Portuguese classes in Tokyo: Try a class for free
Finding Portuguese classes in Tokyo that are both effective and affordable can be tricky. Classes are typically in groups, meaning you have limited opportunities to speak. On top of this, you’ll often find certain students dominate the conversation, or ask the teacher endless questions!
LanguaTalk offers a more convenient and effective alternative: 1-on-1 online Portuguese classes with experienced native tutors. You won’t find these tutors available for face-to-face Portuguese lessons in Tokyo. LanguaTalk finds the best tutors from around the world. They offer conversational Portuguese classes at cheaper rates because they don’t have to travel to you and they often live in countries with a lower cost of living.
Probably you’re thinking: but are online classes really as effective as face-to-face? You can book a no obligation 30-minute trial session (for free with most tutors) and see for yourself. Classes take place via video call, allowing you to communicate with your tutor and share learning materials, as if you were in the same room. And you can book classes for whenever it suits you.
Below, you can filter to tutors who have availability that fits with your Tokyo time zone. Then watch videos, check reviews, and book a trial session.
If you have questions, you can click the 'Help' button in the bottom right. There, you’ll find answers to every question imaginable, and the option of contacting our support team.

Vitória R
Brazilian Portuguese Tutor with Experience
Hello there! My name is Vitória. Nice to meet you!
I have been a Brazilian Portuguese tutor for about a year now. I LOVE my job, teaching is truly one of my passions. Getting to meet new people, from different cultures, and talking about my language, sharing my culture, is truly a privilege. I also enjoy learning languages and studying linguistics in my spare time. Besides that, I also like to listen to music and read books. How about you?
The methodology that I have chosen is to use the book Muito Prazer, which is fun and easy to understand. I also enjoy teaching speaking and listening lessons by talking about Brazilian culture and asking questions about the studen'ts own culture. If necessary, I can also make extra materials. If you wish to learn something specific, I am happy to assist!
Do you have people in your life that speak Portuguese and you wish to speak with them in their language? Do you intend to visit or even move to Brazil? Or do you simply enjoy learning new languages? Whichever is your case, I am here for you!

I'm Duarte, a Portuguese tutor from Lisbon!
Hello everybody! My name is Duarte and I was born and brought up in Lisbon, Portugal. I communicate in Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, and a smidgen of German and Italian. After departing Lisbon in 2014, I resided in Berlin, Germany for 6 years, where I turned into a Portuguese instructor. I relocated to Madrid, Spain in March 2020.
I adore instructing Portuguese to all varieties of proficiency levels and group sizes, and I believe acquiring any language enhances one's life significantly! I've always relished mastering other languages, and it's a delightful experience for me to impart knowledge of my own.
Since commencing teaching, I've encountered learners from all corners of the globe, with diverse levels, backgrounds, aptitudes, and shortcomings - from complete novices who embarked from ground zero (and one year later were engaging in discussions with me on a diverse array of subjects) to exceedingly advanced learners who sought assistance in exam preparation.
My approach concentrates on verbal communication and utilizing the language - the conversational topics can be profoundly language-focused (you might say "textbook" focused - daily routines, your weekends, traveling, etc.) and intertwined with Portuguese culture. Grammar, reading, writing, and vocabulary are immensely crucial, but my aim and primary focus are for the learner to converse as much as feasible, within a secure, enjoyable, and engaging setting, while assimilating and refining the other facets of the language.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does participating in a Portuguese class via video call differ from attending a Portuguese class in person in Tokyo?
Many students initially have reservations about participating in online Portuguese classes, thinking the experience will be vastly different from in-person classes. However, they often discover that online classes can be just as engaging and effective. In an online Portuguese class, you’ll interact with your teacher and classmates as if you were all in the same room. The teacher may share resources (like articles or videos) and will collaborate with you in real-time using tools like Google Docs or Dropbox Paper, ensuring an interactive learning environment. The biggest benefit is convenience: there is no need to travel, and you can book lessons for when it suits you.
Do any of the teachers on LanguaTalk also offer in-person conversational Portuguese classes in Tokyo?
While some teachers on LanguaTalk may offer in-person conversational classes in their local area, the majority specialize in online teaching. This approach is more convenient for them, allowing flexibility and the comfort of working from home. Most teachers are not based in Tokyo and are spread across the globe, so if you're looking for a class with LanguaTalk, you should anticipate an online learning experience.
What's the best way to find conversational Portuguese classes near me in Tokyo?
If you prefer in-person learning over online classes, LanguaTalk might not be the best fit for your needs. For local classes, you can search through community boards or local service listing websites. However, we encourage you to explore the convenience and effectiveness of online classes. You can start with a free trial session to experience the benefits first-hand, such as access to a broader range of experienced teachers and potentially lower costs.
Are Portuguese lessons in Tokyo more expensive than learning online?
Whilst not always the case, Portuguese classes in Tokyo are typically more expensive than online learning options. This is due to the costs associated with using a classroom, as well as travel time and expenses for teachers. Online classes, on the other hand, eliminate these overheads. Additionally, online instructors often live in countries with lower living costs, which can further reduce the price of online classes.
The advantage of taking lessons online is that you can learn at any time and from any location. When you select a tutor, check their calendar to ensure that they have available slots that fit your schedule. Some tutor may have limited availability due to high demand from other students.

If, after your trial lesson, you don't feel that the tutor is right for you, you can schedule a trial lesson with another tutor for 30 percent of their full lesson price.
