Portuguese Lessons in Cowpens. Amazing Teachers.

I learned all the Portuguese I know from taking many different Portuguese classes at college, including grammar, linguistics, and literature and from living in the "Portuguese House" (at the Foreign Language Student Residence, part of on-campus housing at BYU) for two semesters. I specialize in teaching Portuguese to speakers of Spanish, but I can also teach anyone who wants to learn, even without any other prior language experience. I have grown to love the Portuguese language and the people of the various Portuguese-speaking countries around the world.

I am originally Portuguese!

I am a native speaker of European Portuguese with a decade of experience in teaching Portuguese to everyone, from individuals and their families to large business corporations. I understand the value and the power of one-on-one learning when it comes to language education. Your goals and needs are my main priority and I am committed to help you succeed.

I have been speaking Portuguese for 10 years. I have been to Brazil three times and currently work at the Embassy of Brazil using my Portuguese everyday.

Depending on subject I can help with advanced Portuguese.

I lived in Manaus, Brazil for 2 years as a volunteer proselytizing missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As a result of talking to people all day, every day, I attained full fluency and command of the Portuguese language. I further polished my abilities in the language by taking an advanced Portuguese grammar class and Brazilian history class (both taught exclusively in Portuguese) during my Bachelor's degree at Brigham Young University. I know the language intimately, and can provide the highest quality of instruction to students of the language.
