Living in Olinda, Brazil

Certified French and Brazilian Portuguese teacher with 15 years of experience I’m Rhuana, Brazilian, from Recife and currently living in Olinda—regions rich in culture, vibrant rhythms, popular festivities, and unique cuisine. I hold a degree in Languages (Portuguese and French) from UFPE, a postgraduate degree in Applied Linguistics to Portuguese Language Teaching from FAFIRE, and I studied Language Didactics at Sorbonne Nouvelle in Paris. Since 2011, I have been working as a teacher of Portuguese (as both a native and foreign language) and French, with experience in schools, language courses, and online lessons. I work with students of different levels and profiles, offering dynamic, engaging, and personalized lessons focused on each student’s goals and interests. I have a Languages degree (Portuguese and French) from the UFPE and I did a postgraduate course in Applied Linguistics to Portuguese Language Teaching in the FAFIRE. I also had the opportunity to study Didactics for Languages for six months in the Université Sorbonne Nouvelle, in Paris. Since 2011, I work as a teacher of Portuguese (as first and foreign language) and French and I’ve had experiences in schools, language courses, online lessons… So I have a large experience teaching both of them and I had the opportunity to teach students with different levels, profiles and goals. My lessons are dynamic, fun and prepared according to the student's objective and interests. I use grids, based on the CEFR, which indicate what needs to be developed at each level (A1, A2…).

J'adore le style d'enseignement de Rhuana! J'ai l'impression que je fais du progrès rapidement grâce à sa façon très immersive d'enseigner. Pendant la leçon on fait de tout: de l'oral, de l'écrit, de la compréhension, et elle fait attention à ma prononciation, ce que je trouve important. Elle me parle uniquement en portugais depuis le début, et elle essaye d'expliquer tout en portugais, ce que j'apprécie beaucoup. Je recommande surtout pour ceux qui parlent aussi le français vu qu'elle enseigne les deux langues. I cannot recommend Rhuana enough! She is a great teacher and I really like her style. I feel like I have made very quick progress with her. We always do a variety of exercises: speaking, listening, writing, and she pays attention to my pronunciation as well, which I find really important. Her style is very immersive and she speaks portuguese with me as much as possible. Her lessons are really engaging and I highly recommend her!

Rhuana is very organized, patient, and uses different methods to convey understanding of Brazilian portuguese in her lessons. I warmly recommend studying with her because the teaching styles she adopts is engaging and fun!

Another great lesson. Rhuana is a fantastic teacher who takes the time to prepare lesson materials in advance. I started learning Portuguese at an A1 level in January, and I believe I have already made considerable progress due to the structured nature of Rhuana's lessons. Would recommend to anyone interested in starting to learn Brazilian Portuguese.
