Hi there! My name is Karine, and I'm from Maceió, a sunny city in Brazil! I'm a very curious person, passionate about music, books, and animals (I have three cats and a dog that light up my days!).
I believe learning a language is all about connecting with people and their cultures. That's why I love hearing about my students' experiences and sharing a little bit about the Brazilian way of life. My main priority is to create a welcoming and respectful classroom environment.Me as a Teacher
I hold a degree in English from the Federal University of Alagoas (UFAL). My journey as a teacher began during my university studies, where I taught English to the local community and fellow students as part of a university-led project.
I later transitioned to online teaching for language institutes. After graduating, I continued working at language schools and as a private tutor, which has solidified my specialty in guiding beginner-level students. I have a deep understanding of the initial challenges of learning a language and know exactly how to build the strong foundation you need to advance toward fluency with confidence. My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are 100% personalized, with one main goal: to get you speaking. From day one, we'll focus on conversation in a safe, patient, and professional environment, where you'll have the freedom to practice and ask questions.
My teaching style is light and communicative. We'll use real-world materials like music and videos so you can learn the Portuguese that people actually use. In every class, you'll receive clear feedback and practical tips to help you improve, always leaving you feeling more confident than when you started.My teaching material

Karine is a very calm, positive, caring and a creative teacher to study Portuguese with. In my first class she taught me different kind of phrases that I can use to talk to people in Portuguese during my travels. She also encouraged me to speak the language so that I can learn new words and improve my speaking skills. It was a nice class to understand and connect with the Portuguese language.
