Go lessons in Portuguese

Brazil has one of the most active Go communities in the West, with a tradition that goes back to the Japanese-Brazilian clubs that first brought the game over. The scene is lively and growing — but the strongest teachers, the ones who can take a committed player to dan level and beyond, are in Asia, and they don't teach in Portuguese.

Live translation bridges that distance. Your teacher coaches in their own language while captions render every word into Portuguese on the shared board, and your questions go back in theirs. You study with a professional from your living room in Brazil or Portugal, and you keep Portuguese for the parts that are easy to lose in translation: why your move was slack, where your reading stopped, what the better move was.

Every teacher here is pro-level or stronger, with the rank on each profile.

Common questions

Do I need to speak the teacher's language?

No. The lesson comes to you in Portuguese through live captions, and your questions are translated back. Portuguese is all you need to bring.

Who are the teachers?

Professional and pro-level players, mostly from Korea and China — the strength the local scene can't offer, made available to you in Portuguese through translation.
