What My Lessons Are Like

As a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker from Rio de Janeiro, I focus on creating engaging and immersive lessons tailored to each student's needs and goals. My teaching style is dynamic, practical, and student-centered, designed to help you build confidence in speaking, listening, reading, and writing.

Lesson Format:
Interactive Sessions: Each lesson involves a mix of conversation practice, grammar instruction, and cultural insights. I encourage students to actively participate, ensuring they are comfortable using Portuguese in real-life situations.
Tailored Content: Whether you're a beginner or looking to improve your fluency, I personalize lessons based on your level and learning goals. I use real-world materials like articles, music, and videos to make the learning experience more relevant and enjoyable.
Balanced Approach: We’ll work on all four language skills—speaking, listening, reading, and writing—but place special emphasis on speaking and listening to help you become a confident communicator.
Dynamics:
Cultural Context: I integrate Brazilian culture into the lessons, so you can learn about customs, traditions, and daily life while improving your language skills.
Flexible & Fun: I ensure that lessons are both educational and enjoyable, allowing you to feel comfortable making mistakes and learning at your own pace.
Progress Tracking: I track your progress regularly, adjusting the lesson content to suit your evolving abilities and ensuring consistent improvement.
My Experience:
I have experience teaching both beginners and advanced learners, in one-on-one and group settings, in Brazil and London. My background in management has sharpened my communication and organizational skills, which I apply to structure engaging, effective lessons.
If you're looking to learn Brazilian Portuguese in an interactive, culturally immersive, and fun way, I’d love to work with you!
