One-to-one learning, from your first words to advanced conversations
Build your Brazilian Portuguese with live, individual lessons shaped around your level and goals. Whether you want to talk with Brazilian family, feel more comfortable travelling or develop your reading and writing, you can start at any level from A1 to C2.
You practise speaking, listening, reading and writing alongside grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Lessons also explore everyday expressions and the difference between formal and informal language, so you can put what you learn into context.
We use Portuguese as much as possible during lessons and work at a pace that suits your starting point. Already comfortable with the basics and mainly looking for speaking practice? Explore our Brazilian Portuguese conversation course.

Your first lesson is a trial lesson. In this lesson, you will meet Bárbara, your Brazilian teacher, get a better understanding of her teaching method, and find out whether it works for you.
During the lessons, Bárbara will aim to use as much Portuguese as possible so that you get maximum exposure to the language (and, of course, where necessary, she will use resources such as translators and images). Bárbara’s method is communicative; therefore, from the very first lesson—regardless of your level—she will encourage you to speak (for beginners: short, brief, and simple sentences; for intermediate and advanced levels: plenty of interesting conversations tailored to the student’s level).
In every lesson, you will speak, listen, read, and write, with grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation explained in context, always in Brazilian Portuguese—the way people actually speak in Brazil.
You will have access to all the lesson materials and will receive consolidation activities after the lessons if you have time to practise Portuguese outside of class hours.
Speak Brazil is very flexible, and for Bárbara, the teacher, the most important thing is learning Brazilian Portuguese at your own pace, with joy and enjoyment!
Bárbara Sousa is a native Brazilian Portuguese teacher from Belo Horizonte and Speak Brazil’s Director of Studies. She holds a degree in Portuguese and a master’s degree in Linguistic Studies from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG), Brazil.
