Hello! You will learn Portuguese. Enjoy the language!

Oi Tudo bem? My name is Marcelo and I am from São Paulo. I live in The Hague and I teach Portuguese in The Hague-Centre, Rotterdam-Centre and Amsterdam-Centre. As an experienced teacher of Portuguese and Brazilian Portiguese, working for two well known language institutes and with 17 years of teaching experience based on a Masters Degree of Literature, I want to expand my activities, because of an increased demand for affordable lessons Portuguese. I teach individual trainees and small groups. group rates are usually 50% lower. I will teach a group Beginners on September 26th in the Centre of Rotterdam, easy to reach by public transport and free parking (!). The hours are 19.00 till 20.30. Groups have a maximum of 5 students, so it will always feel like private lessons. Group lessons consist 10 lessons of 1.5 intensive hours and an extra (!) lesson live in a wonderful new Brazilian Restaurant. My goal is to teach you the basics (European level A-1, A-2) or if you are advanced (B-1 and B-2) in a short period. with Dutch or English as a channel for explanation of the grammar. For Dutch people, explantion of grammar in Dutch (only in the beginning) is way more effective. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports. ’tarefas de casa’ (homework) will take you about 3 to 4 hours per week. The private lessons consist of an structured explanation of grammar and a part of the lesson where the student puts this immediately into practice with fluency practice (short sentences). I have an enormous passion for teaching, and after 17 years it still feels like brand new (even better with all the experience now..) so students can feel this. In Portuguese we call it paixão (paaisjaung). Give it a try, you will learn Portuguese much faster than you expected. Abraços (kind regards) Marcelo.
