João

Classes with João are an excellent investment in my Portuguese learning. It's important to me that lessons have a relaxed atmosphere, that the teacher is interesting to talk to, and, as a bonus, has a great sense of humor. I find all of that in João's lessons. I appreciate that in each lesson, I learn something that cannot be learned from books and feel more and more confident speaking in Portuguese. Thank you, João!

João is an excellent teacher. I always look forward to my lessons with him. He is very calm and patient and leads the conversation easily, asking questions to help me continue to speak. When I make mistakes (frequently!). He is kind and corrects me gently. It is an easygoing-low pressure lesson but I come away learning a lot and the time flies by. I highly recommend João.

João is a great conversation partner and teacher who is able to make any topic interesting to discuss, especially with subjects related to Portugal itself. He also corrects grammatical mistakes that I make and rephrases sentences or recommends new words if I end up saying something in a less than natural way. I look forward to a fun and useful lesson every time I book with him, and I would recommend him to anyone serious about learning European Portuguese.

Learning Portuguese with Joao is fun! You'll have the chance to speak from the very first lesson since he will engage you in entertaining conversations about all kinds of topics. If you don't like grammar-based lessons nor being spoon-fed, he's the perfect tutor for you. He's kind, patient and makes you laugh... Absolutely recommended!

Obrigada!

João is a great listener! He is very supportive, makes the conversations fun, and helps me express whatever I’m trying to say. The classes are very comfortable and easy-going.
