Carla
Languages: French & Portuguese
Carla is a dedicated language educator, lifelong learner, and avid traveler who believes that learning a new language is an invitation to discover different cultures and new perspectives.
Originally from Brazil, Carla spent more than 20 years living in Canada before recently making Indianapolis her home. Her experiences across Brazil, Canada, France, Italy, and now Indiana have enriched both her personal journey and her approach to teaching, allowing her to bring authentic cultural insights into every lesson.
Carla teaches Portuguese and French with enthusiasm, encouraging students to build confidence while exploring the traditions, customs, and stories behind each language. She believes that language learning extends far beyond grammar and vocabulary, it's about creating meaningful connections with people and cultures around the world.
Outside the classroom, Carla enjoys planning her next adventure, visiting museums, sharing conversations over coffee, exploring wines from different regions, and discovering destinations where language, culture, cuisine, and art come together.
For Carla, every language opens the door to a new world, and every student begins an exciting journey of discovery.
