Portuguese Language Learning
Being fluent in Portuguese means more than being able to sustain a day-to-day conversation with a native speaker. It can also mean being able to hold an intellectually sophisticated conversation about any subject.
What can I offer?
My one-to-one teaching draws on the many and varied interests of my students. This means that you can expect to learn in a stimulating environment.
I will help you clarify your goals so you can refine your approach. This will have a positive impact on your learning skills and performance. 
As a result, you'll keep on target, on track and experience improvement as well as enjoying yourself.
I hold a Master's of Arts Degree in Portuguese from the University of Porto in Portugal. Prior to that, I was educated in Translation Studies at the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil. Currently, I am preparing myself to resume my PhD studies in Portuguese at the University of Lisbon halted due to a lack of resources.
