About Lilian

I'm Dr. Lilian Fleuri, a linguist and experienced educator. For over 25 years, I have been teaching adults and children to become confident language learners. My goal is to help you gain fluency and confidence in Portuguese and Spanish.

I design personalized lessons tailored to your goals. Is your partner a Portuguese speaker? Are you studying Spanish as a school subject? Is your child growing bilingual, or are you preparing for an exam? No matter what your goals are, I’ll design targeted materials to help you achieve them.

Born in Brazil and now an Australian citizen, I hold a PhD in Linguistics and am fluent in Italian, French, English, and Spanish. As a second-language speaker myself, I understand the challenges and joys of learning a new language. As a linguist and professional educator, I also understand the right approach to address your needs.

As a lecturer, I’ve taught at the University of Queensland (Australia), Middlebury College (USA), and the Federal University of Santa Catarina (Brazil), sharing my passion for languages and Latin American culture.

Join me and make language learning an inspiring, successful journey. Book your free trial lesson today!

During our first sessions, I learn about your needs through relaxed, guided conversations. Then, I create lessons that inspire curiosity, build confidence, and help you become an independent and confident language speaker.

  • Did you grow up speaking this language? Or were you inspired by a trip abroad, an individual or a certain aspect of the culture?

    I am from Florianopolis, Floripa as it is kindly called by its fellow citizens. It is an island in the south of Brazil. I teach Portuguese as a second language for almost 25 years, motivated be my endless interest in learning about other cultures.
  • Can you name a living, historical or fictional character that you think is the emblematic representative of the language's culture?

    Brazilian music is an important part of Brazilian culture, so singers like Chico Buarque, Caetano, Marisa Monte and many other singers and composers are representative. Soccer is also an icon in Brazil, and so its players Pelé, Ronaldinho, Neymar.
  • Is there a typical word, phrase, tradition or expression in the language that you particularly like?

    Brazilians love two main national traditional events: carnival in the Summer, and Festa Junina in the winter. These are the traditions that I most like, that get Brazilians together in any part of the world.

    A language I like in Portuguese is the "ó" at the end of a sentence when you are showing something to someone. "Toma isso aqui ó". It comes from "olha", look.
  • Why does speaking this language matter to you?

    It is my native language, it expresses my soul and my deep thoughts.
  • What is the main difficulty in learning this language and what can help the process of learning?

    Pronouncing nasal words can be challenging. I recommend you to close the mouth in words that end with nasal sounds and let the sound come out from the nose.
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to your language learning or your days at school.

    A German student in Brazil was surprised that Brazilians drink avocado smoothie, and told me how disappointed he was was he miss-pronounced "abacaxi" at a juice shop, when asking for a "pineapple juice" and got an avocado smoothie "abacate". At this moment I notice how similar is the pronunciation of both words!
  • How has travel or a specific trip helped you to increase your skill and knowledge of the language?

    I was 16-17 when I first learned a second language, Italian, in Italy, where I lived for almost 2 years. It was a life changing experience. I learned how to learn a language and to reflect upon my own. I felt in love about learning and teaching languages. Since then, I also learned English,French, Spanish and taught Portuguese around the world for over 1000 people.
