    Brazilian Portuguese Made Simple: go from beginner to fluent with lessons tailored to you!

    Hello! I’m Débora, but you can call me Debbie 😊

    Important things about me:

    I am from Brazil and I am based in Brazil
    I speak Portuguese and English
    10 years of teaching experience
    I have a degree in Language and Arts (State University of Feira de Santana) and Interior Design (University of Salvador)
    I have a specialization in Psychopedagogy (Visconde de Cairu Foundation)
    I have some certifications:


    1. Making Thinking Visible: building understanding through critical and creative thinking (Harvard University - 2013)
    2. The Opportunity of Bilingualism (Harvard University - 2017)
    3. Introduction to Creativity in Language Teaching: using visuals in language classroom (University of Minnesota - 2021)
    4. Learner Feedback for Language Growth (University of Minnesota - 2022)


    Important things about my methodology:

    - Student-centered learning approach (the lessons are 100% personalized based on student’s needs, goals, pace and learning style)
    - Project Based Learning approach (students build something related to the topic we are studying to show they understood it and present it to me in portuguese, of course 🙂)
    - Fun classes (recipes, songs, games, karaoke, workshops etc...)
    - For beginner students, I like to start from the basics (useful expressions, alphabet, numbers, question words, most common nouns, verbs, adverbs & adjectives, prepositions etc to make them able to build sentences and communicate)
    - For upper intermediate and advanced students I like to teach language through content (we can talk about a variety of topics and learn grammar at the same time)
    You will improve all four skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking


    I teach:
    - Literacy in Portuguese for Kids
    - Portuguese for Travels
    - Portuguese from Zero to Hero 🙂
    - Conversational Portuguese
    - Portuguese Grammar
    - Pronunciation Tips
    - Portuguese Slangs
    - Exam Preparatory Course (CELPE - BRAS)

    Are you in need of Portuguese language tuition in London or online? I'm a dedicated and enthusiastic Portuguese tutor with a background in languages and a passion for teaching. Coming from a trilingual family, I speak Spanish, Portuguese, and English fluently and hold a first-class BA in History with Spanish and Portuguese from the University of Leeds.

Having taught Spanish to secondary school students in London for three years and acted as a GCSE Portuguese speaking examiner within the school, I now focus on private tutoring full-time. Whether you're looking for formal public exam preparation or a tutor to practise everyday conversational skills with, I'm ready and willing to help. My hour-long lessons are designed to be an open and encouraging space in which students can practise and improve their language skills. I work to ensure that they are fun, interactive and as light-hearted as possible while always focused intently on my students' learning needs. My goal is not only to help you achieve your language goals but also to ignite a love for Portuguese and its culture. Let's embark on this language-learning journey together!

    OI! Vamos aprender se divertindo ?! HOLA! Aprendamos divirtiéndonos !? : D
    I am Brazilian bilingual in Spanish, born on a beautiful peninsula near Rio: Buzios, one of the main destinations for Argentines in Brazil. Passionate about travel, I love discovering new cultures and interacting with people. I make intercultural experiences a priority in my classes. I offer classes that correspond to your level. After a first conversation we will determine the objectives to be reached and at the end of each module we will decide together on the next objective. A language is learned mainly by doing. I therefore offer activities that will allow you to improve yourself every day, such as: interactive methods, formal and informal conversations etc. All of this will prepare you for your day-to-day life in general, including anything related to work, travel, chats, etc. We will also study with the help of films, text books and music that go according to your interest. And of course we will also do grammar exercises to consolidate the basics.
