Hi there!
I am Lucas, I am Brazilian and I will be be your next Brazilian Portuguese teacher! I believe that the first contact with the student is one of the most important. It is the opportunity to learn about the student's purpose with the language classes, any prior knowledge of the language and all the cultural aspects involved in the learning process.

Hi there!
I am Lucas, I am Brazilian and I will be be your next Brazilian Portuguese teacher! I believe that the first contact with the student is one of the most important. It is the opportunity to learn about the student's purpose with the language classes, any prior knowledge of the language and all the cultural aspects involved in the learning process.
My classes are tailored to the needs of each student:
- Conversation
- Grammar
- Pronunciation
- Brazilian culture (!)
Tell me your purpose so that the class is tailored to your needs. Let's do a test?!
Let me tell a bit more about myself. I'm familiar with communication and international customer support, fluent in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Throughout my career, I have worked in roles that required intercultural awareness and teaching skills, including customer service, administrative support, and project coordination. My experience as a freelance translator has also deepened my understanding of linguistic nuances, particularly in adapting Portuguese for different audiences.
Having worked in international environments, including AFS Interkulturelle Begegnungen e.V. in Germany, I have had direct and frequent contact with native English speakers, particularly British individuals. This exposure has allowed me to refine my approach to teaching Portuguese to English speakers, focusing on clear explanations, cultural insights, and practical language use. My methodology incorporates both formal grammar and everyday expressions, ensuring that learners can confidently communicate in real-life situations.
With a strong foundation in multilingual communication, I am eager to contribute as a Portuguese teacher. My goal is to create an engaging and structured learning experience that facilitates fluency and cultural understanding. I would welcome the opportunity to further discuss my qualifications and teaching approach.
