Tour Guide in Rio de Janeiro – Be our RioLIVE! Supervisor

Copacabana – Rio de Janeiro

At Rio & Learn, we don’t just teach — we live Portuguese. Through our RioLIVE! activities, students explore Rio’s culture, language, and people in real time: from the beach to the museum, from samba steps to local markets.

We’re looking for a Tour Guide to be our RioLIVE! Supervisor — someone organized, lively, and passionate about sharing the real Rio with our students. If you’re the kind of person who turns any outing into a cultural journey, you’ll fit right in.

Responsibilities. What you’ll do:

• Plan and coordinate RioLIVE! activities that connect language, culture, and fun.
• Act as a Tour Guide during RioLIVE! activities, leading students through Rio’s main spots and hidden gems.
• Teach Portuguese following Rio & Learn’s methodology.
• Engage students in Portuguese learning through our fun and interactive method — both during RioLIVE! activities and classroom sessions.
• Guide and accompany students during activities, making sure everyone feels included and safe.
• Train and coach other teachers to lead RioLIVE! activities independently, following Rio & Learn’s methodology.
• Oversee the quality of RioLIVE! activities led by other teachers, ensuring consistency in methodology and student experience, even when you are not on site.
• Manage logistics: locations, times, materials, and any small miracles needed to make things run smoothly.
• Represent Rio & Learn with enthusiasm and professionalism — be the bridge between our students and the soul of Rio.
• Track attendance, feedback, and results, helping us improve every week.

Qualifications & Skills. What we expect from you:

• Native Portuguese speaker (mandatory).
• Advanced or fluent English, with confident oral communication — you’ll speak with international students daily.
• Bachelor’s degree in Education, Tourism, Communication, or related fields.
• Valid Tourism license and driver’s license (B category) — both are required for this position, as you’ll lead tours and transport students during cultural activities.
• Previous experience as a tour guide, group leader, or working with tourism and cultural activities is a strong plus.
• Strong sense of organization and leadership, with energy to handle multiple tasks and groups.
• Genuine passion for Brazilian culture and the city of Rio de Janeiro.
• Positive attitude, creativity, and real commitment to students’ experience.
• This role includes late-night and weekend activities (such as night tours or special events) as part of your regular schedule.
• Comfortable using Google tools (Docs, Sheets, and Slides) for daily tasks.
• 44-hour work week (full-time CLT position).
• Energy, friendliness, and passion for teaching and welcoming people from all over the world.

• ️ Note: Night and weekend activities are part of the fun and energy of this job! They complement your teaching — they don’t replace regular Portuguese lessons.

What You’ll Get

• Base salary of R$ 3,000, with potential to reach R$ 4,000 when hitting enrollment monthly goals.
• Full-time CLT position in Copacabana.
• Monthly “Worker of the Month” prize: R$500,00.
• Dental insurance (because smiles are part of the job).
• Work in a multicultural environment surrounded by the beach and international energy.
• Real growth opportunities in an innovative educational company.

If you’re passionate about Rio, speak great English, have tourism experience, and want to make a difference in our students’ lives, this is your chance!
