Most common questions.
Can I start as a complete beginner?
Yes. I teach adults from A0 to C1. Tell me about your experience so far, even if you’re starting from the very beginning.
Where do lessons take place?
I’m based in Cascais, Portugal, and teach in person locally and online. Message me to discuss the format that works for you.
How much do lessons cost?
Send me a message about individual or group lessons. I’ll share the current price, available times and lesson terms before you decide.
How long does it take to make progress?
Learning a language takes time and regular practice. As a general guide, reaching the next level can take around a year, though it may be faster or slower depending on your starting point, how often you study and how much you practise between lessons. We’ll set a realistic direction together, and I’ll help you understand what to work on next.
How do payments and cancellations work?
Lessons are 60 minutes and paid monthly in advance. Individual and group lessons have different cancellation arrangements. Read the lesson terms ↗
