      +7

      9+ years experience in Language Education (EN + PT) — I was born and raised in Portugal, but currently live in Ireland. I speak 10 languages to various degrees of fluency.
      I believe I can use my own language learning experience to help you achieve your language goals.
      As far as language learning is concerned, my goal is to become fluent in 10 languages in the next 4 to 5 years.

      Why choose Diogo D.

      "I'm currently studying with Diogo and he has been an excellent tutor. Though grammar and pronunciation obviously are important, he also provides cultural background and context. We've chatted about Portuguese popular music so it's not just a dry "onde e a biblioteca?" (where is the library?) kind of lesson you may remember from high-school language classes. Perhaps most impressive is that he not only is fluent in English but he speaks it at the level of a native speaker and in the manner of someone born and raised in the United States, so -- if you are from the U.S. or Canada -- it feels like you're talking to someone you know. I heartily recommend Diogo."

    What are the benefits of Portuguese classes with a native speaker compared to regular Portuguese classes?

    Learning Portuguese with a native speaker offers several advantages compared to regular Portuguese classes. Native speakers have an innate understanding of the language, including its nuances, idioms, and cultural context. This allows them to provide a more authentic learning experience and help students develop a natural-sounding accent. Native speakers can also offer insights into the culture, history, and social context of the language, making the learning process more immersive and engaging. Additionally, learning from a native speaker can improve listening and comprehension skills, as students are exposed to the language as it is commonly spoken.

    What qualifications and experience do Preply native Portuguese tutors have?

    Preply's native Portuguese tutors are highly qualified and experienced in teaching the language. They have a deep understanding of Portuguese grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, as well as the ability to effectively explain and teach these concepts to students. Many of our tutors have degrees in language-related fields, such as Letras or Linguistics, and have undergone specialized training in language teaching methodologies. Additionally, our tutors have extensive experience working with students of all levels and backgrounds, including beginners. They are skilled at adapting their teaching methods to meet the individual needs and learning styles of each student.

    How much do Portuguese classes with a native speaking tutor cost per hour?

    The cost of Portuguese classes with a native speaking tutor on Preply varies depending on the tutor's experience, qualifications, and teaching style. Our tutors price per hour ranges between $3 and $100 dollars per hour, with an average price of $16 per hour. We offer a range of options to suit different budgets and learning needs, ensuring that you can find a tutor who fits within your budget.

    Will I be able to take Portuguese classes with a native speaker who also speaks my own language?

    Yes, on Preply you can find native Portuguese tutors who are also fluent in your own language. This can be particularly beneficial for beginners who may feel more comfortable initially learning the language with the support of a tutor who can explain concepts in their native language. Having a tutor who speaks your language can help bridge any communication gaps and ensure a smoother learning experience. You can easily filter and search for tutors who are fluent in both Portuguese and your native language on our platform.
