Another tip in the way of suggestion:
failure/hopeless/useless = (pessoa incompetente) zero à esquerda, nulidade
nonentity/nobody = (pessoa insignificante) zero à esquerda, joão-ninguém, zé-ninguém/a person who is not famous or important
e.g.:
1- (pessoa incompetente)
- He's a failure as a teacher
- He's hopeless at maths (English, cooking, sport etc)
- He's useless at languages
- He's useless in bed
2- (pessoa insignificanate)
- He's a nonentity/he's a nobody = ele é um zero à esquerda
- She quickly went from being a nonentity [= nobody]to being one of the most famous women in the country.
(Ela rapidamente deixou de ser um zero à esquerda para ser uma das mulheres mais famosas do país.)

My two cents, just for variety's sake:
Before I found the EE my English was next to none [1], since then it has improved considerably.
Before I had bumped into this site my English was indeed limited...
I had scant knowledge of English when I discovered the EE forum/blog/site. Since then, I have learned a lot around here.
Before joining the EE I hardly knew any English, now it improved considerably. My English skills took a big leap.
Note [1] : be careful. There is the expression "second to none" that means "unsurpassed/first-class/number one, etc...", Thus, technically the opposite of "next to none".
