I'm Gui, native Portuguese speaker from São Paulo, Brazil.
I majored in International Relations and I learned English and Spanish while living abroad.
I’ve been traveling the world working as a digital nomad while creating social media content for Portuguese learners and for those interested in learning about Brazil in all its aspects.
I’ve been teaching since 2020 and have worked with students from over 40 countries, teaching Portuguese and Brazil’s history and culture.
I'm a traveler, a dreamer and adventurer.
If you want to learn Brazil’s language, history and culture, I'm your guy! :)

Me as a Teacher
I'm a friendly, engaging and very open mind person.
I believe classes should be fun because this way learning a new language becomes a nice and enjoyable process.
I also have my own material with readings, exercises and complete grammar content for beginners to advanced students. And the students can have all the material after the lesson.
My lessons & teaching style
I have three different types of classes:
- Conversation practice
- Grammar, reading, pronunciation and comprehension
- Brazil's history and culture

Gui is a really gifted teacher and I recommend him hands down to anyone. I always leave the lesson feeling like I've improved my portuguese and that I learned something new.
Gui is encouraging and personable, and focuses on the needs of the student. He tailors the lessons to what you'd like to improve, and is skilled at identifying your weaknesses, all while sharing relevant vocabulary and cultural things. We work on conversation, grammar, reading, and writing in every lesson, with a focus on specific tenses, expressions, or verb uses and their real life applications. I'm looking forward to many more lessons ☺️

Fantastic class! I was engaged with the content the minute it started & learned some very interesting facts. Guilherme is a great communicator and keeps things moving. He's also really good about answering questions. If you're wanting to learn about Brazil, this is your class! Highly recommend! Obrigada Guilherme pela aula fantástica!

I've been studying Brazilian Portuguese with Guilherme for several months now, and he has really given me confidence to speak and to have whole conversations in a new language! He also has his own materials which he uses in class which are really helpful. I would highly recommend Guilherme if you want a fun and dynamic Portuguese experience.

Guilherme provided the best class I have ever had. He is incredibly prepared, thoughtful, and knows how to infuse all ways of learning into his teaching. He answered all of my questions and was always willing to adjust and change subjects as needed. He uplifted my confidence and was always sharing useful tips and advice for my journey into Portuguese. I am looking forwarded to my continued learning!!
