Oi! I’m Juliana.
But you can call me Ju.

I’m Brazilian, from the countryside of São Paulo. I have a degree in Modern Languages – Portuguese and English, and a post-graduate degree in English Translation.
But before becoming a teacher, I had a completely different life: I was a flight attendant for seven years. I connected with cultures, and saw how powerful it is to learn a new language. It changed my life.
Now, I teach Portuguese to help others transform theirs too.
I’ve been teaching students from all over the world for over three years. I teach with patience, empathy, and honesty. I know how it feels to learn a new language, the fear of making mistakes, the frustration, the insecurity.
That’s why I created this website.
Here you’ll find simple, honest, and practical resources to learn real Brazilian Portuguese. The way we actually speak, with all the culture, warmth, and everyday expressions that make the language come alive.
I hope this space helps you feel more confident, supported, and connected on your journey.
Welcome to my world. It’s a joy to have you here!
