Jefferson Gomes

I have been taking Portuguese lessons with Jefferson for several months now. I can't recommend him enough. I started lessons with him with 0 confidence to talk in Portuguese, and now I am able to have a full conversation in Portuguese! Not only did he help me get out of my comfort zone to help me speak, but he also provided enough material and support to build a strong base. Obrigada Jefferson !

I have been taking lessons for quite some time with Jefferson, and I can say that he is an excellent teacher; as well as a kind and genuine human being. His approach as a teacher, that is to say, the methods, and materials that he uses, are carefully selected in accordance to your needs as student, regardless of the level of understanding you already might have in the language. In addition, he is a good listener, one who is willing to collaborate with the learner to bring out the student's interests and precise needs. Accordingly, he will integrate these particular needs and interests that the student has into his lessons, thereby making each lesson with Jefferson all the more enriching. I know I will continue to rely on Jefferson as a cornerstone teacher and guide in my Portuguese learning journey.

Jefferson is truly and incredible teacher! I recently completed my 100th lesson with him and feel so grateful for his expertise and patience. I meet with him 3 times a week and always find myself smiling after the lessons because he finds a way to make learning a new language fun! He’s brilliant as a professor, creative in his materials, and always happy to adjust to my season of life. I can’t recommend him enough. Obrigada, Jefferson!!

I’ve been learning with Jefferson for over a year now. He’s patient, friendly and positive. I truly enjoy my lessons and I feel more confident with my Portuguese. O melhor professor, muita obrigada!

Jefferson is a great Portugues teacher. This makes 81 classes that I have had with Jefferson. Jefferson will tailor classes to your specific needs and goals. The classes are not only productive but also enjoyable. I always look forward to my Portugues lessons

Super great teacher! I want to emphasize speaking in my lessons and Jefferson always is prepared with topics and questions that create great conversations. He also assigns homework that helps me remember things I learned years ago. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a teacher that is well prepared, has a great teaching method and creates an interesting learning environment.
