I know Portuguese is very often difficult, frustrating and even cruel. But you can learn it!

I live near Porto and have several decades of experience speaking Portuguese as a native. I am a translator. I have translated lots of different books in different genres for the last 20 years and, when I'm not writing things of my own, that's what I'll be doing.

Another excellent lesson with Renato. He is very good at adapting his lessons to his student's language ability level. He is always ready to change the original subject of our lesson in order to answer upcoming questions relating to different things. I very much appreciate this flexibility which suits my rather intuitive learning style. In addition, Renato is very patient, motivating and friendly.

I really enjoyed talking with Renato. It was my first lesson with him but he made me feel comfortable and confident to speak (almost) entirely in Portuguese. He spoke clearly and quickly understood my level. I know that my Portuguese will improve quickly during these conversations.

Renato has identified listening comprehension as my weakest area and focuses the lessons on it. He devises creative ways to teach this in our lessons. This is helping me a lot to learn Portuguese and is exactly what I need right now. I have noticed that as my listening comprehension slowly improves, so does my speaking ability. I am grateful for Renato's good humour and patience.

I enjoyed the trial lesson with Renato. He encouraged me to talk...and helped me when I could not find the words. Thank you.

My initial lesson was to get acquainted and to start on my journey learning conversational Portuguese (European). My instructor moved quickly through basics, but explained them in a way that I could understand and grasp. He answered questions that I had and I will absolutely be scheduling ore lessons with Renato.
