General Information

Classes begin on Monday. Students should arrive on Saturday or Sunday for orientation before the program begins.

On Monday morning at 8:30, students will be interviewed at the school to determine placement in the course. This procedure will determine your appropriate group to begin the lessons at 9:00.

Teaching material, Falo Português, is included in the program. This curriculum contains an interactive, reality-based teaching strategy with lessons structured around everyday language usage.

You will also receive useful information regarding events, shopping, scheduled activities, transportation and answers to any questions you may have.

Classes are held from 9:00 to 12:30. Students who booked the program Brazil Workshop PLUS will also have classes in the afternoon, from 1:30 to 3:10.

The school also offers cultural classes in the afternoon including Samba and dance classes, Brazilian cookery and music and percussion. It's your choice to create your holiday schedule in terms of duration and content of the lessons.

In addition to formal lessons, the program is complimented by outside activities and excursions, presentations of videos and documentaries, field trips to parks, markets, museums, bike tours, group meetings at nearby bars or restaurants, and concerts.
