'I have to learn Portuguese for work and Maria is helping me learn the language from scratch. Her tuition is fabulous as she customises the lessons according to my needs. She is very enthusiastic and encouraging. However, she is also strict and makes you work hard enough to guarantee a fair amount of progress every week. As a result, in just two months I went from zero Portuguese knowledge to being able to read short stories and to hold a basic conversation'
Maria Alonso - MBrain
My partner and I have been having Portuguese lessons with Maria for approximately 2 years. Maria is an excellent teacher. She is able to focus and understand our learning needs and ensures each lesson is at the right level to continually develop our language skills.

I highly recommend Maria to anyone wanting to learn or improve their Portuguese.

Both myself and my son are lucky enough to have Maria as a Portuguese teacher. She is highly experienced, passionate about her tuition and a very warm person. My little boy was reluctant to learn Portuguese in the beginning, but Maria won him over with fun and he always comes bounding out of her lessons happy and enthused. I would highly recommend her.

Maria is an excellent Portuguese tutor. She is full of ideas for interesting exercises and provides clear and helpful feedback. She is warm, friendly, responsive and teaches in a way that is enjoyable as well as effective. And she is very patient, which in my case is especially important.
