My name is Cristina Leifer. I am a teacher, actress and theater director. PhD in Performing Arts from the Federal University of Bahia, graduated in Psychology from Ufba and specialist in Psychoanalytic Theory from the Brazilian School of Psychoanalysis and the Bahia School of Medicine. In June 2014 I received from the University of South Florida [USA] the "Certificate of Achievement / Best Advanced Portuguese Instructor" within the program "Afro / Brazilian Culture & Society". I worked as a Portuguese teacher for foreigners at the University of South Florida / Afro / Brazilian Culture and Society [USA] and the University of Virginia [USA], hired by Brazil Cultural. Currently coordinates the Cenacle / Nucleus of Theater Studies and acts as a cultural partner at BrazilLink / Institute of Language and Culture. He attended workshops with Michael Corbidge, Royal Shakespeare Company's Voice and Text Trainer (England) and Justin Audibert, Artistic Director of the Royal Shakespeare Company (England), Sergey Zemtsov, Director of the Moscow Art Theater (Russia) and Ariane Mnouchkine, director of the Théâtre du Soleil (France).

ô or ó - any difference? Or the same? For me, as a gringo from Switzerland, the two o's were quite the same. Forget it, dear readers, and do that very quickly. Thanks to Cristina's special language course, you will learn the subtle differences of the brazilian-portuguese language and its pronunciation.
Cristina, with her experience as a theater actress, is the best teacher you can imagine to grasp the fine differences. Her method, with vocal trainings like actors do, will help you to reach a new level of speaking and understanding. Apart from that, she is a wonderful teacher with a lot of spirits. When you have the chance to go to Salvador, don't hesitate taking lessons with Cristina. She will open the world of Salvador and Bahia for you, a world unseen for most tourists. I made this experience in 2008, many years ago, but still think back of my time in Salvador and the lessons of Cristina. Through her classes and trainings, I entered a whole new world and I fell in love with the culture. Not to forget, thanks to her I made the CELPE years later and I became a vivid lover of Brazilian literature.

SwitzerlandAtriz com doutorado em estudos de teatro e embaixadora inoficial da cultura brasileira, Cristina tem sido minha professora de português (por Skype) nos últimos dois anos, preparando-me para o Celpe-Bras e explorando a literatura e a música brasileira comigo. A highly recommended, versatile teacher of Portuguese, especially for those who are - like me - fascinated by all things (luso-)Brazilian! (Steffen, 2022)
I learned Portuguese with Cristina five years ago, it was a great experience to have her as a teacher. When she heard that I like to play volleyball she even organized an evening of playing beachvolleyball :-). Thanks for a wonderful time!
She's the real deal - I have worked with "Profe Cris" for 4 years as students of mine from the University of Minnesota have studied Portuguese with her for 3 weeks at the start of their semester in the country. Some have continued on with her on-line. She has also been available to develop cultural classes for students. She's awesome - knows the grammar and the language teaching, but beyond that - creates the sort of emotional connection with students that makes them WANT to learn. We know that relationship is the most important thing when learning anything, and it is Cristina's passion and interest in many areas of life that allow her to bring novelty and energy to her lessons. And I believe her background in theater makes her a more interesting presenter, which becomes even more important in on-line classes. So you'll get all the language and grammar you need, plus healthy doses of Brazilian culture as well as current events and the arts scene from a master teacher. No need to look further!
A pró Cristina,
antes de ser uma ótima professora, tem uma atitude de amiga.
A primeira atenção dela è entender o real objetivo do estudante.
Ela sabe escutar a tua necessidade de acordo com a tua proveniência de estudante estrangeiro.
Assim todo mundo se sente a vontade…e os progressos são muitos. Se você ficar constante no estudo, aos poucos todo mundo vai te parabenizar pelas melhoras do teu português.
Sobretudo os aprofundamentos na fonética vão te ajudar para melhorar a pronúncia dos acentos mais complexos da língua portuguesa.
Além disso Cristina sabe te introduzir nas gírias baianas, até você entender, sem dever perguntar sempre: “pode repetir por favor?”.
A explicação de Cristina sobre a ligação entre a língua e a história portuguesa vão te ajudar a compreender realmente o significado das expressões mais difíceis ou das mais utilizadas.
Resumindo: Cristina è o seu passaporte pela língua portuguesa dessa nossa Bahia, desse nosso Brasil,
de qualquer parte do mundo você venha!!!

Tive o prazer de ser aluna de Cristina durante minha estadia em Salvador. Ela pensou muito em mim, não apenas sobre a língua, mas também sobre a cultura. Aprendi muito sobre história, cultura e tradições da Bahia. Também focamos muito na pronúncia, o que me ajudou muito. Não foi tão fácil, mas ela sempre foi muito paciente e dedicada.
Cris não é apenas uma professora incrível, mas também uma boa amiga.Cristina was one of my profesoras de Português when I studied for one month at Brazil-Link in Salvador de Bahia. Cristina was a very positive teacher who made the student feel at ease in her presence. She used a variety of methodologies in her teaching in order to help her students understand the concept. Cristina incorporated culture and current events into her teaching which made the students relevant to her students.
Ela e verdadeiro super profe porque ela tem bom energia ,humor ,qualidade e muito carinho!!! Adoro sua aula aprendi muito y rei muito com ela não somente como profe, como uma pessoa amo elaaaa️️️️
Cristina é uma professora muito apaixonada. Cristina ensina a idioma de Português pelo as conexões profundo com os alunos. Ela faça um conexão entre arte, teatro e a idioma que nascer o sementes de paixão de português pelo os alunos.
I have visited Brazil several times and decided that I needed to learn Portuguese. I was using Duolingo and Babbel with little success. An American friend who lives in Salvador recommended Brazillink. When I visited the school, I met Cristina, Grace and Anna. My classes were at school and online when I returned home. Cristina was the absolute best. Very patient, explained the history of Salvador and very flexible with the scheduling of classes. She even helped me find an apartment for my next visit to Salvador. She is very friendly and an excellent teacher. I highly recommend Cristina and Brazillink.
Tive aulas de português com Cristina durante um mês todas as manhãs. E um professor muito educativo, aberto sobre o conteúdo dos cursos e muito agradável. Eu recomendo com 100%!
Cristina é maravilhosa. Uma forma leve e divertida de ensinar! É muita contribuição pra quem quer aprender a língua portuguesa!
