Native European Portuguese speaker helps you learn and improve the language
Hi, I'm Catarina and I am a native Portuguese speaker who loves to teach and learn. I like to adapt the lessons to my students and have been teaching all levels, from beginner to advanced. I have a Pedagogical Skills Certificate which allows me to give training here in Portugal and have a passion for sharing some knowledge of my language and also learning from people with different nationalities and backgrounds.
My education is in Science and Culinary and I love both these fields. I love to read and learn about anything that I find interesting. Hope to see you soon!

I look forward to my sessions. At the end of each lesson, I always leave with a clear understanding of a new word or phrase.

Catarina is an excellent tutor. She is patient, encouraging, and incredibly effective — every session is engaging and I always leave feeling like the time and expense were well worth it.

Caterina makes learning rewarding, even though learning European Portuguese é muito difícil para mim. She is so patient with me, even though I make mistakes often and ask many questions, sometimes the same question over and over. Catarina has a natural talent for explaining grammar, verbs and their usage in a simple and clear way, she is supportive and encouraging. I highly recommend Caterina to anyone searching for a attentive, knowledgeable and a motivating teacher.

I enjoy working with Catarina as my instructor. She stays focused on the lesson and challenges me when I need it. I like they way she relates everyday conversations to Portuguese and corrects me when I need it so I can improve.
