Description of Levels
Beginner
Is designed for those who want to obtain a basic foundation for oral communication. We start with numbers, days of the week, and general introductions. Simple verb tenses, sentence structure and practical vocabulary that you can use immediately are taught.
Intermediate
Builds on what is learned in Beginner classes. Vocabulary is expanded, past, future and other tenses are learned.
Advanced
By now, the student should be able to use past and future tenses and have sufficient vocabulary to ask for and understand information. New learning includes the use of the imperative and more complex sentence structures.
Each course begins with a review of the previous one. Class size is small so that individual needs can be addressed. Listening comprehension and cultural insights are integrated into each class.
Portuguese for Travelers
Is perfect for those who are planning trips all year round or during the Carnival Season.
