John H.

5 Portuguese lessons

I appreciate that she has also been pretty flexible with her schedule with me since I can not always meet at the same times or days. My Portuguese has improved so much since taking lessons with her. I will sometimes slip and speak to her in English and she will always remind me to speak in Portuguese. We always communicate in Portuguese via text and she has daily tweets with Portuguese vocab words to study. I would suggest using her if you are looking to learn Portuguese.

Samantha B.

5 Portuguese lessons

Another plus was that as someone who knows Spanish herself, she was able to help me translate what I wanted to say from Spanish to Portuguese in addition to translating from English to Portuguese. Even after only 1 lesson I felt more confident/comfortable speaking in Portuguese. She is also very organized (I sent her the topics I wanted to go over the day before our lesson and I could tell she prepared for the lesson in advance), which I really appreciated.

Ashley W.

102 Portuguese lessons

We are sad to end our time with Waleska but have full confidence that his abilities in Portuguese will help hime with other langugages and we hope he continues to study Portuguese even though it isn't offered in his school. If you have a homeschooler that wants to study Portuguese, Waleska will be great. She's really good with middle schoolers and that as we all know, is a gift! We are so lucky to have found her.
