Maria F.

🇧🇷✨ OLÁ! I'M MARIA, YOUR FUTURE PORTUGUESE TEACHER! 👏🏼 Born and raised in Brazil and now living in the U.S. for the past six years, I’m passionate about helping people fall in love with Portuguese — not just the words, but the culture, rhythm, and soul behind it. 🌎💬 As someone who also works in the entertainment industry, I’ve always had a deep connection with the Portuguese language — writing scripts, performing, and bringing stories to life through it. 🎭 I studied English throughout high school in Brazil through an Oxford-certified program, earning a fluency certificate after completing the three-year course. Having learned English that way and lived abroad since, I understand firsthand what it takes to truly master a new language through immersion and connection. In my lessons, you’ll learn real Portuguese — the kind people actually speak every day, from conversations with friends to Brazilian music, films, and culture. My classes are personalized to fit you — your goals, your pace, and your interests — so learning feels natural, fun, and exciting. 🎶📚 Whether you’re starting from scratch or refining your fluency, I’ll help you not only speak Portuguese confidently but feel connected to it. Ready to start? Let’s make learning this beautiful language your next great adventure! 🚀🇧🇷

I’m fluent in both Portuguese and English, having completed a three-year English program in Brazil through an Oxford-certified curriculum and earning a FLUENCY CERTIFICATE upon graduation, as I previously mentioned. 📚🧠 I later achieved a 99% SCORE ON THE TOEFL EXAM, reflecting my advanced proficiency and understanding of language structure. My classes focus on immersion and conversation, helping students speak naturally, build confidence, and connect with Brazilian culture through real-life communication. 🌎✨ Each lesson is CENTERED AROUND THE STUDENT — their goals, needs, and interests — making learning both fun and effective. 🎯💬
