Hey! I’m Felipe, a carioca (Rio native), mathematician, and Machine Learning researcher. I am based in Rio, but as a digital nomad I spend a few months of every year abroad. Oi! Sou Felipe, carioca, matemático e pesquisador de Machine Learning. Eu moro no Rio, mas viajo muito como nômade digital. I speak 4 languages and I am in the process of learning 2 more, so I understand well how challenging it can be to learn from zero and use my own method that brings quick but natural results. Falo 4 idiomas e estou aprendendo mais dois no momento. Por causa da minha paixão por línguas, sei muito bem como é desafiador aprender um idioma do zero, o que me faz entender as dificuldades que meus alunos enfrentam na jornada até a fluência. Tenho cinco anos de experiência como professor e uso um método próprio que te faz evoluir mais rápido e com mais naturalidade, sempre respeitando o seu ritmo.

Felipe is a great teacher! Working with him is easy and feels very natural. He corrects my mistakes in a disciplined way, explains things thoroughly, and asks great questions to keep the conversation flowing. Working with Felipe seems like a very efficient and effective way to improve one's Portuguese--I recommend him to everyone interested in Brazilian Portuguese and Brazil in general!

Felipe is very patient, organized, and friendly. His lessons are well-structured with good balance between lectures on vocab and grammar and conversation putting the concepts that we reviewed into use. He is very knowledgeable on Portuguese grammar, slang, and Brazilian culture. Within a few months, my Portuguese improved so much. Muito obrigada por me ajudar a melhorar meu português. Sinto que agora falo muito melhor desde que comecei minhas aulas com você.

Felipe is a great teacher and is very accommodating to my needs and pace. I feel like I am learning real Portuguese, the way Brazilians actually speak it. At the same time, he is very friendly, fun, kind, and patient. Thank you!

Filipe is a fantastic teacher and a very nice person in general . I always have great fun in our sessions and I learn a lot. He is good at finding my interests and using that to motivate me to learn. He checks in often to make sure I’m getting what I need from the session and he adjusts to fit my needs. Can’t recommend this guy enough!
