Hello! I’m Ricardo Sampaio, a medical student and language enthusiast — a Brazilian from Fortaleza, now living in São Paulo. My mission? To make your Portuguese learning feel as natural as a conversation between friends! With me, you combine the useful with the enjoyable: from relaxed everyday dialogues to medical terminology (yes, I can help prepare you for hospitals, for example!). Each class is tailored to your pace and interests — literature, films, music, and more. Want to discover how Portuguese can become part of your daily life? Let’s do it!

The lesson was super comfortable. A supportive environment was fostered where I felt like I could ask questions and make mistakes. I was also informed I could decide how I wanted lessons to go. I’m really grateful!

Ricardo always prepares materials relevant to my studies for each lesson which I find so useful for my language development. He's a kind, patient teacher with a great sense of humour. Thanks Ricardo!

Another very cool class with Ricardo! We didn’t use any structure to guide our conversation because we didn’t need one- we just let the conversation flow while we exchanged ideas and opinions about our different experiencies that we’ve at school and outside of school. I feel like the conversation flowed very well during 60 minutes without any problem- I made my mistakes but Ricardo is very patient and is a great listener- the class space felt free and safe!
