Lisbon
Lisbon is the capital and largest city of Portugal. Its metropolitan area has a population of over 2.5 million. One of the most enjoyable cities of Europe, Lisbon is a place of cultural diversity, a place where old and new come together to create the spirit of the city. It is located in the west, on the Atlantic Ocean coast where the river Tagus flows into the Atlantic. The historic centre of Lisbon is built on seven hills, and some of the city's streets too steep for cars or buses. Around the historical center, there are several administratively defined cities like Loures, Amadora or Oeiras that represent a part of the metropolitan perimeter of Lisbon. Monsanto Natural Park occupies most of the western side of the city, and is one of the largest urban parks in Europe.

Our Portuguese Language School in Lisbon is a Private Educational Organisation established in Portugal in 1972, and officially recognized by the Portuguese Ministry of Education. All members of staff are native university graduates with special qualifications and experience in the teaching of Portuguese. We are proud of our reputation, which we have acquired by offering a friendly personal service of the highest standard. We also organize excursions, historical tours, visits to bars, restaurants, museums, shows and exhibitions, both in Lisbon and outside. Students interested in sports can also combine their Portuguese lessons with sporting activities.

Porto in the north of Portugal is very different from Lisbon and is unashamedly commercial. Its metropolitan area has a population of over 1.5 million. The city's fascination lies very much in the life of the place, with its prosperous business core surrounded by smart suburbs and elegant villas, side by side with a heart of cramped streets and ancient alleys that has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Classified Area.

Porto is world renowned for the wine of its surrounding regions. For many visitors to Porto and students at our institute, this is the focus of their stay. Here you have innumerable opportunities to visit vineyards, wine tasting, producers, festivals, educational events, etc.

Since 1991, our Portuguese school in Porto our school has been devoted to providing high quality and personalized instruction in Portuguese in a professional and friendly environment. All of our teachers are professional and experienced native instructors, university graduated and trained in the direct approach to language teaching.
