Online Private Portuguese Lessons
One-to-one European Portuguese lessons built entirely around you. Your schedule, your goals, your reason for learning. Taught online by Cláudia Da Silva, wherever you are.
Is this for you?
You are relocating to Portugal or Brazil
Arriving able to communicate makes everything easier: housing, bureaucracy, daily life. Private lessons get you to a working level of European Portuguese before you leave, not after you land.
You need to pass the CIPLE A2 exam
Portuguese citizenship or residency often requires passing the CIPLE A2 language test. Private lessons let you work through the specific areas the exam tests, at the pace the exam demands.
You are a heritage speaker with gaps
You grew up hearing European Portuguese but never learned it formally. Private lessons fill in the grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation you have always sensed were missing.
You work with Angola, Mozambique or Portugal
Portuguese is the working language across southern Africa's most significant trade partners. Speaking it directly changes how you show up in meetings, negotiations and client relationships.
Group classes move too slowly for you
You want to set the pace, ask the questions that matter to you, and stop when something needs more time. Private lessons are built exactly for that.
You are a complete beginner
Starting from zero is not a disadvantage in a private setting. Cláudia builds the foundation correctly from the first session: pronunciation, basic structure, immediate practical vocabulary.
What happens in a lesson
The first session is always about understanding where you are and what you want. Cláudia asks questions; you share your goals. She builds your lesson plan from that conversation.
From there, every lesson has a clear focus. Not wandering through a textbook, but working on exactly what you need: pronunciation, grammar structure, vocabulary for your specific context, or conversational confidence.
Lessons are one hour each, live online via Zoom. You decide the schedule. You book directly with Cláudia.

"I came from a family that spoke Portuguese and thought I had the basics. Cláudia showed me where the gaps were. I now have no problems conversing whilst on business in Mozambique and Angola."
