    I can highly recommend Joel! He is patient, structured, and can particularly convey the feel for a new language as well as the Portuguese culture. The lessons were always a great combination of understanding, vocabulary, speaking, and grammar, and his teaching materials are very varied. He speaks excellent English and German (and other languages), so the explanations were always clear and detailed. A top language teacher!! Show original

    A lesson with Joel flies by. With humor and a wonderfully practical and solid way of teaching. Not the cheapest teacher, but perhaps the best. Show original

    Joel is a great Portuguese teacher – sympathic, friendly, and always full of humor. He makes learning the language feel natural and enjoyable, and every lesson is not only about grammar or vocabulary but also a journey into the culture and beauty of his home country of Portugal. I always look forward to his classes and I recommend him as a teacher!

    Very good combination of Portuguese and Dutch/Flemish/English. That is really a big advantage. Show original
