Tudo bem? Brazilian Portuguese
Natália Hickman - Portuguese Tutoring
I’m Natália, a native Brazilian Portuguese teacher from Rio de Janeiro with several years of experience helping students from around the world communicate with confidence. I specialize in teaching both adults and teenagers, offering personalized lessons that are clear, engaging, and focused on real-life communication.
What sets me apart is my practical approach: I combine grammar, conversation, and culture in a way that makes learning both effective and enjoyable. I use my own books and materials, developed specifically to support students at different levels — whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your fluency.
With a strong foundation in language education and a passion for teaching, I’ve helped many students prepare for travel, connect with family and succeed professionally.
Why learn portuguese with me, Natália Hickman
Unlock a World of Culture, Travel, and Connection
Learning Portuguese opens the door to a rich and vibrant world of culture, travel, and connection. As the official language of Brazil, one of the most dynamic countries in the world, Portuguese is spoken by over 260 million people globally. Whether you’re planning to visit Brazil, work with Brazilian clients, connect with Portuguese-speaking friends or family, or simply explore a new culture, speaking the language will give you deeper access and more meaningful experiences. Brazilian Portuguese, in particular, is known for its warmth, musicality, and expressiveness. By learning it, you’re not just gaining a communication tool—you’re immersing yourself in a way of life full of music, food, joy, and connection. And with the right guidance, learning Portuguese can be fun, practical, and much easier than you think!
