Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

Learning Chinese isn't as stressful as it seems. The key is to have fun and to constantly practice with a native speaker. I teach Chinese for both speaking, writing and reading. I have been tutoring Chinese for years and I have designed various exercises for learning Pinyin, practicing standard pronunciation with gesture as well as daily communicative exercises.

During the lesson, I'd love to my students to speak Chinese as much as they can. Trust me, It's the best way to learn. I also plan game&movie events regularly to help my students get a closer look to the culture.

Hello! 👋

My name is Rafael and I’m from Portugal! :)

I would love to help you on this adventure of learning the Portuguese language.
I’m fluent in teaching both bacalhau Portuguese and caipirinha Portuguese (PT & BR). I’m deeply involved with both cultures.

My classes are tailored to meet the needs of my students. I have the experience and skills to offer conversation lessons and/or more structured classes focused on grammar.
Whatever your reason for seeking Portuguese lessons, I’m here to listen and help you in any way I can.

FYI: I’m also a musician, so we can chat a lot about music or even incorporate it into our Portuguese lessons. Have you ever wanted to analyze the lyrics of Bossa Nova or Fado? If you love Brazilian or Portuguese music, we can definitely use it as class material.

I have been teaching at the Una Paloma Blanca language school in Rotterdam since 2020.

Here, I had the chance to really develop my teaching craft, working with many different students, each with their own needs and reasons for learning Portuguese. I had the opportunity to teach both European and Brazilian Portuguese to individual and group classes.

In addition to this work, I also provided private lessons to some students who needed preparation before moving to Brazil or Portugal.

In my classes, we set personal goals, and I help you with all the knowledge and experience I have.

My lessons are balanced with a good amount of conversation practice, grammar and exercises.

So, you want to learn Portuguese, but you’re still not sure if I’m the right person to help?

I would be delighted to do a lesson so we can introduce ourselves and discuss how I can assist you!

Let me show you how I can be a fun and efficient Portuguese tutor! :)

Thank you for your attention, and I hope to see you in class!

Rafael

Cantonese is the language spoken in Hong Kong and Macau.

In the lessons, you will learn how to hold everyday conversations in Cantonese. In addition, you will get to know Chinese culture in general.

Do you have any ideas for the lessons? We can work together to achieve your learning goals.

Every student has different goals, so I create lessons based on what you want to learn. Whether you want structured grammar lessons, casual conversation practice, help preparing for travel, or simply someone to talk with in Arabic, I can adapt the lessons to your needs.

I am patient, friendly, and flexible. I believe learning a language should be enjoyable and practical. My goal is to help you feel comfortable speaking Arabic from the very beginning while progressing at your own pace.

Just tell me what you would like to learn, the topics you are interested in, or your language goals, and together we will create lessons that suit you perfectly.

I look forward to helping you learn Egyptian Arabic and discover Egyptian culture!
