European Portuguese Lessons and Culture - Tutoring

I am a native Portuguese speaker currently living in the Netherlands (Rotterdam).

As a freelance translator and linguistic specialist, I am used to working with the Portuguese language daily, so I can help you learn Portuguese in many different ways:
- Looking for someone to just talk for some time every day or week to train your accent?
- Looking for someone to correct your Portuguese grammar exercises or texts?
- Looking for someone to explain a difficult grammar detail or offer more vocabulary?

We can find a flexible solution for you, both in terms of what you are looking for, but also in how to achieve it :)

Marcelo
Learn Portuguese 10 weeks - private or group lessons -- professional with teaching qualification - 24 years of experience - online or hybrid
Oi Tudo bem? My name is Marcelo and I am from São Paulo. I teach Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese in The Hague and Rotterdam. Fortunately, I can combine my university studies and 23 years of practical teaching experience in such a way that the lessons are well-founded and stimulating. I have lived and studied in Brazil and Portugal (Coimbra), so I am a native speaker, with a lot of knowledge of the associated culture. By twist of fate, I am also bilingual, so I can explain grammar in Dutch and vice versa. My training is focused on speaking skills. For years I also gave business training at two very well-known language schools, so I know how to transfer a lot of knowledge in a short time. As a student you will feel this immediately from the first lesson. Learning Portuguese for business or urgently (within 10 working days) is also possible. I have a Chamber of Commerce and VAT number. I have a lot of experience teaching lessons via Teams of Whereby (Whereby is more professional and European), even before the crisis because I also teach students in other countries. For virtual lessons, you will receive a transcript of the lesson by email after the lesson. Classes at my home are also possible with 6 feet of distance and good circulation. My lessons are very structured and step by step. In addition, I always explain the 'why' of a grammatical topic, which creates a link that also works better for memory and makes the lesson more interesting. Because I am so results-oriented, I try to gently guide trainees up the stairs to full speaking skills and my job is to make the lessons as educational and attractive as possible. Abraços (kind regards) Marcelo

Gabriel
Portuguese for English Speakers - Brave the lusophone world!
With 270M+ speakers around the world, Portuguese is the last of the Romance Languages (the last "child" of Latin) and the third most spoken in the West, just behind Spanish and English. The laguage is spoken mainly in Portugal (its homeland) and Brazil (most native speakers); knowing how to speak Portuguese will open ways into the best of Lusitan and Brazilian cultures, with a lot of legends and world history to discover! Also, Portuguese is, perhaps, the most sentimental language in the world: you will have at your disposal a myriad of words to express yourself fully and deeply, in a way you never realised it was possible. Ready to discover a whole new world?!

Sara

Portuguese lessons for everyone (beginners, intermediate and advanced) at home or online
Would you like to learn a new skill? You've come to the right place. I am Portuguese and I am fluent in this fantastic language. During my Portuguese lessons you will not only learn the language, but I will also enrich your knowledge about Portuguese culture: Portuguese customs and superstitions for example. I use a teaching method that covers spelling, vocabulary and pronunciation of the words. The latter is often missing in other courses and tutoring. Together we will ensure that you have a good command of the Portuguese language!

Portuguese with Katie - Learn Portuguese with an enthusiastic and qualified teacher who loves languages!

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.

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.

Arno
