Here’s what my clients say…
"Susana makes learning Portuguese a remarkable experience. Her lessons are very effective and fun at the same time. Her love for Portugal and the interest in the different cultures make the lessons often jump to interesting conversations that broaden the language knowledge & strengthen the confidence of the students. I have already received my A2 certificate, and I couldn’t imagine doing it in less than a year without her help."
"I want to thank you for our Portugese lessons in Dubai! have learnt a lot and now are practising my lessons! Not only did i learn about the language but also felt the saudade of wanting to live in Portugal! I live in Portugal now and can have a small conversation. I felt that mrs. Castro wanted me to learn Portugese and the small test showed i did. Thank you again for unforgettable learn and progress time!"
"When I arrived in Dubai I was looking for a Portuguese teacher. The first time I met Susana, I just knew she was the right teacher for me. She is patient and kind. She has a great method which makes it interesting and you are learning so much more than you think you are. I would highly recommend Susana to anyone wanting to learn Portuguese."
"I started taking Portuguese classes with Susana in September 2018. Over the passed year my reading and writing skills as well as pronunciation and communication skills have flourished. Susana is a fantastic teacher. Her style of teaching and adapting to her students pace makes learning a new language super enjoyable. What I appreciate most is her patients and the method in which she teaches. The material and course work is easy to understand and is set at your own pace. Susana came highly recommended from one of my colleagues, the 1 on 1 lessons really allow full focus to each of her students. Susana brings in day to day life into the lessons which helps put the material into perspective. I can highly recommend Susana and despite the nervousness of learning a new language, Susana will guide you and set you up for success with your new language."
"From our first lesson together, i felt a very good connection with Susana. She made everything seem very comfortable and easy. Our lessons were fun, engaging and most importantly they taught me so much more than just the Portuguese language. I learnt about the culture, the people and the beautiful country that is Portugal. We had conversations about our life, our families and our interests. It was like talking to a friend, which makes it so much easier. She helped me reach my goal and I couldn’t be more grateful. Obrigada por tudo Susana"
"It is not easy to give a brief feedback about learning Portuguese with Susana, there is so much to share of the awesome experience learning Portuguese with her. From where do I start? Lets start from the day we met! Susana transmits a happy energy with her big smile once you meet her. She makes you feel super comfortable from day one (all in Portuguese, yup, you heard it here first!). Susana has a rule in her class, we all speak Portuguese, and for some reason you start believing that you do. She speaks slowly at a pace that will make you understand what she is saying in Portuguese even if you never attempted to do so. Her classes are so relevant to you, conversational, informative and educational. During the classes we would speak about who we are, our backgrounds, family, how was our day, our weekend, the activities we did, the food we ate, etc. Susana is very supportive and patient, she conducts the class following your learning pace. She always encourages you to hold a conversation in Portuguese, even if it starts with just a word, or a question, or attempting to build a full sentence. The learning rhythm is progressive, she follows a very structured program (for the nerds out there!). In a one hour or 90 minutes class you learn a lot, and you progress so well (specially if you do your homework and study for your tests!). Susana always comes with new tools to help you learn better and faster (like apps, books, songs, etc.). A very important part is that you learn a lot about the Portuguese culture and Portugal during the classes, Susana always shares information about Portugal that helps you understand the culture and what to expect if you intend to move to Portugal! If you want to truly learn Portuguese (proficient spoken and written), enjoy the journey, and have a supportive teacher who will guide you along the way, Susana is the best teacher you can ever have! She is one of those childhood teachers that you never forget growing up. Obrigada Susana por tudo, muitas saudades!"
"Estou muito feliz por você ter conseguido realizar o seu sonho. Sinto que sua iniciativa será muito bem sucedida, e ao mesmo tempo lhe desejo muita sorte neste momento e igualmente no futuro desse enorme acontecimento de sua vida. Posso dizer do fundo coração que meu tempo como seu aluno foi extraordinário, e que fez toda a diferença no meu comhecimento tanto na área de português quanto na área da matemática, também sendo a única razão por eu ter passado com êxito minha prova DIPLE. Gostaria de lhe agradecer mais uma vez por tudo e o desejar uma vez mais boa sorte com seu novo negócio."
