Portuguese language and culture lessons with a native speaker
De echte Portugese ervaring! 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, For the past 5 years I've had more than 50 students and based on experience I recommend the following lesson duration (minutes): Age gap 0-6 | 7-12 | 13-17 | 18-45 | 45-64 | 65+ Duration 30 | 30-60 | 60 | 90 | 90-60 | 45 Focus on diverse subjects is possible, for example, grammar, diction, reading comprehension, written production, conversational skills. Because the goal of most students is the ability to communicate, I’ve been developing my classes that way. I have acquired extra audio media specially for you :) to hear Portuguese being spoken at a different pace, accent and voice tone. My method is based on a book (that I myself bring to the class and the student doesn’t need to acquire) which I'm fairly familiar by now. But what I really like is to talk to the student. So the book will be used to present the gramatical structure of the language while also serving as an inspiration platform for conversation topics. Periodically we will evaluate how the classes are evolving so as to rapidly and effectively shift focus to where it is needed.

Francisca
Portuguese Portuguese Portuguese Portuguese Portuguese
Olá, tudo bem? Would you like to learn how to speak Portuguese? We can do it together! My name is Francisca, from Portugal, and I'm 26 years old, leaving in the Netherlands for the past 2 years.

Teresa
Portuguese, preparing for exams or just for holidays
Portugal is a beautiful country and during your holiday, or if you want to live there, you want to be able to understand and speak the Portuguese people in their own language. Or you are at school and you have chosen Portuguese as a foreign language because you plan to work there.

Portuguese - beginner, intermediate, advanced level

I assign homework every other week and I will provide periodic progress and evaluation reports.

António
Portuguese classes for all ages: Discover the language of Camões.
These classes aim at people who want to develop their Portugueses skills, both from scratch with some previous knowledge. The pedagogical structure is adaptable to the situation; school-aged children with Portuguese parent(s) who don't always have the time and opportunity to teach them, adults who need practical advice and relatively quick skill training because of a Portuguese-speaking partner, friend, traveling, etc... Students are always encouraged to develop their interest in the Portuguese language.

David

English classes for young learners 5 to 12 years old. The classes are ludic, vibrant and the main goal is to stimulate the curiosity of learning English and keep them motivated to express themselves in the second language. The classes are prepared according to the personal need of the student and the metodology envolves the use of 100% of the English language with games, art, music and dancing.

Both Brazilian and European Portuguese. We will start with the basic grammar of the Portuguese language.

Do you want to start speaking Portuguese? The second most beautiful language in the world
The best way to speak a language is not by learning boring grammar rules; the best way is to start having routine conversations, and gradually get comfortable. With experience in Brazil and Portugal, if you want to get into the Portuguese language, I can help you to start speaking the second most beautiful language in the world, a language very similar to Spanish. Apart from the grammar and vocabulary that I will provide you, we will have conversations, and why not, even listen to songs.
