Brazilian Portuguese Teacher | Portuguese for Expats | CELPE-Bras Preparation
Hello! I’m Jennifer, a native Brazilian Portuguese teacher with over 15 years of experience helping international students achieve real and consistent progress.
I specialize in teaching Portuguese to foreigners, especially:
• European students
• Expatriates and professionals relocating to Brazil
• International families
• Japanese learners
I have worked with expatriate families from multinational companies such as Shell and Anglo American, supporting both adults and children in adapting to life in Brazil.
I also have extensive experience teaching Japanese students. I previously worked at a Japanese institution specialized in Portuguese language education. Many of my students have continued learning with me for several years. I understand the challenges Japanese learners face when learning Portuguese, and I adapt my lessons to make the process smoother and more comfortable.
My lessons are structured and personalized, focusing on:
• Real-life communication and fluency
• Practical grammar with clear explanations
• Cultural understanding for real situations
• CELPE-Bras exam preparation
Teaching approach:
I adapt my lessons to each student’s learning style. My method is especially effective for students who value organization, clarity, and step-by-step progress.
My lessons are especially suitable for students who:
• Prefer clear explanations and organized lessons
• Want to build confidence step by step
• Need support in grammar and conversation
• Are preparing for living or working in Brazil
For children:
I use storytelling, games, songs, and visual activities to create a natural and engaging learning environment.
What you can expect:
• A clear and structured learning plan
• Personalized materials
• Consistent guidance and progress
Trial lesson:
We assess your level, define your goals, and introduce my teaching method.
Important:
• Trial lesson is offered once per student
• Lesson packages are required for continued learning
I work with a limited number of students to ensure high-quality lessons and long-term results.
If you are serious about learning Portuguese and want consistent progress, I would be happy to support you on your journey.
