About Rafael

Bonjour ! Comment ça va ?

My name is Rafael. I hold a degree in Languages (Portuguese and French) from the Federal University of Pelotas and a master’s from the University of São Paulo.

I’ve taught at the Alliance Française in São Paulo, and from now on, I’d also like to become your teacher!

I’ve been studying French for 11 years, 9 of which I’ve dedicated to teaching. I have experience as a teacher and interpreter, working with a wide range of students—from elementary school children to retired adults, in group settings or one-on-one classes. Many of my students have successfully passed the DELF, DALF, or TCF exams, obtained scholarships, and even residency visas.

About the lesson

To learn a language, you need to have as much exposure to it as possible. That’s why I use authentic materials in different formats to showcase the richness and diversity of the French language.

I usually work with the Défi method, which is built on an “action-oriented” approach. This method focuses on mobilizing the four language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) to complete tasks, such as explaining your routine, talking about your holidays, or giving your opinion on a topic. Special emphasis is placed on oral production—I’ll make you speak a lot (we might even gossip in French, haha!), making the most of our time together in class.

Don’t worry — I’m committed to ensuring that the course plan is perfectly tailored to your reality. In addition to Défi, we’ll use films, music, blogs/vlogs, literature, and articles from newspapers and magazines to discuss cultural and societal issues. The goal is to develop not only your linguistic skills (oral and written) but also your sociocultural competencies.

I also work with advanced students, including those preparing for exams such as the TCF or DELF/DALF. My students have achieved excellent results, often scoring above 80% in higher levels like B1 and B2.

Classes last about 1 hour, though they can be adjusted based on your availability, and are held via Google Meet.

I am generally flexible with scheduling, which is one of the perks of private lessons. However, to guarantee the right to reschedule, I kindly ask for a 24-hour notice, except in cases of force majeure.

So, what’s next?

No matter your goal or level, our classes will be lighthearted, filled with laughter, exchanges, and learning. Learning a language requires effort, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun and enjoyable, right?

Shall we embark on this journey in French, at your own pace? ;)

J’ai suis les cours de français avec Rafa pendant trois semestres, et son enseignement a été déterminant dans mon parcours en France.

Les cours avec lui m’ont permis d’obtenir un niveau C1 au TCF. Et par la suite, j’ai eu l’opportunité de partir en échange en France, où j’ai intégré une grande école et validé un diplôme d’ingénieur, en suivant presque l’intégralité des cours en français.

Il a une méthode didactique très moderne avec des cours en grammaire, expressions idiomatiques, lectures et discussions sur l’actualité, et grâce à elle j’ai pu développer un bon répertoire de connaissances culturelles sur la francophonie.

Rafa est un professeur passionné et attentif, que je recommande à toute personne souhaitant progresser en français.

I took French lessons with Rafa for three semesters, and his teaching was crucial to my progress in France.

The lessons with him enabled me to obtain a C1 level in the TCF. And then I had the opportunity to go on exchange to France, where I joined a grande école and obtained an engineering degree, taking almost all the classes in French.

He has a very modern teaching method with lessons in grammar, idiomatic expressions, readings and discussions on current affairs, and thanks to it I was able to develop a good repertoire of cultural knowledge on the French-speaking world.

Rafa is a passionate and attentive teacher, whom I would recommend to anyone wishing to improve their French.

Rafael est un professeur exceptionnel! Il est extrêmement attentif et motive les élèves à découvrir et à apprendre la langue française. Les cours sont très agréables, avec beaucoup de conversation, et accompagnés de supports variés, comme des livres, des lectures et des exercices complémentaires. De plus, le fait qu'il soit diplômé en lettres est un grand avantage. Je recommande vivement Rafael à tous ceux qui souhaitent apprendre ou améliorer leur français!

Je m'appelle Leandro et je suis brésilien. J'ai commencé à prendre des cours avec Rafael en 2020 pour améliorer mon français en vue d'un programme d'échange d'un an en France. Il a toujours été très attentif et dynamique pendant ses cours, démontrant une grande connaissance non seulement de la langue mais aussi de la culture française. Grâce à ses cours, je me suis senti pratiquement comme un français pendant mon séjour à Paris. Je le recommande vivement en tant que professeur.

My name is Leandro and I'm Brazilian. I started taking classes with Rafael in 2020 to improve my French for a one-year exchange programme in France. He was always very attentive and dynamic during his lessons, demonstrating a great knowledge not only of the language but also of French culture. Thanks to his lessons, I felt almost like a Frenchman during my stay in Paris. I would highly recommend him as a teacher.
