Olá! I’m Ryan, a TEFL-certified English teacher from the U.S. living in Brazil. As someone learning Portuguese (A2), I deeply understand the challenges of mastering a second language—especially conversation! My specialty is helping students speak confidently through real-life dialogues, blending grammar with cultural insights from my American roots. With a year of experience teaching locally here, I’ve honed a friendly, patient approach that makes lessons engaging and practical. Let’s turn your English goals into fluent conversations—book a trial and let’s chat!Me as a Teacher
I am from the south in the USA, and that means friendliness, patience, and hospitality in my lessons. I always try to make the lessons both fun and engaging, while bringing my culture and experiences into the lesson. I will be a great teacher for you if you want to learn some of the culture of the USA alongside the English studies, because I am a strong believer that a language is not just words, but the culture of the people who speak it.My lessons & teaching style
I use a communicative style that is designed for students to use English inside and out of the classroom. Each lesson, I will have a conversation with you, and as needed go through grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation exercises. Then, you will have some out of class activities that are designed to make you interact with English between our lessons, and build fluency. Each week we spend time checking your activities, conversing, and exploring the English language as a whole. My lessons are highly engaging and tailored to your needs. Please book a 30 minute trial lesson to see it for yourself!My teaching material
