I am originally from Brazil and have lived in Sweden, France, Switzerland, and now Portugal. Having attended an international school myself, I know how impactful it can be to grow up in a diverse, multicultural environment. These experiences have shaped who I am, and they continue to guide the way I support and connect with students. I believe every child is unique and deserves to feel heard, understood, and valued.

I hold a CELTA certification and I have been teaching English as a Second Language for over five years, in both Portuguese and International curriculum schools.

Working with children gives me hope for the future. I believe the values and skills we nurture in them today are the seeds of a more compassionate and thoughtful world tomorrow.

ABOUT MS MONIQUE DA SILVA

Outside of the classroom, I enjoy making art and studying languages. I speak Portuguese and French and have also studied Spanish and German. I am excited to be part of the team at The British School of Lisbon and to support our students as they grow and thrive.
