Hi! I’m Marcela, a Brazilian Portuguese teacher with over 5 years of experience and recently graduated in Medicine. I teach because I truly love learning languages and sharing my own through my experience as a language student. My interests include music, psychoanalysis, health, travel and cultural exchange.
Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Portuguese to foreigners for five years, always focusing on real communication. I speak English and Spanish fluently and understand a bit of German, which helps me anticipate common learning difficulties and explain Portuguese in a clearer, more relatable way.
My lessons & teaching style
I use support materials, but my classes are always adapted to each student’s interests, goals and pace. I like bringing texts, real-life examples and Brazilian culture into lessons, teaching Portuguese as it’s actually spoken in daily life, beyond textbooks.

Marcela es una profe sensacional, hoy aprendí un montón de falsos amigos entre el español y el portugués, además de otras expresiones idiomáticas!

If you need someone intelligent, thoughtful, and interesting to learn with, you should try a class with Marcela. She's lovely.
