Portuguese Tutoring FAQ
Learning a foreign language is always a challenge, and if you want to learn Portuguese, you have an even larger hurdle to scale because it's not a language that's commonly spoken. Practicing might be difficult, unless you're working with a Portuguese tutor. When you're looking for such a tutor, be sure to start your search with us, at Varsity Tutors. We're here to help you connect with some Portuguese tutoring that can give you the practice you need, whether you're planning a trip to Portugal or taking a class at school.
Portuguese is actually an official language in 10 countries across the Iberian region and in Africa, and more than 250 million people speak it. However, unless you live in one of those countries, you'll have a hard time striking up a conversation to practice your vocab and your listening skills. A Portuguese tutor can provide some partnership, and maybe even offer some interesting facts about where and when the language is spoken.
Portuguese tutoring can thoroughly cover the following topics and concepts:
Learning the Portuguese alphabet.
Portuguese grammar and sentence structure.
Conjugating Portuguese verbs.
Pronouncing Portuguese words.
Reading, writing, and understanding the language.
Learning the culture and norms of Portugal, Brazil, and other Portuguese-speaking nations.
Many Portuguese language students begin taking a language class in college or, if it's offered, high school. While it's a western romance language that's not too dissimilar to Spanish, Italian, Romanian, and French, it certainly has its own nuances. You can benefit from a Portuguese tutor whether you're a beginner or nearing a level of fluency. Tutoring can help you become more comfortable speaking the language, and you may find you're able to move ahead in your class studies.
If you're looking for a private tutor because you want to learn the language in order to travel or for work, you can study at your own accelerated pace.
