About Me

Olá! Hi!
My name is Manuel and I am from Portugal.
I'm an experienced PLE teacher (PLE - Português como Língua Estrangeira - Portuguese as a Foreign Language)
I have a Bachelors Degree in "Fundamentals and Methodologies of Education" and more than 15 years of experience in the educational field.
I speak Spanish and English fluently.Me as a Teacher
My students often say that I am patient, friendly and at the same time always focused on helping the student to improve.
I adapt the lessons and teaching methods according to the learning style, goals and needs of each student.
I take my job very seriously, so I do my best to help each student make significant progress.
I know that learning a language can be very challenging, so I try to make the process of learning very interactive, fun and interesting.My lessons & teaching style
We are going to work on the 4 skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking.
All the lessons will have a focus on your speaking skills to help you improve your fluency and confidence.
Examples of some lesson plans:
1-Structured Course of European Portuguese (A1-C2)
2-Conversational lessons (B2-C2)
3-Portuguese for travelers (A1-A2)
4-Grammar and language structure: (A1-C2)
5-Test Preparation for your Portuguese Certificates (CIPLE; DEPLE e DIPLE)
If you have other goals, you can send me a message or let me know about them in our first lesson.
After each lesson, I will send you some notes to review and homework (if you want 😁)

I love my lessons with Manuel. He always gauges the material perfectly and I know that he does a lot of preparation for my lessons (all lessons I’m sure). The material is interesting and there is always a great mix of conversation, listening, grammar etc. So happy to have hooked up with him for lessons

Manuel is a brilliant teacher. I have learnt so much in a short period of time. He has a gentle, positive manner, and incredibly patient which is perfect for me. I feel I am making great progress. Obrigado Manuel.

Today's lesson we reviewed an exercise I had done in TPC. We also talked about different uses of fazer and went through questions I had from my studying.
We talked about future topics and agreed TPC on a more specific area in order to practice pretérite perfeito and pretérite imperfeito.

Manuel is an excellent teacher. From knowing nothing, I had 2/3 lessons over a week for about 6 weeks before visiting Portugal and I was amazed how far he got me. He has a structured program that I really like but with cultural additions around music and food which are great fun and good preparation for visiting the country.
