Learn Dutch with a Linguist Trained at Utrecht University — Conversation,
From 41 C$ /h
My Dutch classes are designed for students who want to communicate confidently and understand how the language works in real-life situations.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics from UNICAMP and academic training at Utrecht University in the Netherlands, I combine practical communication with clear explanations of pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and sentence structure.
For beginners, lessons focus on building a strong foundation in essential vocabulary, pronunciation, basic grammar, everyday expressions, and simple conversations. Students gradually learn how to introduce themselves, talk about their daily lives, describe people and places, ask questions, and interact naturally in common situations.
For intermediate and advanced students, lessons can focus more intensively on conversation, listening comprehension, vocabulary expansion, grammatical accuracy, pronunciation, and greater fluency in spontaneous communication.
I also pay particular attention to aspects of Dutch that can be difficult for learners, such as word order, separable verbs, articles, prepositions, pronouns, pronunciation, and the distinction between formal and informal language.
Lessons are personalized according to each student’s goals, whether they are learning Dutch for travel, studies, work, relocation to the Netherlands or Belgium, cultural interest, or personal development.
My goal is to help students not only memorize Dutch, but understand its structure and progressively become more independent and confident users of the language.

About Me
I am a Brazilian linguist and language teacher with a Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics from UNICAMP. My academic and personal journey has always been closely connected to languages, communication, culture, and the processes involved in language learning.
I have a particular interest in second-language acquisition, pronunciation, grammar, and contemporary teaching methods. This background allows me to combine linguistic accuracy with a practical and accessible teaching style.
I believe that learning a language goes far beyond memorizing rules and vocabulary. It also means discovering new ways of communicating, understanding cultural references, and gaining confidence in real-life situations.
As a teacher, I value clear explanations, patience, and lessons that are genuinely adapted to each student. My goal is to create a supportive and intellectually engaging learning environment in which students can progress consistently and develop real independence in Brazilian Portuguese.
I also have international academic experience through a DAAD scholarship in Germany, which strengthened my interest in intercultural communication and language education.

My Brazilian Portuguese classes are designed for students who want to communicate naturally and confidently while developing a solid understanding of the language.
As a native Brazilian Portuguese speaker with a Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics from UNICAMP, I combine practical communication with clear explanations of pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, and language structure.
Each lesson is adapted to the student’s level, goals, and learning pace. We can work on conversation, listening comprehension, pronunciation, reading, writing, grammar, and vocabulary in an integrated and progressive way.
For beginners, I focus on building a strong foundation from the start, especially in pronunciation, basic grammar, and everyday communication. For intermediate and advanced learners, lessons can focus on fluency, natural conversation, grammatical accuracy, writing, and a deeper understanding of Brazilian Portuguese as it is actually spoken.
I use authentic materials whenever appropriate, including dialogues, videos, songs, articles, and cultural content, so that students are exposed to real and contemporary Brazilian Portuguese.
Classes can be tailored to different goals, including travel, university, work, interviews, relocation to Brazil, relationships, or simply an interest in Brazilian language and culture.
My goal is not only to teach vocabulary and rules, but to help students develop confidence, independence, and the ability to communicate naturally in Brazilian Portuguese.

My Italian classes are designed for students who want to communicate confidently while developing a clear understanding of how the language works.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics from UNICAMP and academic training at Sapienza University of Rome, I combine linguistic accuracy with a practical, communication-oriented approach adapted to each student’s goals and level.
For complete beginners, lessons focus on pronunciation, essential vocabulary, basic grammar, sentence structure, and everyday expressions. Students gradually learn how to introduce themselves, talk about their daily lives, ask questions, describe people and places, and communicate in common situations.
For intermediate and advanced students, lessons can focus more intensively on conversation, listening comprehension, vocabulary expansion, grammatical accuracy, reading, writing, and developing greater fluency and naturalness.
Special attention can be given to pronunciation, verb conjugation, articles, prepositions, pronouns, agreement, sentence structure, and the differences between formal and informal Italian. Cultural and pragmatic aspects of communication can also be incorporated so that students learn not only what to say, but how Italian is naturally used in different contexts.
Lessons are personalized according to the student’s goals, whether they are learning Italian for travel, university, work, relocation, family connections, cultural interest, or personal development.
My goal is to help students move beyond memorized phrases and progressively understand Italian as a system, developing the confidence and independence needed to communicate effectively.
