Do you live in the Netherlands and need to learn English? I'm Brazilian and it would be a pleasure to help you in this phase of adaptation to the new country. Let's take the opportunity to study culture, exchange ideas about places to visit, and how to adapt better. I have been an English teacher since 1995 at a large university in southern Brazil, and one of my subjects is intercultural communication. In addition to learning the language, we will talk about the challenges of immigrants in new countries.

Eu sou Teacher Teodora, uma apaixonada pelo inglês que transformou essa paixão em uma carreira dinâmica, criando a escola de inglês online, a Star English Brasil! My approach as a Portuguese tutor is student-centered, with highly interactive lessons that prioritize practical, motivating learning to build your confidence from day one. As a bilingual native Brazilian married to an American, I unlock the full spectrum of Brazilian Portuguese, from street-smart slang like "beleza!" (awesome!) and casual lingo such as "vamos nessa" (let's go) for vibrant beachside banter, to polished professional vocabulary for the business world—like "relatório financeiro" (financial report), "estratégia de mercado" (market strategy), or sealing deals with "acordo mútuo" (mutual agreement). I use techniques like real-life dialogues, from São Paulo boardrooms to Rio beaches, and collaborative exercises to weave grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation across this dynamic range. What sets my lessons apart is their total flexibility for all levels—from beginners nailing informal greetings with a tropical twist to advanced pros prepping for executive pitches—infused with my bilingual insights that bridge American directness and Brazilian nuance for seamless mastery. Why study with me? I empower you to navigate everything from friendly small talk to high-stakes negotiations, tracking progress and fueling motivation through dynamic interactions. Your journey to versatile, authentic Brazilian Portuguese starts here!

My name is Nicolas, and I am a Brazilian Portuguese teacher with eight years of teaching experience. I have been speaking Portuguese for about ten years now. I learned the language while living in Brazil for several long periods, both for study and work. I am currently living there again.

Having also gone through the process of learning to speak this language, I am well aware of the different stages my students go through. This helps a lot.

My lessons are tailor-made to achieve personal goals and are adapted to the specific needs of each student.

Practice is prioritized throughout the learning process in order to gain autonomy as quickly as possible. Grammar is also covered, depending on the student's level.

This course is aimed at:
- Beginners (basics, conversation, travel);
- Intermediate/advanced learners (improvement, exam preparation);
- Professionals (business Portuguese, interview preparation).

Currently based in Brazil, I am teaching my classes online. I will be back in Geneva in mid-December for in-person classes.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.

Looking forward to hearing from you :)

You'll be able to learn from a teacher who studied International Relations, Pedagogy, and who was accepted to a master's degree in French Literature at Sorbonne University, Paris. I have been teaching English for over 10 years and French for over 5 years. I have a DALF certificate in French and in English. My classes are dynamic and contain original e-books/lessons developed by me. Teaching is my passion and I hope you find in my classes what you need to become fluent in another language.
