helping people is something I enjoy doing, and meeting the individual needs of students who want to learn English is important to me.

Student Testimonies

At the time I needed a translator/editor to elaborate an application for a PhD program, I found Rebecca to be extremely helpful, excelling in professionalism.  As a result, my application was approved and today I am attending one of the most reputed international PhD programs.  Thank you Rebecca!  -Luis Fernandes

" I am studying with Rebecca since last year and I have to say that I am very satisfied with the lessons.
At the beginning I was with a little fear with lessons via Skype video call because it was my first experience, but now I think I have made a good decision.
I am feeling more and more comfortable with English language. I think that I have improved my English skills on conversion, listening, reading and writing. 
Finally, I am conscious that she is always concerned with my knowledge's improvement and she seeks exercises that can catch my attention and our readings and conversion’s activities are very current." -Sofia
