Learn Brazilian Portuguese with a Native Linguist — Conversation, Pronunciation, Grammar, and Real-Life Communication
From 41 C$ /h
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.

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.
