About Me

Hi, I'm Raquel, a Czech-Portuguese language teacher helping beginners connect through languages. I was raised with three languages at home, schooled in the French system, and have lived in four countries — today I speak eight languages and teach Portuguese, English, and French.

I hold a CCP Teaching Certificate and have guided learners from all walks of life: expats in Lisbon, families raising multilingual children, students preparing for language tests, and professionals building confidence in the workplace.

My approach is warm, supportive, and fully tailored to your goals, making learning from scratch fun, interactive, and effective.
