"Oiee! 👋 I’m a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker with over 15 years of teaching experience, and I truly enjoy helping students feel confident using Portuguese in real life.

Throughout my experience, I’ve learned that students make the most progress when lessons are engaging, clear, and adapted to how they learn best. That’s why my teaching approach focuses on making Portuguese practical, enjoyable, and relevant. I like to introduce topics in a natural and approachable way, explain concepts clearly, and then give students plenty of opportunities to practice and apply what they’ve learned.

I was trained by two well-respected language schools in Brazil, CCAA and Red Balloon, which helped shape my structured yet flexible teaching style. If you want to speak more fluently, improve pronunciation, and sound more natural in Brazilian Portuguese, we’ll work with real-life topics, practical expressions, and guided conversation that builds confidence every session.

My lessons are conversation-focused, with speaking as the main priority. While we naturally improve listening, vocabulary, and grammar along the way, our main goal is to help you communicate comfortably and confidently in real situations. Each lesson is adapted to your goals, level, and pace, so you can progress naturally and without pressure.

I work with students learning Portuguese for travel, work, family connections, or personal interest, and I enjoy helping each student unlock new opportunities through language. I welcome feedback, questions, and goal-setting so we can make the most of our time together.

I’m easy to reach, responsive, and happy to adjust scheduling when possible. If you’re interested, feel free to reach out and tell me a little about your goals and previous experience with Portuguese.

I look forward to meeting you and helping you on your Portuguese learning journey. Vamos começar?" less...
