Hello! I'm Danilo, a native Brazilian Portuguese teacher with a Bachelor's degree in Portuguese and English Languages.

I help teenagers and adults develop fluency and confidence through real conversations, personalized lessons, and practical Brazilian Portuguese used in everyday life.

If your goal is to communicate naturally in Portuguese for travel, work, relationships, or life in Brazil, I'll help you achieve it in a relaxed, supportive, and structured learning environment.

What you'll improve:

• Pronunciation and fluency
• Listening comprehension
• Everyday vocabulary and useful expressions
• Confidence when communicating in Portuguese
• Grammar naturally integrated into conversation

My teaching approach
My lessons focus on conversation, listening comprehension, and real communication rather than memorizing grammar rules.

Instead of spending long periods completing theoretical exercises, you'll actively use Portuguese from the very beginning.

Every lesson is adapted to your:
• Level
• Goals
• Interests
• Learning style

Some students prefer free-flowing conversations, while others enjoy more structured speaking practice. Both approaches are welcome, and I'll adapt the lessons to what helps you learn best.

Making mistakes is a natural part of learning, and my goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable speaking with confidence while receiving clear and constructive feedback.

During our first lesson

We'll discuss:
• Your learning goals
• Your current Portuguese level
• Your strengths and areas for improvement
• Your interests and hobbies
• Your preferred learning style

Based on this, I'll create a personalized learning plan designed specifically for you.

After each lesson, you'll receive a personal Google Drive folder containing:
• Lesson notes
• Pronunciation, grammar, and intonation corrections
• New vocabulary and useful expressions
• Materials used during class
• Optional homework and extra practice

Everything stays organized so you can review your progress whenever you want.

Types of lessons

Conversation Practice
Natural, free-flowing conversations designed to improve fluency, confidence, pronunciation, and spontaneous communication with light corrections during the lesson.

Guided Conversation
Structured conversations based on topics that interest you or support your goals.
You'll receive more guidance, personalized feedback, and grammar explanations whenever necessary.
These lessons are also suitable for beginners who want to start speaking Portuguese naturally from the beginning.

I enjoy helping teenagers and adults gain confidence in Brazilian Portuguese through practical communication and meaningful conversations.

I believe language learning should be enjoyable, motivating, and adapted to each student's goals. That's why I create a supportive environment where students feel comfortable speaking, making mistakes, asking questions, and gradually becoming more confident.

I work with learners from different cultural backgrounds who are studying Portuguese for travel, work, relocation, university, relationships, or personal interest in Brazilian culture.

Seeing my students become more independent and confident speakers is one of the most rewarding parts of teaching.

I look forward to helping you achieve your own language goals!

Education

I work with teenagers and adults from beginner to advanced levels, helping them improve fluency, pronunciation, listening comprehension, vocabulary, and confidence in real-life communication.

My lessons are tailored to each student's objectives, whether they are learning Portuguese for travel, work, relocation, academic studies, relationships, or everyday communication.

My name is Jonathan. I am a young teacher with already 15 years of experience in the field of academic support for primary and secondary school children up to rhetoric.

I also provide individual monitoring for your work method, more particularly in terms of understanding the instructions and the work schedule. If you need a helping hand, I'm here to listen.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

I am a French teacher. I have been teaching French, language, and communication since 2012. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, a little English, and a little Turkish.
I explain my lessons in French, Arabic, or Spanish, depending on your choice.
During the sessions, I explain the course that suits your needs. There is also the option to create an open discussion so that you can speak fluently over time and avoid grammatical gaps.
And at the end of each session, I give "lessons" with "exercises" to do as homework to continue our support and increase your level.

Bring a notebook for this training (or any suitable means) to take notes and keep them.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

I am Imran, 18 years old and a student in 5 VWO (with a completed HAVO diploma). Over the past two years, I have gained experience as a peer coach for lower secondary students, guiding them in science subjects such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry. Additionally, I provide Cito training to primary school students from the age of 7, and I have experience giving private lessons at home.

Whether it concerns extra practice for the Cito test in primary school, or help with science subjects in the lower years of secondary school, I explain calmly and step by step, and align with the level and subject matter of your own school.
