Meet the teacher: Andreia
After achieving my bachelor's degree in Languages and Cultures (with a minor in Translation) from the University of Lisbon, I decided to leave the sun behind and move to rainy England. My British experience got loads more colourful when I joined the MLC family in 2021. Here, I started sharing my native tongue and my culture with lovely students who remind me every day why I chose to be a teacher.
Portuguese isn't an easy language to learn (some people even say it sounds like Russian!) but I always make sure my students are comfortable with what we are covering and, most importantly, they are enjoying the ride that is learning a new language! My classes are always full of cultural facts because I truly believe learning the culture is as important as learning the language of a country.
I am a big literature and culture nerd, so reading books and googling facts about different cultures and languages is mostly what I do in my free time. Oh, and sipping a relatively strong coffee, of course!
How?
Flexible. Classes don’t have to be taken on a fixed day and time.
- Non-intensive: 1 or 2 x weekly 60- or 90-minute classes
- Intensive: 2 to 5 hours a day over a 1- to 4-week period
You can take private lessons as either one-to-one or one-to-two tutorials, should you have a partner or friend who’s also interested.
When?
Take private lessons at times to suit you, Monday to Friday 07:30-20:00, Saturday 09:00-14:00. You can cancel and reschedule at 24 hours’ notice.
Why?
One-to-one and one-to-two Russian courses are suitable for:
- General Portuguese, holiday Portuguese
- GCSE or A level Poretuguese tutoring
- Business Portuguese
- Relocation to Portugal or Brazil
- Portuguese holiday home owners
