I'm a Spanish teacher with over 20 years of experience in education, and my goal has always been clear: to help students learn the language in a practical, natural, and meaningful way.

My teaching approach is centered around real-life situations, with a strong focus on speaking and oral expression. I use a modern, engaging, and student-friendly method that encourages communication from day one.

I truly believe that learning a language is not just about memorizing rules—it's about living it, using it, and enjoying the journey.

I’m passionate about guiding each student along their path and providing them with the tools they need to feel confident using Spanish in real contexts.

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 :)

Welcome to a Japanese class where language, culture, and real‐life experience come together.
My lessons are designed for anyone who wants to learn Japanese in a warm, friendly, and practical way—whether you’re a complete beginner, a traveler preparing for Japan, or someone who simply loves Japanese culture.

I have taught English for five years in an elementary school and have experience teaching Japanese to international students. I also work as a cultural guide, introducing visitors to kimono, temples, food culture, and everyday customs. Because of this, my lessons go beyond textbooks: you’ll learn expressions you can actually use in real situations.

I can support Spanish‐speaking learners as well, as I speak Spanish at a B1 level and can explain grammar and expressions clearly when needed.

If you want to travel confidently, make Japanese friends, enjoy conversations, or prepare for job interviews, I will guide you step by step at your own pace.
Let’s explore the language—and the heart—of Japan together.

Do you want to stop feeling like a tourist and start experiencing Italy like a true local?
Italian is not just grammar; it’s an art form, a flavor, a way of gesturing, and a way of
smiling.
In my classes, we won’t just stick to textbooks. We’ll learn how to order in a top-tier
restaurant, discuss art over a virtual espresso, and understand the nuances of our
millennial culture. Whether you are fascinated by the Opera, Milanese design, or
Sicilian culinary traditions, I will customize your journey to help you speak with
confidence from day one.
My method combines linguistic precision with total cultural immersion: you will learn
the "language of beauty" while having fun.

This class aims to make students fluent communicators in Portuguese. They will be able to face everyday life, whether shopping or asking for directions on the street. My students will know perfectly how to introduce themselves, how to talk about their interests, and how to read an advertisement. In addition to speaking, there will be writing exercises focused on everyday life. I will be available for specific needs. I love Portugal very much and would like to share this passion by captivating students in the proper use of the Portuguese language.
