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!

Estou em constante aprimoramento. Meu entendimento está melhorando e até consigo me expressar, em certa medida, em português. Obrigado, Catarina!

Catarina's lessons are always customized to my needs! After I had to take a longer break from lessons for personal reasons, she picked me up right where we stopped last time, helped me remember forgotten vocabulary and patiently explained old and new grammar rules. It's great to be back!

Catarina is an excellent language teacher. Our lessons have a continuity that I have not experienced before with other teachers. She references events and issues we discussed in previous lessons and I find this an excellent way to reinforce grammar and vocabulary. Her explanations are practical rather than extremely theoretical and easily understandable. She always seeks to clarify any doubts before the end of the session. She sends notes and an audio file by email, usually within minutes of the end of the session. She is always punctual. She has never been late to a session. My Portuguese has improved at all levels (speaking, reading, listening and writing) since I started lessons with Catarina (just over 1 year ago).
