About Me
italki teacher since Apr 28, 2021InterestsTravelEnvironment & NaturePets & AnimalsFoodSports & Fitness
Hi! I'm Bruno from Florianópolis, and I lived for many years in Brasília and Central America.
Over the years, I’ve worked closely with learners who studied bookish Portuguese but still found real conversations confusing. That experience led me to publish a guide focused on the structures of spoken Brazilian Portuguese — the patterns that shape everyday speech but rarely appear in textbooks.
I know how challenging language learning can be. I’ve studied English and Spanish myself and am currently improving my Persian (Farsi), which helps me understand the real challenges learners face.
I look forward to helping you develop real confidence in Brazilian Portuguese.
Até logo! 😊Me as a Teacher
I'm a certified teacher since 2007. I started teaching Portuguese online in 2020 with the pandemic, and I've been here ever since. I believe that conversation is one of the best ways to learn a language. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong focus on spoken Brazilian Portuguese — how it actually sounds and works in real life.
My teaching approach is all about creating a comfortable space where students feel at ease to try out their new language skills without fear. I celebrate every achievement, and aim to make our classes fun, interesting, and engaging My lessons & teaching style
My classes are designed to be fun and enjoyable, and on helping you move beyond textbook Portuguese.
I offer:
• Conversation & real-life speaking practice
• Portuguese for beginners
• General Portuguese (speaking, listening, writing, vocabulary, idioms)
• Portuguese for travelers
I pay special attention to pronunciation and rhythm, because sounding natural makes understanding and being understood much easier.My teaching material

Bruno is on the ball. He knows what he is talking about and understands the students life style without having to prompt him. I hate recommending him as this will fill his available hours to disadvantage.... but he is damn good!

He is a wonderful teacher.
I have studied many languages on italki. The teachers I have met over the course of more than 1000 hours are treasures to me.
And he stands out among them all.
I highly recommend taking his lessons.

Já faz um bom tempo que estudo português com Bruno! Adoro as aulas! Conversamos bastante, falamos sobre cultura e aprendemos a falar português de forma correta e elegante - o equilíbrio perfeito. Obrigada, Bruno! Até breve!

Let me tell you Bruno is great. He’s cool and makes you feel at ease from the very beginning. Plus, he has a wealth of knowledge and is fluent in both Spanish and English. I feel like with his teaching along with my dedication to Portuguese we will have a complete conversation speaking it one day. That’s my dream!
