Portuguese Tutor graduated in Brazil, teaching Portuguese Brazilian and European to all levels in England- Josilene Powell

Josie is positive, fun and a great teacher and she is been very helpful and always sends me tests/homework to do which is improving my Portuguese and she is very flexible towards my hectic work schedule.

Josie é uma professora excelente! Josie is able to adapt her teaching style so that both my husband and I can learn together which is an achievement as we both learn very differently! She has made the materials relevant to our interests so that our lessons are interesting and fun. She has also been flexible in our delivery times week to week which has been important and why we took private tuition. Obrigada Josie!

Josie teaches with great enthusiasm. Her lessons have been organised and well structured, but also varied, engaging and taught at a pace that is right for me. My short time with Josie has been a lot of fun, and sparked a real passion to keep on learning.

I began studying with Josie after I had decided to expand my business into Brazil. After two courses of 10 lessons with her, I felt confident enough in my communication skills in Portuguese to go and meet new clients there without an interpreter. I want to thank Josie for her commitment, her professionalism and her ability to make studying fun.

We have been attending lessons with Josie at her house for the last 6 months. The lessons have been enjoyable and good fun and we have made excellent progress. Her methods are imaginative and thoroughly prepared. I would highly recommend Josie to anyone who wants one to one Portuguese lessons.

We found Josie on www.thetutorpages.co.uk. Josie travels to us to provide a weekly lesson. She is always punctual and creates tailor-made lesson plans weekly. She is very creative with the activities that she prepares using a variety of teaching styles and ensures that learning is appropriate to our needs. We have only had 10 lessons so far but we feel that the difference in our understanding is huge. We definitely recommend Josie and look forward to continuing our lessons with her.

I began studying with Josie two years ago and found she was the perfect choice; she is friendly and patient, encouraging and enthusiastic. She is always well prepared so I can practice conversation with her as well as complete the course book. Josie understands student needs well and clearly explains the rules and peculiarities of Portuguese. Her love for Brazil is infectious and the classes are always full of interesting subjects about culture. She has helped me to become really confident in Portuguese.

I found Josie profile online after looking for a Portuguese teacher. I am currently starting my 3rd year with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to learn Portuguese. Her teaching has allowed me to communicate with my girlfriend's family & friends and appreciate the Portuguese/Brazilian cultures. She is extremely friendly and accommodating and as they say “um pouco louca”.

Estou fazendo aulas particulares de português brasileiro com a tutora Josie. Ela é fantástica e coloca muita paixão nos seus ensinamentos e sobre a sua cultura.
Com 10 meses de aula, eu venho progredindo muito nas suas aulas e agora posso formar sentenças e comunicar-me um pouco mais como se fosse um nativo.
Suas aulas são dinâmicas e muito agradáveis.
Eu super recomendo a tutora Josie. Ela é muito profissional e amigável.

I have been studying Portuguese with Josie for 4 months and am enjoying it enormously. Josie has a warm and friendly teaching style and explains new words and grammar in a way that is easy to understand. Her lessons are professionally prepared, and supported with lots of authentic audio/visual materials. I am making excellent progress and would recommend Josie to anyone who would like to benefit from one-to-one tuition in Portuguese.
