Its main objective is to help you acquire the necessary oral skills to be able to certify your level of Portuguese and to help you achieve a higher level of oral expression and comprehension in the language.

With these individual classes you will achieve the A1 level of Portuguese according to the requirements of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)" 

Traditional academies and language schools teach Portuguese using an outdated and ineffective methodology. In this sense, they offer teaching based on the repetition of simple linguistic structures with no connection to adequately structured content or specific skills. However, teachers and psychologists believe that the best way to stimulate language learning is not to subject the learner to formalized, linear learning - for example, with rote learning - but rather, to encourage imagination and learning through sensory exploration in order to be able to understand and interpret what is around us. 

This allows the brain to work and learn a second language in the most natural way possible, in the same way that we learned our mother tongue. 

This is a unique, key and decisive program that will strengthen your oral Portuguese language skills and allow you to grow personally and professionally.

Put yourself in the hands of our university professors. They will prepare you with different activities of expression and interaction to pass the oral part of the Portuguese A1 certificate.
