Paola Machado Malta

I had an amazing first class with Paola. Without me asking she was writing words for me in the chat for me to look at. If I need a correction she would type to help. Very energetic. Very focused on me. She wanted to find the style class that I like. She presented me with many options. Very prepared. Just a very interesting person to have a conversation with. It felt like a short class 45 minutes.

I highly recommend Paola. She’s an exceptional teacher. I really appreciate that she’s always punctual and respectful during our lessons. She never interrupts me while I’m speaking, instead, she lets me finish and then gently corrects me, which helps me learn without feeling discouraged. Paola also uses images to illustrate new topics, especially when she knows they might be challenging. Her thoughtful approach has made a big difference in my learning, and I’ve improved so much thanks to her guidance.

I can say many excellent things about Professora Paola. She is an excellent conversationalist - which is my specific goal. She can take a topic and respond with thoughtful questions relevant to what I wish to communicate. The conversation is interesting and enjoyable which makes learning easier and more effective. She also is learning other foreign languages. This gives her valuable insights for us students on how to make her lessons effective. I know, I am a foreign language teacher also. I really appreciate her talents and skills in teaching Portuguese. Try a lesson with her today - you will be pleased to have her guidance in learning Portuguese!

I am beginning to work on my spontaneous conversation skills. Sometimes I do not know the word or how to express my self or I mix words from other languages. Professora Paola can maintain the conversation while writing down suggestions for improvement and correction. These notes are very helpful for further studies. She makes thoughtful and helpful suggestions on how I can improve my conversation skills. I am very happy with her skills and dedication for helping me!

A profesora e muito boa. Ela explica com paciencia, educacao e sempre com bom humor. Excelente 👌

An amazing second class. Incredible how prepared Paola was. Conversation is so natural with her, like your talking to your best friend enjoying a cup of coffee. She writes so many things down for me to review and to help me as im talking. She’s an extremely happy person.
