Learning a language face-to-face with a tutor can be a fantastic experience. But if you're unable to find an affordable private Portuguese tutor in Nashville, you may want to consider learning online. To learn with a Portuguese tutor near you in Nashville, you'll have to either travel to the tutor's home, or pay more to cover their travel time; the average cost of receiving private Portuguese lessons in Nashville is over $20 per hour. Not only does learning online save travel costs, but you gain access to the best tutors from all over the world.
Whilst students sometimes prefer learning in person, the vast majority of students report being pleasantly surprised by the experience of learning with a tutor online. On LanguaTalk, lessons are taught 1-on-1 so that you receive your tutor’s full attention and can progress quickly. Lessons are taught via video call, allowing you to communicate with your tutor and share learning materials. You'll feel like you're in the same room with your tutor. Book a trial session and see if you agree!

Hello there! My name is Vitória. Nice to meet you!
I have been a Brazilian Portuguese tutor for about two years 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!

Who am I?
I’m Valéria — a true language enthusiast!
I love connecting with people from different cultures and traveling whenever I get the chance. I’m Brazilian, but at the moment I’m living in Portugal. The USA also has a special place in my heart — I even spent a year there as an Au Pair! During that time, I took care of five amazing kids, shared a bit of Brazilian culture with them, and even taught them some Portuguese. They taught me a lot too — it was such a fun and enriching experience!
I’m a certified Portuguese and English teacher, with a degree in Languages (Portuguese & English) and a License in Pedagogy.
Before focusing on teaching Portuguese to foreigners, I worked as an English tutor at language schools and as a translator for different companies. I had been translating everything from technical manuals to advertisement campaigns and even medical instructions!
In my classes, I use the communicative approach, which means that we’ll practice using real-life situations so you can develop your own strategies and build confidence in speaking naturally.
For me, true fluency isn’t about perfection — it’s about excellence. And excellence, in language learning, happens when you can understand others and make yourself understood. Once you realize that, communicating becomes fearless — and fun!
So, what do you think? Ready to join me on this exciting journey?

Tutors on LanguaTalk sometimes provide lessons locally, but most only provide online lessons as it is more convenient and allows them to work from home. In addition, most tutors are not teaching Portuguese in Nashville because they're living elsewhere in the world. If you decide to book with a tutor, you should assume that they can only teach you online.
Whether you live in the city centre or the suburbs of Nashville, there are many options for learning Portuguese. You could use an app or a software program if you're looking to pick up basic vocabulary and learn some grammar rules. Alternatively, you could attend group lessons with Portuguese tutors in Nashville if you're keen for a social experience. Or, you could take 1-on-1 lessons with a private tutor. This isn't the cheapest way to learn a language but it's possibly the most effective, assuming you have a good tutor. Learning online rather than face-to-face may make private tutors a more affordable option. Check the tutor profiles above to see how much it's likely to cost. Prices vary a lot depending on the tutor, but will usually be cheaper than learning with a Portuguese tutor in Nashville, face-to-face.
Our research suggests that the average cost for private Portuguese lessons in Nashville is somewhere between $25-$35 per hour. As online tutors do not need to travel to you and they often live in countries with a lower cost of living, the hourly cost tends to be significantly lower.
If you're really not keen on learning with a teacher via video call, LanguaTalk isn't going to be the right choice for you. You can instead search for a tutor on a local service listing website, or put up an advert in your local area. We do encourage you to give it a try learning online though - you've got nothing to lose as you can book a free trial session. Most people find the experience is as good as learning face-to-face, but with the benefit of having access to better tutors at a lower cost.
Sometimes students tell us that they're not sure about learning Portuguese online because they think it’ll be completely different to learning face-to-face. But usually when they try it, they find that the experience is almost the same and they often build a solid relationship with their tutor.
Once you start a video call with your chosen tutor, you’ll be able to communicate with them as if you were in the same room. The tutor will typically also share learning resources with you (newspaper articles, YouTube, etc.) and you’ll be able to collaborate in real-time using a tool like Google Docs or Dropbox Paper.
On LanguaTalk, you can find exceptional tutors for 1-on-1 Portuguese lessons tailored to your goals and learning preferences. Here’s how to try it for yourself:
1 - Find your ideal tutor by browsing videos, reviews, pricing and availability.
2 - Book a trial. Many tutors offer a 30-minute trial for free; others charge a discounted price.
3 - Take personalised lessons with your new tutor via video call. Or try someone else.
No card is required to book a free trial session. Please only book if you're considering taking lessons. Pricing varies by tutor and you can use the filter to find someone who fits your budget. You can pay one lesson at a time, or buy in bulk for a discount (open a tutor's profile to see their pricing options).

New to LanguaTalk? We'll give you a credit for a free trial session. Many, but not all, tutors offer these for free. If they do not, the price will be just 30 percent of their full lesson price, so you can still try a session at minimal cost.
Trial sessions last 30 minutes. They allow you to assess whether the tutor is a good fit for you, and get a feel for learning online. The tutor will assess your level and aim to understand your needs and interests so that they can customise any lessons you decide to take. You'll be encouraged to speak in Portuguese as much as possible, but of course you can speak in English too!
If, after your trial session, you don't feel that the tutor is quite right for you, you can book a trial with another tutor for just 30 percent of their full lesson price.
The vast majority of students take 55-minute lessons. But some tutors also provide the option of 30-minute lessons. If they do, you’ll see this noted on their profile (below their pricing and above the ‘Buy Lessons’ button).
55-minute lessons are recommended for most students. In general, we only suggest considering 30-minute lessons if they’re for your child, or you have an intermediate level and only want conversation practice.
The beauty of taking lessons online is that you can learn anytime, anywhere. When you choose a tutor, just check their calendar to make sure that they have available times that fit your schedule. Some tutors have limited availability as they already have a lot of students.
Lessons are taught 1-on-1 so that you receive your tutor’s full attention and can make fast progress. Communicating via video call, you’ll be able to talk to your tutor and share learning materials as if you were in the same room.
The tutors vary in terms of their teaching methods, resources, experiences, and personalities. So we suggest you look at several profiles to choose the best tutor for you. Whichever Portuguese tutor you pick, they'll aim to tailor the lessons to your individual needs.
