"A great place to study, Fernanda is a great teacher and has a vast experience in different countries. I would definitely recommend to anyone!"

Guilherme from Brazil (currently living in the United States)

 "Fernanda is a wonderful teacher. I took Portuguese lessons with her for nearly 2 years in New York City. She helped me with my vocabulary and grammar, and my conversational Portuguese improved greatly. Also, what I particularly like was that Fernanda customised our classes to my interests (architecture and design) so the reading and conversations focused on key vocabulary that I needed to know."

Liz from The United States (currently living in Dubai) 

"After recognizing a passion that I had for Brazil I had met Fernanda. She help me to attain a high level of the Portuguese language which enabled me to communicate with all Brazilian people. Her teaching methods are up-to-date and she was always patient when teaching. She help me reach my ambitions and enabled me to create another life with wonderful people. Thank you so much Fernanda for helping me."

John from The United States

"Fernanda ist eine sehr geduldige und emphatische Lehrerin. Mit einer Einführungsstunde schaut sie sich den aktuellen Stand an und bespricht gemeinsam, wie es weiter gehen soll. Für Wünsche und Frage ist sie stets offen und auch sehr flexibel bei der Termingestaltung. Kann ich auf jeden Fall weiter empfehlen."

"Fernanda is a very patient teacher who shows a lot of empathy towards her students. During the trial lesson she makes an evaluation of her students' current level. Then she plans the lessons based on the students' needs and goals. When I have questions, she is always open to answer them. She is very flexible in terms of scheduling classes. I highly recommend Fernanda ."

"Ich schätze an Fernanda ihre Professionalität und ihre gleichzeitig herzliche und offene Art des Unterrichts. Bezüglich der Themen des Unterrichts ist sie extrem flexibel und aufmerksam bezüglich meiner Bedürfnisse. Gleichzeitig sieht sie sehr gut, was nötig ist und motiviert mich zum eigenen Lernen. Flexibel ist sie auch bezüglich des Timings der Stunden und gelegentlich ist auch Unterricht per Skype möglich , wenn es anders nicht geht. Ich gehe immer sehr froh zu ihr und verlasse sie mit noch besserer Laune."

"I appreciate Fernanda's professionalism and at the same time her warmth and open manner during the classes. In regard to the lessons' topics, she is extremely flexible and attentive to my needs. She has a good sense of judgment in relation to what is important and motivates me to study. Additionally, she is flexible in terms of scheduling our classes. When I can't take my class in person, I take online classes via Skype. I always enjoy going to my lessons  and when I leave I am even in a better mood."

"Fernanda ist flexibel, zuverlässig, geduldig und verfügt über eine gute Herangehensweise bei der Vermittlung des Brasilianischen Portugiesisch. Wir haben praktisch bei "Null" begonnen, und dennoch konnte ich dank intensiver Arbeit nach wenigen Wochen die erworbenen Kenntnisse in Brasilien anwenden. Ich kann den Face-To-Face Unterricht empfehlen. Herzlichen Dank für diese wichtige Unterstützung!"

"Fernanda is flexible, reliable, patient and available in terms of approaching what is necessary to learn Brazilian Portuguese. We have began from "Zero," however after a few weeks, upon taking intensive classes, I could start speaking Brazilian Portuguese. I can recommend the Face-to-Face classes. Thank you very much for your help and support!"

Matthias from Germany 

"Fernanda was of great help to me. She is a really nice person who makes you feel very comfortable when learning with her. Fernanda gave me a lot of confidence with her feedback, and is very precise and accurate when explaining gramatical concepts in the language. She has a very relaxed and positive attitude towards teaching, and could be beneficial to any other individual who is looking to learn or improve language skills."

Ara from Armenia (currently living in Brazil) 

"Fernanda is a superb teacher with an innate sense, not just of the language you are learning (Portuguese in my case), but of Language itself. Like a builder, she creates a learning architecture with such a secure foundation that the student can build upon it in absolute confidence. The vernacular fashion of any language naturally shifts with the times, but what Fernanda offers is, like a well built house, an unshakeable foundation easily accommodating the times, and with the firm structure beneath which allows you to build upon it as far as your curiosity leads you. In the end, you will proudly own the language like it’s your new home, and you will really live in it."

Todd from New York City 

"Ich lerne aus privaten Gründen seit etwa neun Monaten brasilianisches portugiesisch. Seit gut 4 Monaten nehme ich regelmässig (etwa 2 Stunden pro Woche) Unterricht bei Fernanda. Ich kann Fernanda jedem / jeder sprachinteressierten Schüler Schülerin zu 100% empfehlen der / die wirklich ernsthaftes Interesse hat die Sprache zu lernen. Fernanda gestaltet den Unterricht sehr unterhaltsam aber dennoch höchst professionell. Sie geht stets auf Wünsche / Fragen ein, verliert dabei aber nie den roten Faden ihres Unterrichts. Und durch ihre charmante, freundliche und sympathische Art motiviert sie mich stets aufs Neue auch nach einem langen Arbeitstag Skype einzuschalten und gemeinsam zu lernen. Ich habe es ihr zu verdanken dass ich mich heute mit mener „Wahlverwandtschaft“ in Brasilien verständigen kann. Und nicht zuletzt hat sie mich sicher dadurch dass sie in beiden Kulturen zuhause ist durch manchen Tip vor dem ein oder anderen typisch europäischem Fauxpas in Brasilien bewahrt. Danke Fernanda."

"I have been learning Brazilian Portuguese for personal reasons for a few months. I have been taking lessons with Fernanda quite regularly (about 2 hours per week) for about 4 months. I can highly recommend her to anyone really interested in learning Portuguese. Fernanda's classes are entertaining and effective. She answers my questions without losing track of the class. 
After a long day at work, I am highly motivated to take my online classes via Skype with Fernanda, due to her nice and friendly  manner.  Thanks to the classes, I am able to communicate with my Brazilian relatives. Last but not least, the fact that Fernanda is aware of how the German and Brazilian cultures work, I am able to avoid making cultural mistakes during my stay in Brazil. 
Thank you Fernanda."
