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. Having explored Brazil’s diverse regions, I bring firsthand insights into its rich linguistic nuances, regional slang, and vibrant traditions. 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? Are you ready to dive into the wonderful world of Portuguese? I’ve studied all sorts of ways to teach this beautiful language to people from different cultures—yes, even the ones who think "Obrigado" is a type of pasta. I’ll help you improve your conversational skills and guide you in pronouncing Portuguese words so naturally that even native speakers might ask if you’re secretly from Rio. I’m fully prepared to teach students of all levels, from advanced speakers to those who’ve mastered saying “Olá” but panic after that. 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 person If you are already comfortable speaking Portuguese, we can discuss your favorite topics or important...

Thiago é um dos melhores professores que já tive no Italki. Há alguns meses, comecei a ter aulas regulares com ele, e graças ao seu método incrível, ele me aproximou muito da língua portuguesa. Eu era um completo iniciante e, em poucos meses, já consigo conversar sobre muitos assuntos. O jeito dele de ensinar é especial. Com ele, não há medo de falar, porque ele tem uma maneira muito empática de conduzir as aulas. Hoje em dia, sinto que estou conversando com um amigo. As aulas nem parecem aulas, e percebo como estou evoluindo constantemente. Com certeza continuarei estudando com ele e já estou ansioso por cada nova aula! Muito obrigado, Thiago.
