Hi! I’m Belkis, a Brazilian Portuguese teacher from São Paulo with 6+ years of experience. Fluent in English and passionate about languages (I’ve studied in Australia and lived in Japan!), I specialize in helping beginners and intermediates speak confidently through relaxed, real-life conversations.
When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me surfing or meditating by the beach—my love for sports and mindfulness keeps my classes energetic yet calming. Let’s make learning Portuguese as fun as chatting with a friend!Me as a Teacher

Bebel is so experienced to upgrade students step by step. When i began to follow her lesson, i only knew several words. Just after 3 months, i could chat with her in simple portugues i learned in the lessons. It is very important to open mouth to speak during language learning. If you want to find an effective teacher in portugues learning, Bebel would be the ideal choice.

It is always so enjoyable conversing with Belkis!
Belkis allows me to articulate my thoughts (no matter how slow I am at speaking!) and kindly provides feedback and corrections after I finish my thought. The conversation always flows and we are able to connect very easily.
I HIGHLY recommend Belkis as your next Portuguese teacher if you are looking to improve your Portuguese!

Bebel is so patient and encouraging teacher. Though I am a fully beginner like a baby learning language, I am confident to master Portuguese with her help.
