🌼 Language & literature lessons | Proofreading | Translation 🌼 Hello! My name is Jivana, and I’m a Portuguese teacher with a degree in Language (Portuguese-French) and Literature. I’m passionate about learning new languages, exploring the world around me, and immersing myself in different cultures. In my free time, I love cooking, reading all kinds of books, and spending quality time with my loved ones and pets. I began teaching in 2015 during my internship at a Canadian bilingual school in Brazil. This experience marked the beginning of many rewarding opportunities in education. I understand how challenging learning a new language can be, and I’m here to support and guide you in reaching your goals. My lessons are tailored to each student’s individual skills, needs, and interests. I strive to make my classes as dynamic and engaging as possible to maintain students’ attention while encouraging them to keep improving and progressing in their target language. I work with online and digitized teaching materials, including PDF files, articles, texts, grammar and vocabulary exercises, songs, and videos. In addition to learning and practicing European Portuguese with me, you’ll also have the opportunity to explore the rich cultures and customs of Portugal and/or Brazil.

Jivana is always nice and balanced. Her personality encourages you to make mistakes more easy because you know that she is not there to judge you, but to help you. She is careful, patient and ready to take your language skills to the next level. She bonds and connects with you so you don't feel like you are taking lessons from a stranger. You feel like you are home and thus very comfortable and self-confident!

Very patient with me. I have not been able to dedicate time to review recently. Jivana makes the class and learning very forgiving and therefore successful.

Uma boa aula com a Jivana, em que a gente falou um pouco sobre cada um de nós. A Jivana é uma pessoa detalhista e anotou todos os erros que cometi, exatamente como eu queria. Também foi a primeira vez que falei e ouvi português europeu, e foi muito “fixe” ter essa oportunidade!
