Olá! 😊 I’m Alana, a Brazilian Portuguese teacher passionate about helping students speak português confidently from the first lesson.
Viajar e conhecer culturas diferentes faz parte da minha vida — já visitei EUA, Peru, Colômbia e Argentina. Essas experiências me ajudam a entender os desafios de aprender outro idioma e se comunicar em outra cultura.
I help students speak português in everyday situations: travel, work, or general conversations. Minhas aulas são dinâmicas, personalizadas e interativas, focadas em comunicação, pronúncia e cultura brasileira. 🌍
Se você busca um ambiente acolhedor para praticar português, I’d love to guide you. Vamos começar a falar português juntos!

Me as a Teacher
Ensino português brasileiro há três anos e, nesse período, aprendi o que funciona melhor para ajudar os alunos a desenvolverem confiança na fala desde o primeiro dia. Minhas aulas são focadas em conversas reais, informações culturais e exercícios práticos, criando uma experiência de aprendizado imersiva que torna o processo eficaz e agradável. Seja você iniciante ou queira aprimorar suas habilidades, personalizo cada aula para atender aos seus objetivos e ajudá-lo a falar português com naturalidade e confiança.
My lessons & teaching style
Minhas aulas de português são projetadas para serem acessíveis, dinâmicas e voltadas para a comunicação. Utilizo uma abordagem prática e focada, sempre com recursos visuais e exemplos claros, para garantir que os alunos compreendam facilmente os conceitos. Criar um ambiente acolhedor e motivador é essencial para que todos se sintam à vontade para praticar e aprender com confiança, sem medo de errar. Meu objetivo é construir uma base sólida e contínua, que permita aos alunos desenvolverem suas habilidades linguísticas com segurança e entusiasmo. So if you believe I have what it takes, it would be an honor to guide you on your language journey.

Teacher Alana never ceases to amaze me! She is always looking for different ways to help me as a student.
Today, I loved the idea that she brought to class to help me with reading and pronunciation; the attention to detail that she brings to our classes is second to none!

Wow! What a fantastic Portuguese conversation class that I just had with Alana! I can't wait for my next lesson with her. I am going to aim for daily lessons with her when my schedule permits. She is so calm, focused, encouraging and friendly. I really enjoyed speaking with her. I felt like I already knew her from the start! She creates such a comfortable learning environment. The quality of her internet was perfect and I could hear her clearly and easily. It was a perfect class. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn and enjoy this beautiful language. I also very much appreciated that she spoke to me the entire time in Portuguese. It was full emersion. And she also provided me with links of her beautiful country and grammar. What a positive experience with Alana!
