Hi, I’m Aissa — fluent in English and Spanish, based in Lisbon 🇵🇹. I help learners master Brazilian Portuguese and English with confidence and real progress.
With my structured 3-month program (weekly classes + guided self-study), you’ll build a solid foundation and start speaking naturally — no matter your level!
I’m a passionate language coach with 8+ years of experience teaching languages and 15+ years in education overall.
I hold a postgraduate degree in English Studies, plus certifications in Translation and Teaching Portuguese & English as Second Languages (TEFL).

Me as a Teacher
If you’re learning Business Portuguese, I’ve got you covered! With a Bachelor's in Economics (PUC/SP), an MBA in International Business (FGV/SP), and postgraduate degrees in English Studies and Philosophy, I bring both professional and academic expertise to my lessons.
I’ve worked with:
- the Brazilian Ministry of Economy
- multinational companies
- and the nonprofit sector
Since I’m based in Lisbon, I also bring in real-world insights into European Portuguese, while focusing on Brazilian Portuguese as your foundation.
We’ll also dive into informal language, helping you speak naturally and understand how locals really communicate.

Aissa is a fantastic teacher! She prepared such a thorough, relevant class that was exactly in the area that I work in, which really helped me practice Portuguese for business use. I was impressed with the level of detail she had applied to the class prep and her kind and professional manner. Highly recommend!
