Oi! I’m Haroldo — a Brazilian Portuguese/English teacher, Systems Analyst, and musician. My lessons blend tech logic, musical rhythm, and cultural flair!

Here I will help you:
➡️ Talk with your family and friends abroad
➡️ Go from self-teaching apps to using the language in real life

✔️ A tailored lesson plan to help you reach your goals
✔️ Grammar structures breakdown without losing the flow of the lesson
✔️ …and way more!

Haroldo is a wonderful teacher. He has lots of interesting ideas for conversation and adds just the right amount of error correction, vocabulary instruction and grammar knowledge without obstructing the flow of the conversation. This is the best way to learn another language.

Haroldo is an outstanding teacher!
I've been learning Portuguese with Haroldo for almost a year now. The lessons never get boring and the conversations feel very natural, like talking to a friend. Haroldo is super flexible with the classes and has very europe-friendly hours, which makes it super easy to find lesson times that suit your schedule.
I highly recommend Haroldo to anyone wanting to learn or improve Portuguese or English!

I've been working with Haroldo for 25 classes now and he's been better than I could have imagined. He has a very structured process but your story and life is a very important part of that structure. An absolute game changer in my learning progress.
