      Licensed Portuguese teacher – 9 years of experience | BR, EU & African variants — Hello! I´m Orlando, a licensed teacher with 9 years of experience. I teach Brazilian, European, and African Portuguese with a practical, light and communicative approach.
      I’ve taught students of all ages and levels. My communicative method focuses on real-life use of Portuguese in social, cultural, academic and professional settings.

      Why choose Orlando S.

      "Three months in and I am now able to hold conversations in slow Portuguese in multiple tenses (although I still get a lot wrong, I am in the right area haha). Orlando is very thorough and down to earth, fun to talk to, keeps sessions interesting. You can see he is passionate about the Portuguese language and instead of remaining on a 'pedestal' as a teacher, he gets to know you on a more friendly level which in my experience helps a lot when learning a language. In this way, studying together with him (as he puts it) is a pleasure. Muito obrigado Orlando!"

My name is Mel, I am a Brazilian living in Argentina, and I am passionate about teaching. I have been a teacher at Preply for a year, where I have been able to continually improve my knowledge and methods. As a foreigner living in another country, and having already visited several different places, I can easily adapt to the cultures of students from different places.

      Why choose Mel S.

      "I haven’t had many classes with Mel yet, but from the very first lesson, I could see that she’s an incredibly kind and positive person. She has such a bright smile, and it’s truly a pleasure to take classes with her. It’s clear that she has excellent teaching skills, and she’s also very intelligent, so you can talk about any topic with her. One thing I really appreciate is that she corrects my mistakes, which I specifically requested. On top of that, she prepares the lessons in advance based on the errors I made in previous classes. This personalized approach makes the learning experience even more valuable. I’m looking forward to continuing classes with her!"
