Olá! I’m Thiago, your dedicated Brazilian Portuguese conversation coach. With a bachelor's degree in Portuguese, I specialize in helping learners achieve natural fluency—whether through mastering verb conjugations, refining pronunciation, or engaging in dynamic discussions about travel, finance, or Brazilian culture.

My approach transforms lessons into engaging, confidence-building experiences where Portuguese becomes second nature. Let’s embark on this language journey together—where every conversation brings you closer to fluency. Ready to start?Me as a Teacher

If you’re looking for a teacher who’s patient, flexible, knowledgeable, and friendly (and who won’t judge you for accidentally calling "feijoada" a salad), I’m your personMy lessons & teaching style

I’ll challenge your skills to help you improve and share insights that go beyond what you typically learn in grammar books or standard classes.
However, if you’re at a beginner level, I will focus on building your vocabulary, teaching basic grammar, and introducing techniques to help you learn faster. I’ll speak slowly and clearly to prepare you for future conver

I enjoyed jumping back into Portuguese with Thiago! He provided me with notes from the lesson as well as homework. I look forward to future lessons as I refresh my conversational skills.
