Portuguese

for foreigners

Our course is aimed at people of any nationality who wish to learn Brazilian Portuguese in order to develop verbal communication skills.

Although our focus is on conversation, students will experience all language skills throughout the learning process: grammar development, speaking, listening, reading and writing. This practice is developed through several activities, mainly through discussions on central themes in the community and in the world. Students are invited to speak Portuguese using colloquial expressions used in everyday situations.

They learn from a bilingual teacher who will speak, guide, motivate, correct, analyze and guide them closely. We give our students individualized attention and provide all the tools and materials necessary to improve the learning process. Our students speak Portuguese from the first class and learn to apply the language in real-life situations, creating linguistic competence and speaking for their specific needs.

You can take your classes with highly experienced, multilingual native Portuguese speakers, who teach 100% in Portuguese, but can also explain the content of the lesson in English so that you don't go home without knowing what you've learned.

  • Provide personal information: name and surname, country of origin, nationality, profession, phone / e-mails for contact and family members;
