Olá! I’m Patricia, a Brazilian from São Paulo with near-native English. After 7 years in New Zealand, where I became fluent in English, I returned to Brazil to teach. With 10 years of experience, I’ve helped students overcome hurdles like understanding native English or learning Portuguese verbs in a fun way. I teach English to anyone looking to improve—Brazilians and Spanish speakers often find my approach especially helpful—and Brazilian Portuguese to foreigners seeking an authentic experience.Me as a Teacher
Learning English as an adult showed me how challenging it can be, so I focus on making lessons clear and approachable. I combine real-world conversation with insights from my own journey, whether you’re an adult sharpening your English or Portuguese for work, travel, or daily life, or a parent wanting engaging lessons for your kids. With interactive activities and personalized feedback, I’m here to support your progress.My lessons & teaching style
My classes are relaxed and practical, using Communicative Language Teaching (real-life conversations) and materials tailored to you—like news, songs, or workplace phrases. I adapt every lesson to your needs and, after a few sessions, create a plan to help you learn confidently on your own. Book a trial, and let’s make language learning enjoyable!My teaching material

Just amazing. She is very experienced. After a few lessons I knew I was in good hands with this teacher and very comfortable and she makes the lessons fun and knows how to adjust to a particular person’s needs . Just great . I will definitely stay with her as my teacher and I think you should give her a shot too .

Patricia is an excellent, excellent Portuguese teacher for both kids and adults.
My child has been learning Portuguese with Patricia using the language immersion method. We have been using this method in other language classes on Italki since my child was 3 years old. Not many teachers understand this method or are comfortable using this method. Thankfully, Patricia understood and felt confident teaching her language in this manner.
She uses different teaching methods that make her classes enjoyable, so much, that my child looks forward to each lesson.
As for her personality, she is very friendly, very flexible and truly wants her students to properly learn her native language.
As a result, we are very happy to continue having her share her gift and love of teaching her native language with us.

This was an excellent first lesson. It was challenging but not overwhelming, and I look forward to more lessons with Patricia as a teacher.
