About Me
italki teacher since May 11, 2021InterestsHistoryFilms & TV SeriesTravelTechMusic
Hello! My name is Milena, and I am a Brazilian passionate about culture and experiencing life through dance and travel. I hold a degree in Social Sciences with an emphasis on Digital Anthropology, Sociology, and the Economics of Immigration and Remittances. Currently, I work remotely as a User and Customer Experience Researcher for an international consultancy.
After focusing on my career and traveling, I’m returning to Italki to share Brazil’s diverse culture and regions with you. I provide a safe, supportive space where making mistakes is welcomed as a key part of building trust and improving. Let’s explore the language and Brazil together!Me as a Teacher
Leveraging my background as a Social Scientist and Researcher, I offer specialized Portuguese programs that bridge the gap between traditional grammar and real-world fluency. My courses go beyond standard conversation, immersing students in Brazilian history, regional cultures, and social dynamics. Whether through customized travel itineraries or academic-level writing and speech practice, my goal is to provide a comprehensive and culturally rich learning experience. My lessons & teaching style

Milena fue muy buena onda, desde el inicio me transmitió confianza y su forma de corregir me gustó mucho, algo que la verdad no he visto antes, asi que definitivamente me gustaría continuar teniendo lecciones con ella. El hecho que Milena hable español perfectamente también me ayuda a entender cosas del portugues de manera más fácil.

Milena is great, she’s so fun to talk to, patient, helpful and adapted perfectly to my level. She also provides amazing resources and things that are of interest outside of the class. Muito obrigado Milena!

A gent falava sobre o Nordeste do Brasil. Milena sabe muito coisa sobre as pessoas e a história do Brasil. Eu tenho muito interesse em aprender sobre essa região e ela me mandou um artigo corto e um vídeo antes da lição. Me deu um contexto antes de ter a aula e me ajudou entender mais durante a aula.
Inclusive aprendi que tem palavras africanas que tem influência no português.
Gostei muito da aula com ela!
