“Patricia is an excellent teacher. She is positive, easy to follow, flexible, and very patient. I have greatly increased my skills since I began classes with Patricia. She always gives me very engaging homework that she knows I will have an interest in such as videos on current subjects, song lyrics, and cooking.  There is much time spent on a conversation which I really appreciate and is appropriate for the level that I'm at. I have learned much more about Brazilian Culture since studying with Patricia and feel very confident in speaking Portuguese.  

I highly recommend Patricia. "

"Patricia is the best! I have been taking Portuguese classes from Patricia for three years and it has made a world of difference in my comprehension and speaking.  Lessons are always fun and focus on the interests of the student.  The homework assignments are creative and involve a mixture of traditional assignments, as well as recent videos, articles and music.  Her attention to detail has been extremely helpful for my speaking.  I cannot imagine taking Portuguese from any other teacher and cannot recommend Patricia enough to anyone who wants to learn how to speak this beautiful language."
