Speak Brazilian Portuguese Course for Beginners

Who is this Course for?

The Course is ideal for beginners who want to learn Portuguese faster with the main focus on speaking from the very first moment. The students must be English basic speakers as the approach of this method in this first moment is used from the English-Portuguese language perspective. The reason is to facilitate any necessary grammar explanations, so the student can progress through shortcuts for the acquisition of the second language. Our teachers are aware of the cultural-linguistic equivalences and differences between at least two languages (pt/en).

The teacher provides the student with tools for its best development from a variety of materials and interactions, so they speak up everything they are learning. The method is first based on automation, meaning that the students automatize the use of lexical items, chunks of languages and sentence patterns and structures – especially lexicalized grammar – so that they can concentrate their effort where it is needed most; in comprehending and communicating clearly. During the process, the teacher guides the student in each step: watch the lesson + listen to the audio (dictation)+ do the homework + correction. The students work all four skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing. The material included is key in the process. The method covers very important skills, especially for beginners and students who struggle with pronunciation. Students develop excellent listening and pronunciation in the language. The teacher is in contact with the student and guide him through the learning process.
