Italian for Brazilians & for your life in Italy — speak with confidence, not fear. Ciao! I'm Alana. I grew up in Italy, I live here but my roots are Brazilian — I've also lived and worked abroad, so I know exactly what it means to build a new life in a new language. If you're Brazilian: I know where lusophone learners get stuck, because I've helped many. We can lean on Portuguese whenever you need it, so you progress faster and without stress. If you're planning a trip — or a move — to Italy: I teach the real Italian you'll actually use for daily life, bureaucracy, renting, work and travel — not textbook Italian. I'm DITALS-certified with 100+ lessons here. My students say I'm calm, patient and encouraging — so if you're afraid to speak, you're in the right place. We go at your pace. My lessons are conversation-driven: real practice, gentle correction of the mistakes that matter, and grammar explained simply. Each lesson ends with a short written summary so you can keep studying at home. Italiano • Português • English

I love my lessons with Alana! She encourages me to speak and keeps the conversation going with questions and suggestions. She also corrects my mistakes while allowing the flow of the lesson to continue.

All'inizio della lezione ero nervosissima, ma Alana mi ha fatto sentire completamente a mio agio. È molto paziente, gentile, e serena. Grazie mille, Alana!
