Hi there! My name is Rodrigo and I will be happy to help you achieve your goals, be it to communicate with Brazilian friends, travel, work, get a language certification, develop your child’s Portuguese language, or other reasons.

My lessons:

My goal is to develop your communicative competence in the Portuguese language, whether for professional, academic, or personal use, and to familiarize you with the Brazilian culture. 

My approach is student-centered learning, so we will build class formats that best suit your needs. 

Resources used in our classes: textbooks, videos, songs, role-plays, quizzes, games, podcasts, apps, and much more.

I can help you with grammar, vocabulary, reading, writing, and conversation. We will talk about topics that are of interest to you, as well as articles that we will read together.

I offer materials for all levels and interests, such as general Portuguese, business Portuguese, academic Portuguese, Portuguese for kids and teenagers, idioms, presentation, prep for the Celpe-bras exam, pronunciation, and so forth.

About me:

I am from São Paulo, Brazil, and I am presently living in Santiago, Chile. I am passionate about languages. I speak English and Spanish fluently and currently I am studying Japanese (A2 level). I love discussing a great variety of subjects such as cultures, literature, music, and linguistics. I am also a musician and play a traditional Japanese instrument called shamisen (influenced by São Paulo’s Japanese town).

I got my Bachelor of Arts degree in Portuguese and English in 2018 having now had 6 years of in-person teaching experience and 4 years of online teaching experience.

Hi there! My name is Aline, and I'm thrilled to connect with you. As a language tutor with over seven years of experience, I specialize in teaching Spanish, Portuguese, and English. I hold not one but two teacher's degrees, one in Portuguese/English Language and another in teaching adults, which means I have the expertise to help you learn your desired language.

My teaching journey began seven years ago as a translator for the Spanish embassy in Brazil. One day, the consul approached me and asked if I could teach him Portuguese. From there, I began teaching other diplomats as well. Looking back, I realize that teaching has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. It has allowed me to share my knowledge and cultural experiences with others while also learning from them. I am grateful for the opportunity to have started my career as a teacher in such a unique and fulfilling way.

I also have a large experience teaching English for Portuguese speakers so: Se você fala Português e quer aprender inglês me manda uma mensagem, vai ser um prazer!

In my experience, I have successfully helped students at every level enhance their reading, writing, speaking, and listening abilities. Every student has unique learning needs, so I customize my teaching approach to meet those requirements.

Olá! My name is Carolina and it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Portuguese, and I have been teaching my mother tongue for over 5 years at university level. I like to diversify the materials I use as much as possible to focus on all different aspects of the language, but I tend to prioritize speaking practice. I have taught courses as diverse as Spoken Portuguese, Advanced Writing, Portuguese Culture/Literature, and even Sports Readings in Portuguese. Your language goals will always play a part when planning our lessons, so don't hesitate to tell me what you expect.

If you plan on visiting Portugal as a tourist or have Portuguese speaking friends/relatives you may prefer a conversational approach, but if you're interested in using the language for business, you may be interested in learning how to compose an e-mail in Portuguese (an underestimated art form). No matter what your motivation to learn Portuguese is, I am keen in hearing about it. I'll also try to accomodate your interests as much as possible.

If you are curious about the story of how I became a Portuguese teacher, read ahead:

I studied Modern Languages at the University of Coimbra (look it up; it's one of the oldest universities in Europe!) and Literature at the University of Glasgow (quite a stunner as well). One day, a Chinese friend at the pub asked me whether I'd like to apply to his home university, all the way in China, as a Portuguese lecturer. I said 'no way,' so naturally, I ended up moving there shortly after and living in the beautiful city of Harbin for 3 amazing years. Not only did that experience provide me with adventure, but also a lifelong calling: I have loved teaching ever since. After returning to Portugal, I taught for two years at Beijing Sport University (online). Now I work as a freelance online teacher and divide my time between Portugal and Sweden.

My name is Pamela, I'm from Brazil and I'm ready to help you learn Portuguese with ease. I teach students of all levels and I tailor my lessons to your goals and interests, offering bits of cultural content to help you immerse yourself in the language. I have three years of online teaching experience and formal training on Portuguese as a Second Language (PLE - Português como Língua Estrangeira).

Having learned four foreign languages myself, I can understand your difficulties and offer my own experience on how to overcome them. I have a degree in Communication and have worked for ten years in the print and online media. Therefore I can also help you improve your writing and correct or revise your written production. 

As for my personal tastes, I'm a big fan of literature, music and cinema, an occasional biker and an avid traveller and foodie.

Let's schedule a trial lesson! Hope to see you soon.

I am a devoted language teacher, motivated by my passion for languages and my curiosity about diverse countries and cultures.

Language learning is an immersive journey that requires time and dedication. It not only enhances our understanding of language itself but also provides us with profound insights into varied cultures and worldviews. Consequently, it brings people closer together, enriching both our personal and professional lives. 

I firmly believe that customized lessons are the key to effective learning. That is why I exclusively offer one-to-one lessons for adults, ensuring that we can delve into topics that genuinely captivate your interest.

Throughout our classes, you will receive personalised feedback to optimise your progress. Together, we will employ an interactive platform, allowing us to write in real-time and complete exercises during the lesson. Following each session, you will have the opportunity to download materials containing pertinent corrections, texts, and detailed notes on grammar and pronunciation. Moreover, I will equip you with strategies and resources to facilitate self-study and continuous learning at your own pace.

Prepare yourself for dynamic lessons designed to foster independence and proficiency in language acquisition. We will focus on developing all four fundamental language skills: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Furthermore, I will teach you idiomatic expressions and cultivate cultural awareness that will prove invaluable when travelling or engaging with native speakers.

At the conclusion of each lesson, you will receive a comprehensive report encompassing discussion notes, error corrections, and clear guidance on how to progress and maintain your knowledge. Your lessons will revolve around your unique needs and challenges.

If you aspire to enhance your language abilities and acquire effective study techniques tailored to your individual goals, do not hesitate to book a lesson now. Together, we will establish the foundations for building language skills that truly resonate with you.

Hello, I’m a teacher of Portuguese, English and French. My native language is Brazilian Portuguese and I am from the state of Goiás. I am in my last year of my Bachelor's degree in Languages (French and Francophone studies Major) and I’ve been living in the beautiful city of Bordeaux for a while. I also have a music background. Plus, I love languages and study Spanish, German and Mandarin as a hobby.

I have had a significant amount of teaching experience both during my time as a working professional outside of the academy and as a student with different age groups and levels in Portuguese, English and French. I started by being an English tutor at high school to high school and college students and later on as an English language teacher for beginner to advanced levels and facilitator of conversation classes at a professional school. In the beginning of 2020 I acted as an English teacher and conversation partner for children ages 4-12 (online) and started at another online school as a French as a foreign language (FLE) classes in small groups and at the individual level (levels A2-B2).

Language learning has to be fun, in my opinion. That’s why we will always talk about things that interest and inspire you. If we’re practicing grammar or just talking about something else, I want to make it interesting for us and link the grammatical and formal terms to real-life subjects. Therefore, your emotional filter will be open and as a result your journey will be fun and enriching.

Oi! Hi! Ciao! My name is José. I lived in Brazil most of my life, in the city of Sao Paulo, and now, after a period in London, I'm living in Turin, Italy. I'm eager to help you learn Portuguese, whether it is for travelling, to speak the language of your loved one, for working or just for fun, no matter what is your level.

From day one, my lessons will be tailored to your goals and interests, to make them engaging and fun and to help you achieve fluency fastly.

I always include bits of culture in our interactions and draw parallels between your knowledge and the culture around the language you are learning, to make the experience richer and to make you feel closer to the native speakers. That is essential!

I also have professional experience in several areas, from hospitality to business consulting, which gave me a lot of flexibility with the language and I will use it to help you improve your vocabulary.

Hello, my name is Alice and I'm Brazilian, I was born in the city of Rio de Janeiro. I currently live in Mexico and have dedicated myself in teaching my mother language, Portuguese, to foreigners. I am a Portuguese teacher graduated by a Brazilian University, which makes me able to offer my didactic knowledge in the teaching and learning of the Portuguese language to my students.

My classes are focused on the communicative method, to develop all 4 skills required to become fluent in a language (writing, speaking, listening and reading). I plan my classes dynamically, with scenes from movies/series, music, memes, lots of visual resources, games and also exercises so that my students can have fun, learn easily and not be afraid to speak. I try to create a friendly environment so that my students feel free to ask questions, participate and thus develop their knowledge of the language. I also speak English, Spanish and German, so that I can help my students in case of any doubts that cannot be clarified in Portuguese, but of course I always try to speak in Portuguese during my classes to develop speaking skills from the beginning. I love teaching my mother language and I believe in teaching the real language, the one that the student will really hear from a native speaker and that is why my classes are based on activities, vocabulary and teaching techniques that mix the playful with the traditional methods in balance so that all students achieve excellent knowledge and full practice of the language.
