Hello my name is Lucia and I am a native Italian speaker. I have a degree as an interpreter for English and French so I know how hard it may be... to learn a foreign language. I work as a free-lance interpreter and private English and French teacher. I have a strong passion for languages which I have been studying for many years. I am studying Spanish now and always trying to improve my English and French knowledge. I am a friendly person and my lessons mainly focus on conversation. As a teacher I am very patient and I always propose tailor-made lessons with respect to your needs. I am really enthusiastic about being a teacher because this activity allows you to share your culture and habits with foreign people. Learning a language is also learning a new culture. Read more

Hello! My name is Rhuana and I'm from Recife, Brazil. I have a Languages degree (Portuguese and French) from the Universidade Federal de... Pernambuco and I did a postgraduate course in Applied Linguistics to Portuguese Language Teaching in the FAFIRE. I also had the opportunity to study Didactics for Languages for six months in the Université Sorbonne Nouvelle, in Paris. Since 2011, I work as a teacher of Portuguese (as first and foreign language) and French and I’ve had experiences in schools, language courses, online lessons… So I have a large experience teaching both of them and I had the opportunity to teach students with different levels, profiles and goals. My lessons are dynamic, fun and prepared according to the student's objective and interests. Also, I believe that sociocultural aspects are extremely important in the process of learning a language, since it is, above all, social. Therefore, these aspects will be always present in our lessons. I love literature, cinema, TV series, music… I also love to travel, to know new cultures, new languages… Portuguese is my first language, but I also speak French, English and a bit of Spanish. If you want to learn Brazilian Portuguese, to improve your skills in this language or if you are interested in Brazilian culture, I can help you. But if you are looking for a French teacher, I am also prepared to help you achieve your goals. I hope to meet you soon! Read more
