Oi, tuo beleza? My name is Felipe, I'm 36 years old, and I'm a Portuguese teacher for foreigners. I speak English and Spanish, a result of my love for languages and for traveling the world. I've lived in Costa Rica and Brazil, where I was born, and today I live in Lisbon.Me as a Teacher

Minha principal característica é usar toda a minha experiência teórica e prática para fazer você atingir a proficiência em português de uma maneira sólida e consistente.

I’ve been teaching Portuguese outside of Brazil for 5 years now, both online and in person. My main approach is to use all of my theoretical and practical experience to help you reach Portuguese fluency in a solid and consistent way. We’ll work with dedication, commitment, and technique until you achieve your goal of communicating well.My lessons & teaching style
Eu acredito que se você quer comunicar bem em um idioma, você precisa trabalhar com elementos autênticos criados naquele idioma, tais como poemas, artigos, vídeos e músicas, por exemplo. Com isto em mente, eu preparo aulas baseadas em gramática e em conversação usando estes materiais genuínos como ponto de partida.

I believe that if you want to communicate well in a language, you need to work with authentic materials created in that language, such as poems, articles, videos, and songs, for example. With this in mind, I design lessons based on grammar and conversation, using these genuine materials as a starting point.My teaching material

Gracias por todo, Felipe! A todos los hispanohablantes que quieran aprender portugués, lo recomiendo sin duda. Felipe no solo es hablante nativo, sino que tiene formación en la enseñanza del idioma, y eso se nota mucho y marca la diferencia. Su ayuda con la pronunciación, junto con los consejos y tareas, te hacen mejorar. Además, entiende el español perfectamente, lo que facilita mucho el proceso de aprendizaje. Estoy muy contenta con las clases. Muito obrigada! :-)

La lezione introduttiva mi è piaciuta molto. Sono stato in grado di raccontare a Felipe perché sto imparando il portoghese e come vorrei strutturare le nostre lezioni insieme. Felipe è molto simpatico e si è dimostrato subito aperto ad adattare le lezioni alle mie esigenze specifiche. Ha anche trovato il tempo di spiegarmi in maniera chiara alcune peculiarità della pronuncia portoghese. Grazie en alla prossima!
