Find Your Voice in a New Language
Language learning shouldn’t feel like a chore. My psychology-driven method helps you find your fluency by focusing on what truly matters: authentic human connection and joy.
Who Am I?
Hi there! My name’s Matheus, but you can call me Matt!
I’m a multilingual educator and the founder of Ludens: Learning Voyage. My Journey through the worlds of history, technology and languages led me to a single, clear vocation: enriching the human mind and deepening human connection.
A Teacher Who Understands
As a self-taught polyglot, I know the path to fluency intimately—the frustration and the thrill. My method is born from this experience, validated by years of teaching and elite-level certifications (DALF, TOEFL). I understand the journey because I’ve walked it myself.
Learning With Soul
I created Ludens to transform learning into a joyful, fulfilling experience in the ways that I can. My approach blends the insights of modern science with the art of human connection. We use the art and the culture you love—from cinema to music to videogames—to break down your barriers and build your confidence. There is no greater reward for me than seeing my students begin to think, feel and truly experience life in a new language.
If you’re looking for a guide who combines certified expertise with a deep, human-centerd passion—and who believes the journey must always be joyful—you’ve come to the right place.
Let’s begin this voyage together.
