Olá gente! – Nicole Posted by on Apr 15, 2015 in Uncategorized

Olá! I would like to introduce myself to all of you as a new member of Transparent Language!

My name is Nicole and I’m an American that has spent years studying Brazilian Portuguese (casei com um brasileiro – I married a Brazilian!). I’m excited to help all of you along with your Portuguese learning journey! I know all of the ups and downs, tricks, difficulties, and pleasures that come with learning Portuguese and getting to know Brazilian culture. It’s an amazing process and a high five to all of you!

Most of my time in Brazil is spent in Manaus, Amazonas, where my marido (husband) is from. He’s a true Amazonense (a person from Amazonas) and I’ve fallen in love with the entire state of Amazonas. In my future posts I’m sure I will be talking all about Manaus and Amazônia (the whole region of the Amazon).

After high school, I immediately took training to become a professora de inglês (English Teacher) and bombeira (firefighter). I’ve worked for some of the top online English schools and started teaching Portuguese to other teachers within these companies. I currently teach English for a smaller company where I’m from in rural New York.

Até a próxima pessoal!

    It is a pity that this blog obly talks about Brazil. I would like to see things from Portugal, cabo verde , angola or other places where portuguese is spoken.

    Olá Nicole, sou do Brasil, moro em São Paulo, acabei achando seu blog por acaso na procura de americanos nativos querendo aprender o Português. Eu venho há algum tempo estudando o Inglês e estou a procura de nativos no idioma para trocar experiencia de conversação Inglês/Português. Sei que não é o seu caso pois vejo que você já domina o meu idioma, mas em todo caso ficaria feliz em poder ajudar e receber ajuda com o aprendizado. De qualquer maneira, parabéns pelo seu BLOG, está muito bonito e bem organizado. Até mais!!
