Hello! My name is Giovanni, I'm Brazilian from São Paulo, but currently living in Italy. My native language is Portuguese 🇧🇷, but I'm also fluent in Italian 🇮🇹, Spanish 🇪🇸 and English 🇬🇧. I have a degree in Geography, so I am trained to be a teacher. I love the process of learning new languages and understand the challenge it presents... I believe it's one of my hobbies, along with photography, videomaking, traveling and tech. I really enjoy discussing Brazilian culture with foreigners and learning about their culture. Speaking multiple languages and being able to teach Portuguese to my students is truly an amazing opportunity to do so!

Me as a Teacher
Learning a new language is an incredible process. Imagine being able to travel to another country and communicate in their language? My goal is not only to help you learn or improve your Portuguese but also to introduce you to Brazil, our culture, customs, and ways of speaking. I'm a cheerful person and enjoy creating a relationship of respect and friendship with my students. My priority is to make you feel comfortable and at ease, allowing you to make as many mistakes as necessary.
My lessons & teaching style
My classes will be based on your interests, needs and goals, which we will discuss in our trial lesson. My teaching method is completely flexible, it all depends on your level and what you enjoy: if something doesn't work for you, we won't do it. If you want something very specific, we can do that. The lesson is designed the way YOU LEARN THE BEST!
And if you just want conversation classes, feel free to talk about whatever you want and feel comfortable with: after all, learning a new language is much more enjoyable when we feel motivated and comfortable. I love talking about a little bit of everything, and most importantly, I love listening to what you have to say!

Le lezioni con Giovanni sono sempre interessanti ed efficaci.
È un insegnante paziente ed è molto predisposto all’ascolto. Anche per strutturare delle lezioni cerca prima di capire a fondo le necessità dell’allievo e organizza gli incontri in funzione del bisogno dello studente. Ha una notevole conoscenza del suo Paese. Le sue lezioni sono spesso calate all’interno della vita e della cultura del Brasile. Lo consiglio vivamente.

Giovanni è un insegnante molto simpatico e paziente. Mi ha fatto sentire a mio agio fin dall'inizio e mi ha incoraggiato a parlare e a fare domande senza timore di sbagliare.
Durante la lezione abbiamo conversato su argomenti interessanti. Ho apprezzato molto la sua capacità di adattarsi al mio livello di competenza e di fornirmi un feedback costruttivo e personalizzato. Grazie alla sua esperienza, ho potuto imparare molte parole nuove e anche la pronuncia del portoghese.
In generale, la lezione è stata molto divertente e interessante. Non vedo l'ora di continuare a prendere lezioni con Giovanni e di migliorare sempre di più il mio portoghese! Consiglio vivamente a tutti di provare una lezione con lui. Grazie per l'ottima esperienza!
