About Me

Hello, my name is Suse , I'm 29 years old, I'm Portuguese and I live in Grenoble, France.

I am fluent in English, I have extensive knowledge of Chinese-Mandarin and I am learning French.

One of my biggest dreams from a very early age is to travel and see the world, a dream that I have been realizing step by step.

These trips have also served to endow me with multicultural awareness and to create respect for people and cultures geographically and culturally distant from mine.

And this is how I present myself to you: a person prepared for challenges, a lover of languages and cultures who wants to convey the beauty of them.

I love to read and share this passion with others!

After finishing my degree in Portuguese-Chinese Translation and Interpretation, I became a teacher of Portuguese as a Foreign Language. I taught Portuguese at a company based in Lisbon, specialized in teaching Portuguese to students of Chinese nationality.

For the past three years, I have been a teacher at the Chengdu Institute of Sichuan International Studies University (四川外国语大学成都学院), China. It was during this time I discovered my passion for teaching. I taught several classes as speaking, history, extensive reading, pronunciation, and so on, which prepared me for any challenge you might propose to me.

After return to Europe, I started to give online classes.

Throughout my experience as a teacher, I understood that learning a language can't be forced. Language learning is an individual process and should take place as naturally as possible for those who learn it.

Classes will be taught according to your level and prepared exclusively to meet your expectations and goals, in a relaxed and conducive environment for communication.

I'm available to teach not only Portuguese language classes but also historý, culture and other subjects you may have interest in.

The main goal is that the student has fun in each class.

Book a lesson with me to learn a language and experience a culture! I'm waiting for you!

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.

You will learn with a teacher holding degrees in international relations and pedagogy, and admitted to a Master's program in French literature at Sorbonne University, Paris.

My lessons are dynamic and draw on original teaching resources, including e-books and lessons that I have designed myself.
