About Me
italki teacher since Dec 10, 2016InterestsTravelScienceFilms & TV SeriesHistoryMusic
Host of the *BrazilianTalk Podcast* and a Portuguese teacher with 8+ years of experience! I specialize in helping learners master conversational fluency through dynamic, culturally rich lessons. Born in Alagoas (land of paradise beaches) and now living in multilingual Rio Grande do Sul, I’m passionate about languages such as Portuguese, Hunsrik, and Talian—and love helping students experience authentic language immersion.
When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me dissecting languages, exploring linguistics, learning new recipes, or sharing music recommendations. Let’s turn your Portuguese goals into reality!Me as a Teacher
Since childhood, I've been passionate about studying languages. That's why I not only dedicated myself to learning them but also pursued qualifications to teach. With over 7 years of experience as both an online and in-person teacher, I've had the joy of working with people of all ages and levels. Teaching, for me, is more than just a job; it's a genuine passion that brings me immense joy. 😊 My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are both relaxed and purposeful, designed to ensure your progress after each class. We'll explore various resources, including articles, pictures, songs, videos, and more. Whether you're looking to improve your grammar, pronunciation, writing, or conversational Portuguese, I'm here to assist you.
Our main focus will be on conversation since practice is key to fluency. In each class, we can choose one or more topics—such as technology, travel, hobbies, or culture—and engage in meaningful conversations to enhance your speaking skills. Grammar is also an important aspect we'll cover. I'm highly flexible, tailoring lessons to meet your specific needs. 📚📖My teaching material

Vinicius is easily the best teacher I've ever met on Italki. He made everything so easy to understand!! His methodology is flawless, he has a friendly personality, and he's an expert at what he does. I'm so excited to learn Portuguese with him! With his help, I'm sure I'll reach a conversational level in no time!

Vini assigns a video or an article in Portuguese in advance of the class that we review. He asks questions to measure our comprehension of the video or article. In turn, we often pose questions about several new vocabulary words and when to use them. The lessons are conducted entirely in Portuguese and usually begin with a discussion of our activities during the previous week.
Vini is an extremely capable, caring, and intelligent teacher who is very patient helping us develop our Portuguese language skills.

After 100+ lessons with Vinícius, I have enjoyed every class with him. He is patient and supportive when learning new grammar and pronunciation. Every lesson is fun, and I leave each lesson with new vocabulary to study. I recommend having a lesson with Vinícius!

Great lesson! The teacher is very good at explaining and speaking in a way that foreign learners can easily understand. He is patient, encouraging, and makes conversation feel natural. Corrections were clear and helpful. I really enjoyed the lesson and would happily recommend him.
