Escola Caravela

Queria agradecer a Joana para as aulas tão divertidas e interessantes. Não ter medo de comunicar é o que me faltava muito. Gostava de abordagem e o ambiente da escola em geral. 🥰

It loved the course and Joana! My knowledge of portuguese has greatly improved. I will definitely look into taking another class at the Caravela school!

I am 100% satisfied with the school and this intensive course. Joana is an exceptional teacher—she makes everyone feel comfortable while being strict yet always encouraging. She knows how to motivate her students and pushes us to succeed. Her little sweet treats throughout the day are a great touch to keep our energy and focus up!

The course is perfectly structured and, for once, truly intensive. Thanks to effective learning techniques, such as repetition, the information really sticks in our memory. And that’s not all—Joana provides exercises, a podcast, and other valuable resources to help us keep improving.

Thank you, Joana! Looking forward to coming back in two weeks for the next level!

Joana is such a fun and amazing teacher. I can’t believe how much I learned in only two weeks of the intensive course! I will definitely be attending the next level. Thank you so much for all you do!

Joana is a wonderful, enthusiastic and compassionate teacher. I highly recommend this school. It is easy to get to, the classes are small, and is a wonderful way to connect with others in the community.

Joana is the best teacher

once again very pleased with Joanna’s teaching. kind, patient and very knowledgeable about the subject. :D

I am looking forward to the next level

I am very happy that I have chosen this intensive course. The lessons were engaging, fun, and intense but in the best way possible - those three hours a day went by really fast. The atmosphere that Joana was able to create there was really friendly and relaxed, and I was excited to continue learning. I would strongly recommend continuing on the next courses offered here as the intensive course for beginners is a great start but to get fully started speaking Portuguese confidently, a person needs more practice.

Joana is a great teacher! The classes are fun and varied…and I learned a lot. I’ll be back in January for the next level!

Thank you, Joana, for having such great patience with us! 😂
See you for the next level.

Very great experience. Steep learning curve and good teachers (Joana and Vanessa). I like the small intimate size of the class. It allows space and time for everyone to clarify doubts and to recieve help. My grammar and vocabulary has only improved. Looking forward to A2.

I have learned a lot! Joana is an amazing teacher. I like the way the course is structured. It is the right pace for me to learn. Thank you very much.

Joana is an excellent teacher! This is my 3rd attempt at A1 and it finally made sense to me. No one else had explained it as well as Joana. She is personable, patient and perceptive - all inportant characteristics for a great teacher!

Once again, Joana provided a great environment for learning the language.
Highly recommended course and tutor

I highly recommend Joana as your next and only teacher for learning Portuguese, classes were very dynamic, a lot of grammar and vocabulary and speaking as well, the amount of students in the class is perfect so you have full attention of her and my classmates were all very good students! Nothing better than sharing the same enthusiasm to learn a new language :) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely enjoyed the class with our fabulous teacher Joana. She made learning fun and interesting yet challenging. Look forward continuing with her!!

Tha Caravela school and Mrs Joana have provided me with an excellent update regarding my knowledge of the Portuguese language. The approach, documentation and level of knowledge was excellent to continue being motivated learning the language. Thank you.
