About Maria João

I usually follow existing books, and syllabus (Cambridge curricula) when I teach international programs, adding knowledge that seems relevant and necessary. For Portuguese programs it is basically the same, using Portuguese curricula. Online I use a lot of screen sharing, to show procedures in data processing, online research, and videos of things that would normally be done in the laboratory or in the field. In person, I normally use the computer room, to do the same things as when sharing a screen, and try as much as possible to do field and laboratory classes. I privilege as much as possible, the autonomous research done by the students, online, in libraries, or in the field, and the projects that compel them to organize their own work and to find the best solutions for each practical problem they encounter.

I have a degree in geology and a master in environmental management. I started a doctorate in geology, which I have not yet finished, focusing on mapping indicators of sedimentology and organic geochemistry, of lagoon systems, during the Holocene period (last around 6-7000 years). The reasons for the interruption are essentially the difficulty of combining financial availability and the time needed to achieve it. I taught in official Portuguese education for about 10 years, after which I dedicated myself to scientific research for about 10 years. I was forced to leave the investigation due to the financial and work instability that exists for researchers in Portugal. I found in international education and, in particular, in the school where I currently teach, conditions that pleased me, in relation to colleagues and students, so I decided to continue, but unfortunately the values ​​earned are not the best. I started teaching online about a year ago and, due to the social isolation needed to fight the Covid 19 pandemic, these became the rule, new tools were added to the ones I already had, and I noticed that in certain situations , students react even better than in class and end up working better and learning more. In addition to science and education, I exercise regularly, mainly dance and canoeing, and I volunteer at environmental and animal associations, and senior universities.

Details

The price will naturally vary depending on the academic year to which the classes relate, with IGCSE, (or the 9th and 10th years in Portuguese curricula) being 15 Euros per hour, and AS and A levels (or 11th and 12th years in Portuguese) being 20 and 25 euros per hour, respectively). Group classes will have different values (lower), and face-to-face classes with my displacement will have a different value, depending on the distance. Field classes will be taxed daily and not hourly, with different values / h, which will include the necessary travel.
