Students will receive 2:1 sessions with me covering either material I will provide for them or anything that they need help with from their in-school curriculum. This class is structured and curated to the learner's needs. Daily practice is highly recommended in order to achieve the maximum results in language acquisition.

The 2:1 sessions can also be used to complement any of the classes offered in the Brazilian Portuguese for Young Learners series to help build on speaking, reading, and comprehension. Supplementary resources will be provided to the learner to reinforce successful learning. 

Students will learn through the online format. There is no prior knowledge necessary. Homework assignments will include writing exercises and vocabulary lists. Learner progress will be evaluated through participation. The student will develop skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in Brazilian Portuguese. There will be additional resources provided by the Instructor of the class through Quizlet and Kahoot.
