Nosso Brasileiro

Our teachers are graduated in Languages and have the needed skills for teaching. We are high specialized in planning classes, and organizing courseware according to the students necessities, adapting the different kinds of methodologies that can be applied in a second language class. In our work, we see culture and language as extremely connected and you will notice in our classes. Besides the for

mal classes, we offer the Immersion Classes. The IC consist in taking the student outside the office to deal with different situations in real life. We go to malls, feiras livres, touristic places, bars and restaurants, and talk to people, order things, learn about the city: everything in Portuguese. According to Larsen Freeman, “learning another language also involves learning how speakers of that language live” (2000: 28). That is where the IC works in Portuguese classes, helping us to reach our goal. Besides that, we use audiovisual resources and music to offer to our students different stimulus for learning. We work with the Direct Method. This is a methodology in which the classes are taught in Portuguese, English or Spanish 100% of the time. The courseware material is free! We chose to work with our own material, because we feel that the PSL material offered at the moment is unappropriated. Schedule an interview so we can talk in person (online)!
