Learn Portuguese as a local and be confident to speak fluently!
This amazing course was specially curated with expats in mind. Offering a comprehensive curriculum and allowing you to learn at your pace and be confident with your skills.
A comprehensive curriculum
This course won't teach you simple sentences, it will show you the rules so you can make your own sentences and be a fluent speaker. It starts with a little introduction to the language and its history. The course offers you complete knowledge of the Portuguese Language, starting with the alphabet, phonetics, grammar and more. In the end, you will be confident to speak and write Portuguese.
Learn with a native
Learning with a native speaker is extremely important as it allows you to learn about all the cultural aspects of the language and be fluent culturally. This also allows you to be aware of variants of the language and make sure you speak the right language.
With lots of practical exercises to boost your confidence and encourage independent learning
This course won't teach you basic sentences to get you by. At the end of this course, you will be able to create sentences and know the grammar rules to do it.
At the end of each Module, we have our Speech Labs where we will explore vocabulary and create situations you may encounter in Portugal. Each lesson will end with a little exercise to consolidate learning and encourage practice. The use of dictionaries is highly encouraged as a part of building up your confidence and independence.
