With beginners, we go through the basics clearly and step by step. Grammar is necessary, of course, but always taught in a simple, interactive way.You’ll speak from the very first class. We use reading, role plays, conversation, and lots of examples to help you build confidence little by little. Even if you’re starting from zero, you’ll leave the first lesson already speaking something in Portuguese.

My classes are fully focused on helping you speak naturally and confidently in real situations. We go beyond textbook Portuguese, working with useful vocabulary, informal expressions, and the rhythm of real conversation.Whether you’re preparing for a trip, living abroad, or talking to Brazilian friends or family, we’ll practice through role plays, dialogue, short texts, and lots of real-life examples. No scripts. Just real talk, at your pace.

I’ve worked with students preparing for interviews, exams, job relocation, and life in Brazil with tight deadlines. In intensive classes, we move faster, but still with clarity and structure.I combine grammar, vocabulary and conversation in a way that’s practical and focused on your specific goals. Each class comes with review material, real-life practice, and clear next steps. We keep it intense, but human.

With a background of nearly 10 years in Finance, I feel comfortable teaching formal Portuguese for professional contexts, including business meetings, presentations, interviews, and emails.We can work on specific vocabulary for your field, improve your writing and speaking skills, and practice real situations like negotiations, networking or job interviews. I always adapt to your goals and help you sound clear, confident, and professional.

I teach Brazilian Portuguese with a focus on how people really speak in daily life, not just what’s in textbooks. We explore pronunciation, cultural context, and expressions that are actually used in Brazil.You’ll learn to understand native speakers and speak in a natural, relaxed way: with the rhythm, vocabulary, and nuance of Brazilian Portuguese.

We’ll practice how to use adjectives naturally in conversation, including gender and number agreement, word order, and common patterns.I bring lots of real-life examples, role plays and exercises so you can not only recognize adjectives, but use them correctly when speaking and writing.
