I am brazilian and I did it. Try, commit and you can do it.
My family and I moved to the States from Belo Horizonte, Brazil about 6 years ago;however we still fluently speak, read ,and write in Portuguese. Since then, we have had the opportunity to go back a few times, and visit friends and relatives. I did not know any English before I moved here, it was difficult to learn a new language, but I did it. I decided to challenge myself and take college courses in high school, now I am currently attending college, and when people find out I am brazilian they frequently comment on my "lost" accent.
I love teaching my native language. For beginners I like to start off simple, with words and sentences that are frequently used, this way they can get around being able to say the basics. For advanced I go into debt with grammar, when to use and not use certain words.
