Learning a new language is a beautiful way to connect with the world, and I am here to make that journey feel safe and encouraging for you. In this course, we will explore the foundations of Portuguese through gentle, real-life conversations that focus on the joy of communicating rather than the stress of perfect grammar. As a tutor, I truly value empathy and patience, always adapting to your personal rhythm to ensure you feel seen and supported in every lesson. Whether you are a young learner or an adult returning to studies, my goal is to build your confidence and help you discover the warmth of the Portuguese language in a space where you can truly thrive.

Oi querido(a) estudante!

Do you want to learn the vibrant Brazilian Portuguese with a native teacher?
I am here for you! I am passionate about my language and culture, so I would love to share it with you.

I can teach you through dynamic and fun classes that get you emmerged in the Brazilian culture. When you realize it, you are already speaking the language!

I am very flexible and can teach people of different ages, levels and needs. Let's learn to sing beautiful samba lyrics! Let's learn about Bossa Nova and its magic! Let's feel the Brazilian heat while remaining in the Netherlands! Let's learn the "jeitinho brasileiro" to be able to make great deals with Brazilian companies!

Since 2018, I have been teaching Portuguese via Apprentus to several students. It's been very enjoyable to me as well as to my students and I am particularly proud of their development and achievements within a short period! I hope you can be my next student, who is going to make me very proud of!

Vamos aprender português juntos! Tenho certeza que você irá se apaixonar por essa língua assim como eu! Até breve! :)

The wonderful Portuguese adventure!

Advantages of learning a new language:

Learning a new language is fun. But what I’m (and you should be) after is not bilingualism but instead biculturalism. We think by aid of words. Therefore language shapes thought. In part this is because working in a second language slows down the thinking. No wonder people feel different when speaking a second language. And no wonder they feel looser, more spontaneous, perhaps more assertive or funnier or blunter.
Studies show that being able to speak another language is generally linked to a more flexible brain, developing the brain’s ability to plan and prioritize. Also it betters our defenses against dementia in old age.

Advantages of learning Portuguese:

• 250 million native speakers worldwide
• 5th most common language in the world
• It has been an official language since 1297
• It’s usage is spread over 4 continents (Europe, South America, Africa, Asia)

Now business,

The pace, duration, frequency and schedule of the classes is totally up to the student to decide. The best case scenario is 1-2x per week depending on both parties availability.

Focus on diverse subjects is possible, for example, grammar, diction, reading comprehension, written production, conversational skills.
In case the student has no specific requests, together we will follow the guidelines of a trusted book (that I myself bring to the class and the student doesn’t need to acquire).

In every class the student will be directly influenced by worldwide Portuguese culture ( music, history, geography).
Periodically we will evaluate how the classes are evolving so as to rapidly and effectively shift focus to where it is needed.

Hello Everyone! Welcome to fun and enjoyable Portuguese lessons online!

My name is Paula and I am a qualified Portuguese teacher. I studied to be a Waldorf primary teacher and also completed the TEFL, which additionally allows me to teach English.I also have a bachelor's degree is in Cinema and Communication.

I am half Brazilian/half Portuguese and I also teach both Brazilian and European Portuguese, depending on your preference. I am fascinated by all the varieties of my language and the small distinctions between them. It's so beautiful!

I first meet students for lessons, to get to know their objectives, their interests, and what kind of learners they are. Each person is different and I try to adapt to every student. In my classes, I use a communicative approach and we start talking from day 1. My goal is to make students feel comfortable with the language and not be afraid to make mistakes. I work on the development of speaking, reading, listening, and writing skills, as well as proper pronunciation and vocabulary enhancement.

In my classes, you will learn about Brazilian or Portuguese culture, through music, texts, videos, quizzes, and pictures. Classes for children are full of games and arts!

If you feel that this is a good fit for you, come book lessons with me! Hope to see you soon,

Paula

Both Brazilian and European Portuguese. We will start with the basic grammar of the Portuguese language. Depending on the pace and experience of the student, conversation will gradually take place in Portuguese. You will receive useful and practical tips to make learning the language even more fun.

Ik bied Portugese lessen aan en ik zou het geweldig vinden als jullie een les proberen! Mijn lessen zijn ontworpen om aan de unieke behoeften van elke student te voldoen, zodat je kunt leren op een manier die bij je past.
Mijn methode is gepersonaliseerd en interactief, waardoor je actief de taal kunt leren. We zullen ons richten op de elementaire onderdelen van de taal, zoals grammatica en uitspraak, terwijl we ons ook concentreren op conversatie en luistervaardigheden.
In mijn lessen zullen we ook oefenen met luisteren, spreken, lezen en schrijven. Zo kun je de taal op een allround manier leren. Bovendien zal ik je stimuleren om zelf je communicatievaardigheden in het Portugees te ontwikkelen en de taal ook in het dagelijks leven te gebruiken.
Ik kijk er naar uit om samen met jou te spreken en jouw reis in het Portugees te beginnen! :)
Ik bied ook conversatie lessen aan! Schrijf me om meer te weten:-)

My name is Nayara, and I'm from Brazil. I was a primary school teacher there from 2010. I also have experience giving private Portuguese lessons to people who start working after their education and can't speak or write Portuguese well. I have my own online materials to help with lessons. If you're traveling to Brazil and want to learn the language and culture, I can help. I have good teaching methods with good examples of the Brazilian people's lives. I'm sure you'll quickly learn to speak Portuguese.
