Brazilian Portuguese Made Simple: go from beginner to fluent with lessons tailored to you!
Hello! I’m Débora, but you can call me Debbie 😊
Important things about me:
I am from Brazil and I am based in Brazil
I speak Portuguese and English
10 years of teaching experience
I have a degree in Language and Arts (State University of Feira de Santana) and Interior Design (University of Salvador)
I have a specialization in Psychopedagogy (Visconde de Cairu Foundation)
I have some certifications:
1. Making Thinking Visible: building understanding through critical and creative thinking (Harvard University - 2013)
2. The Opportunity of Bilingualism (Harvard University - 2017)
3. Introduction to Creativity in Language Teaching: using visuals in language classroom (University of Minnesota - 2021)
4. Learner Feedback for Language Growth (University of Minnesota - 2022)
Important things about my methodology:
- Student-centered learning approach (the lessons are 100% personalized based on student’s needs, goals, pace and learning style)
- Project Based Learning approach (students build something related to the topic we are studying to show they understood it and present it to me in portuguese, of course 🙂)
- Fun classes (recipes, songs, games, karaoke, workshops etc...)
- For beginner students, I like to start from the basics (useful expressions, alphabet, numbers, question words, most common nouns, verbs, adverbs & adjectives, prepositions etc to make them able to build sentences and communicate)
- For upper intermediate and advanced students I like to teach language through content (we can talk about a variety of topics and learn grammar at the same time)
You will improve all four skills: reading, writing, listening and speaking
I teach:
- Literacy in Portuguese for Kids
- Portuguese for Travels
- Portuguese from Zero to Hero 🙂
- Conversational Portuguese
- Portuguese Grammar
- Pronunciation Tips
- Portuguese Slangs
- Exam Preparatory Course (CELPE - BRAS)

Portuguese language and culture lessons with a native speakerThe wonderful Portuguese adventure!
Advantages of learning a new language:
Learning a new language is fun. But what I’m (and you should be) after is not bilingualism but instead biculturalism. We think by aid of words. Therefore language shapes thought. In part this is because working in a second language slows down the thinking. No wonder people feel different when speaking a second language. And no wonder they feel looser, more spontaneous, perhaps more assertive or funnier or blunter.
Studies show that being able to speak another language is generally linked to a more flexible brain, developing the brain’s ability to plan and prioritize. Also it betters our defenses against dementia in old age.
Advantages of learning Portuguese:
• 250 million native speakers worldwide
• 5th most common language in the world
• It has been an official language since 1297
• It’s usage is spread over 4 continents (Europe, South America, Africa, Asia)
Now business,
The pace, duration, frequency and schedule of the classes is totally up to the student to decide. The best case scenario is 1-2x per week depending on both parties availability.
Focus on diverse subjects is possible, for example, grammar, diction, reading comprehension, written production, conversational skills.
In case the student has no specific requests, together we will follow the guidelines of a trusted book (that I myself bring to the class and the student doesn’t need to acquire).
In every class the student will be directly influenced by worldwide Portuguese culture ( music, history, geography).
Periodically we will evaluate how the classes are evolving so as to rapidly and effectively shift focus to where it is needed.

Portuguese Language and Brazilian Culture: Learn with fun!Do you want to speak Portuguese and get closer to the Brazilian culture in a fun and dynamic way? Well, I am a Brazilian who can show you our History, our art, customs and the great diversity of Brazilian Portuguese accents, as if you were on a virtual trip to Brazil. I have been teaching my language to people of different levels and objectives for more than two years, which gave me great experience in adapting my classes according to the needs of each student. Thus, in addition to traditional grammar, I use movies, songs, literature and other resources according to the profile of each student. In Brazil, I worked in schools and science museums, where I gained practice teaching children, youth, and adults. I also worked writing and reviewing articles for magazines, so I have great experience with the written Portuguese language. I offer online classes via webcam or face-to-face (in Granada, Spain) so that the student can choose the way that suits him best.
