I am a Brazilian teacher with 10 years of international experience. I have published two books about language, with a new book coming out soon. My methodology is tailored to your level of fluency but generally focuses on improving listening, reading, and speaking skills. In our classes, we use a variety of didactic materials such as videos, texts, fill-in-the-blank exercises, cartoons, and more. The main goal is to help you experience Brazilian Portuguese culture and life beyond the boundaries of textbooks and apps. I have already helped dozens of students reach fluency, both here on Superprof and elsewhere. So, no matter who you are, your age, or where you're from – you can count on me anytime! :)

All the reviews collected from students are verified by our team. They are therefore reliable and correspond to a real experience with Thiago.
Perfect! He is very helpful and patient!
Perfect! Thiago is a positive and encouraging teacher. His methodology allows for a flexible class that can adapt to the spontaneous interests of his students.
Perfect! Great resource of videos to watch to have a lesson topic. Really people, really situation and it makes it that much easier to immerse myself in the language. Thiago has great material to follow for practice exercises, but we always sidetrack with additional topic because that's easy to know when learning new language. I enjoy my lessons a lot and it helps me to start speaking up more even though with many mistakes. I wish I could do more lessons a week.
Perfect! We discussed a video he had shared with me earlier. Just at the right level and regular everyday Portuguese. Really enjoyed the class and looking forward to the next one.
Perfect! I feel like I have improved so much in my Portuguese! He always comes so prepared to the classes with videos I watch for homework, discussion prompts, practice exercises, and discussion of vocabulary. Every class is well structured and fun and he is always open to questions and suggestions. He is very communicative and responsive.
Perfect! Incorporates different things into each lesson and is patient and helpful!
- Great Classes with MichaelThiago's response :
Perfect! Thiago has been very encouraging and accommodating to the type of learning that I am seeking. Taking time to allow for questions and adaptations within the lesson to teach me more practical and informal ways of speaking. Very fun teacher so far.
- Great Classes with EnriqueThiago's response :
Perfect! been a great teacher. Thiago makes the lessons interactive with slides. He is also patient. 5 stars
- My classes with Josh have been great so farThiago's response :
Perfect! I am studying Portuguese from the USA as my wife and her family are from Brasil. Thiago is a great instructor who has adapted his teaching to my learning style. He is competent and speaks with little to no accent when speaking English. He also sends me videos to watch with text in both English and Portuguese. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a new Portuguese professor.

- Great StudentThiago's response :
Perfect! Thiago has been amazing to have as a teacher. Once he knew what my level was and what my goals were, he put an amazing plan together. He combines his lesson plan with my learning style and areas I am trying to improve in. I have a long way to go, but I feel far more confident after every lesson and am excited to continue working with Thiago!
Perfect! Thiago is such a great instructor and his classes are very helpful. He is organized and has great teaching techniques that make learning Portuguese easy and fun. I would highly recommend Thiago to every level of student.
- Great Classes with NickThiago's response :
Perfect! I really like the methodology that Thiago is using. It has already provided a lot of benefit to me after only 4 training sessions. Focusing on the knowledge gaps that most impact my typical conversations is something that helps a lot to speed up my understanding of Brazilian Portuguese. Besides that, Thiago is a very nice person with solid educational skills, so we are also having some fun during our lessons. I highly recommend him to anyone who is considering learning Brazilian Portuguese!
- Great Classes with Arjen and CorlyThiago's response :
Perfect! Thiago personalizes the classes to my needs and level and focuses on improving my weaknesses. His style and personality make me feel comfortable. After many years trying to find the right professor, I feel lucky to have found him.

- Great class with JeffThiago's response :
Perfect! Very attentive native Brazilian teacher. He will take your language skills to a much higher level. You will love his classes.
- Great class with EduardoThiago's response :
Perfect! Thiago gets right into the lesson & sees where you're at regarding your level of knowledge of the language, and is open to any requests regarding what you may want/need more information on and help with. Provides examples of how Portuguese is different from English (such as popular movie titles and the different words used in them to better translate to a Portuguese-speaking audience), and is providing simple videos to help with comprehension in between meeting sessions/classes. I appreciate the communications we've had so far and am enjoying the lessons!

Thiago is an incredible tutor. He is very patient, understanding, and willing to go above and beyond in helping me learn Portuguese.
I have really enjoyed the lessons so far and look forward to continuing to learn with him.
I highly recommend Thiago :)Thiago has been an engaging instructor. He is always ready to pay attention and cater to what interests you and usually basing the lesson plans on this-- which what makes the class personal, fun, and refreshing. It feels like you are only talking to a friend to freely and openly discuss ideas, biases, notions, concepts, etc. He is kind and takes great passion in social philosophy. I always end up with more learnings and a more expansive understanding of the world whilst having fun. I highly recommend Sir Thiago. Professional yet adaptive and fun. Structured yet not rigid. Incredibly enjoyable yet not whimsical. The best!
Thank you very much. You helped me so much
He is a great teacher. I recommend him, for sure.
