Learn Portuguese in Lagos!

IS THIS YOU? 

“Everyone here speaks English. Why bother?”“I worry I will never learn enough vocabulary to say what I want or to understand native speakers.”“I feel nervous about speaking with real people and making mistakes in front of them."“I’m too old to learn a new language”“I have no talent for languages”

If you live in or are visiting Lagos, I offer Portuguese lessons in a relaxed, quiet setting, with on-site parking and excellent prices.Portuguese connects you with over 250 million speakers across four continents. It is the sixth most widely spoken language in the world, and it opens doors to careers, culture, and travel.Learn to speak confidently at an A2 level, so you can understand and be understood in daily life, settle into Portugal, and connect with the locals.I believe you can't fully understand a culture without speaking its language, and I help break down cultural barriers by encouraging people to learn each other's languages.

I CAN HELP!

I’ve always loved learning languages because they open doors to real connection. Speaking Portuguese, English, and Russian fluently—and now learning German and Italian—has helped me feel at home wherever I’ve lived, from Asia and Africa to Europe. I understand the excitement and challenges of settling into a new culture, so my lessons are friendly, practical, and supportive.With a Cambridge TEFL certificate and years of experience teaching English and Portuguese to adults from all walks of life, I help students build confidence through conversation and clear grammar guidance. Having lived in New Zealand, Angola, Thailand, and now Portugal, I’m passionate about helping others find their voice in a new language and feel truly connected to the world around them.

LET'S WORK TOGETHER!

I love teaching Portuguese as a foreign language!
