Hugo Carioca

Hugo is an awesome teacher whose lessons are a lot of fun. He encourages me to step out of my comfort zone and uses creative approaches to help my Portuguese sound more natural such as teaching me slang and colloquialisms as well as having me sing along to Brazilian music. Hugo will definitely help you understand Brazilians and improve your communication.

I’m SO glad that I came across Hugo as I was searching for a Portuguese tutor! It was meant to be. I could tell from his profile that he is very dedicated to his students accomplishing their goals. And I was right! Not only is he a great tutor, he has a positive energy and enthusiasm for each class. It has been an enjoyable experience learning Portuguese with Hugo and I will continue my lessons until my trip to Rio de Janeiro. He has helped me a lot with my pronunciation and accent. I really like how he incorporates slang and culture into our lessons. I feel like I have a personalized lesson because Hugo customizes our lessons based on my interests and what I need the most help on. I’m really grateful that I came across his profile and I have confidence that I will become a fluent speaker! :)

Excelente professor, ajudou bastante realmente!

Hugo is the kind of teacher that makes you forget you are studying. Learning Portuguese has become a super fun experience. I recommend Hugo to everyone wanting to learn fast. His optimistic worldview will make your day better and your Portuguese ready for Brazilian adventures. I've been having a lesson couple of times a week now for some months, and I'm still waiting in excitement before every lesson!

O Hugo é o cara mais gentil do mundo

Hugo easily guides our conversation from topic to topic and asks great prompting questions to get me to think and use new vocabulary. I am always learning something new. Really great.
