Olá! Hello! 👋
I’m a Computer Science student with a passion for languages and teaching. My goal is to help you learn and practice Portuguese in a fun, dynamic, and engaging way! 🌍✨
Through my travels across Brazil, I’ve experienced firsthand the cultural richness and linguistic diversity of Portuguese. With me, you won’t just learn grammar and vocabulary—you’ll dive into regional expressions, accents, and fascinating cultural insights that make the language truly come alive.
My teaching style is adaptable and personalized: I like to bring real-life situations, pop culture, music, slang, and even a bit of humor to make learning feel natural and enjoyable. Whether you’re a beginner or looMe as a Teacher
I have experience teaching Portuguese in charity courses and as a tutor in both school and university settings. Through these experiences, I’ve worked with students of different backgrounds and proficiency levels, adapting my teaching style to meet their individual needs. My lessons & teaching style
In my classes, I adapt to each student's needs—whether they prefer a casual conversation or a more grammar-focused approach. I’m a good listener and can make lessons both fun and highly productive by discussing a wide range of topics that interest the student. My goal is to create an engaging and comfortable learning environment where learning Portuguese feels natural and enjoyable!My teaching material

Lessons with Gustavo have been a blast! He strikes a great balance between conversation, correction and explanation. I feel like I’m talking with a friend while also improving my Portuguese. My vocabulary has definitely improved. Classes are so fun, that I’m doing more and feel more confident.

Gustavo does a great job keeping up an interesting conversation and providing support when needed. The conversation is easy and natural, even with my occasional struggle to find the right words. With every conversation, I learn new words and a little more about life in Brazil.

Good first lesson. Gustavo was patient and explained slang and informal language clearly. Looking forward to seeing how things develop in future lessons.

A great lesson with Gustavo! He was extremely patient throughout the lesson and was also very supportive, positive, & encouraging. Gustavo also has a great sense of humour and a relaxed demeanour which helps his students feel relaxed. Highly recommend giving Gustavo a try!
