Adults

Levels: You can start from Basic (A1) to High Advanced (C+). If you are not a complete beginner, you can do a level test so we can place you at the correct level.

Online private lessons: You choose the date, time and the number of hours to suit your availability. Need to study Portuguese for work, for fun or planning a visit to Brazil? Are you going to take a test in Portuguese? Do you have Brazilian roots? Let's talk about your goals before the first class to bring up the important topics for you during the lessons.

Online group lessons: Are you two or a group wanting to study Portuguese together?
Are you part of a company or institution where knowledge of Portuguese is required?
*Individuals with some knowledge of Portuguese have to take a leveling test so that the students studying in groups have almost the same level.

Preparing for Celpe-Bras: The Certificate of Proficiency in Portuguese for Foreigners (Celpe-Bras) is the official Brazilian exam to certify proficiency in Portuguese as a foreign language. The exam takes place every six months in Brazil and abroad by Inep, with support from the Ministry of Education (MEC) and in partnership with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The main benefits of passing the Celpe-Bras is to Get Access to Brazilian Universities, find work in Brazil and get Brazilian Citizenship. Since 2015, I've been an accredited examiner of the Certificate of Proficiency in Portuguese for Foreigners (CELPE-Bras) and I have the methodology and the material necessary for the student to be well prepared to pass the oral and written exam.

Conversation Sessions: Conversation sessions will be organized for students of the same level so that they get to know each other and improve their conversational skills while I will be monitoring and guiding.

Lessons in person: Are you in Rio de Janeiro? You can book lessons in person around the Copacabana and Ipanema area. The location could be arranged prior to the lessons.

Kids

Online Portuguese lessons: Lessons for kids starting 5 years old.
Objectives: to promote contact with Brazilian culture and Portuguese language, emphasizing communication, promoting children's autonomy and creativity.

For Portuguese as a Heritage Language: It is very important to allow the new generation of Brazilian children born abroad or emigrated at an early age to have access to our language and our popular culture, thus reinforcing ties with the homeland. It is essential that parents speak Portuguese with the children for the development of the language and participate in activities with the Brazilian community. Brazilian culture will be presented during our lessons through storytelling, songs, games and more fun activities.
