I come from the beautiful city of Curitiba 🇧🇷 I have a passion for exploring different cultures and languages, and I enjoy travelling to broaden my horizons. 🌍 Animals hold a special place in my heart 🐾, and I'm surrounded by them on a farm, including cats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, and geese. 🚜 Apart from teaching, I also write books and blogs to help Brazilian Portuguese learners. 📖 Teaching on Italki allows me to share my knowledge, connect with students from all over the world, and foster meaningful exchanges. 🌐

Australian student learning Portuguese (no experience previously, none at all). Yan is a fantastic teacher, he comes extremely prepared to the lessons and takes on advice with what I want to learn as I’m travelling to Brazil. Yan understands the Aussie accent which is something I thought would be a huge issue with learning. Highly recommend if you are Aussie. I have had 20 lessons (weekly lesson) and feeling very comfortable with traveling to Brazil and using basic communication. Only advice I have would be to try and book 2 lessons a week and put stickers around the house to remind you to say that item. Thanks Yan!

Yan é o melhor professor de idiomas com quem já pratiquei! E uma pessoa incrível. Ele realmente tem talento para criar um ambiente de prática hospitaleiro e descontraído. Com ele, desde a primeira aula, havia a sensação de que falar português não era nada difícil. Ele atende perfeitamente às minhas necessidades de aprendizado de idiomas e, se você não tiver certeza de como desenvolver sua prática, ele tem ótimos materiais, é um ótimo ouvinte e fará você falar. Yan, muito obrigada! Parece que estou conversando com meu melhor amigo. Essa conexão que temos é definitivamente mais do que apenas aulas de português. Abraços, amigo do meu coração!

Yan has a natural gift for teaching, and a warm and encouraging personality to go with it. I felt comfortable and supported from the very beginning, which was important for me given my foundational level. I also found Yan to be very well prepared and structured in his lessons preparation. He has an ideal system for note taking during the lesson, and in doing so preparing homework to study for next time. I'm extremely grateful to have found Yan as my teacher in Portuguese at this early stage in my development, and I'm excited to make this review for posterity, so that when I make my next review after 50-100 lessons, I can confirm the progression I made from my current A1 level! I am convinced that I will have made progress I could only have dreamed of (no pressure, Yan!) I guarantee that you will be delighted with your choice of teacher, if you trust Yan in your language learning journey. Thanks so much once again, I'm very grateful!!
