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.Me as a Teacher
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 & teaching style
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.My teaching material

If I had a teacher as patient as Jivana in high school, I’d still be speaking French! Not only is she patient, but very accommodating. I’m very happy to be one of her students!
