Bio:
Hello! My name is Daniel, I am from Rio de Janeiro, and I teach Brazilian Portuguese to learners with different levels and goals. With 4 years of experience teaching in person and online, I work with beginners, conversational learners, business students, and exam-focused students, using structured lessons that turn grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation into active communication.
My teaching methodology:
- Students should expect structured, interactive, and personalized classes, planned according to their level, objectives, difficulties, and interests. In the first lessons, I identify what each learner already knows, what needs improvement, and what kind of Portuguese they are most likely to use, so that every class has a clear purpose and remains connected to their actual goals.
- My classes may include conversation practice, pronunciation work, grammar explanations, vocabulary building, reading activities, listening exercises, short texts, videos, audio materials, role-plays, writing tasks, and targeted correction. I also use repetition and guided practice when necessary, especially with beginners, because these tools help students internalize structures and gain confidence before moving into freer communication.
- For conversation-focused learners, classes are based on real-life topics, videos, audio materials, and texts, helping them become more natural and spontaneous when speaking Portuguese. For beginners, I focus on clear explanations, essential structures, pronunciation, and useful everyday language, while advanced students work on fluency, accuracy, vocabulary range, cultural nuance, and more precise expression.
- My teaching style is patient, organized, and practical: I want students to understand how Portuguese works, but also to feel able to use it in real communication.
My teaching background:
I have been teaching languages for 4 years, both in person and online. I have taught Portuguese as a second language to students with different proficiency levels, learning styles, and objectives, developing a flexible but structured approach.
I have worked with complete beginners, conversation-focused students, business learners, and those preparing for specific exams or practical goals. With professional students, I adapt lessons to their roles, industries, and communication needs, including meetings, presentations, and emails.
I also prepare students for Celpe-Bras using past exams, targeted practice, and materials developed by me. For those interested in culture and literature, I offer guided reading and discussion of Brazilian authors such as Machado de Assis, Aluísio Azevedo, and Paulo Coelho.
My background outside of teaching:
Outside language teaching, I hold bachelor’s degrees in Economics and International Relations, a master’s degree in Economics, and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Economics.
