After several years of experience teaching the Portuguese language to foreign students, Fernanda decided to found her own language school. The past years public demand for such a school had been growing and in Fernanda's experience, other establishments and University departments were not always able to accommodate these needs in order to give the students the tuition they deserve. Thus, she set up her own school where she welcomes many students eager for the Portuguese Language Experience.

The pleasure of learning, spontaneity, flexibility and fun versus rigidity and repetition, combined with nonetheless rigorous tuition are the hallmarks of this school. We write and use our own teaching materials that are created especially to complement the existing literature on the market. Imagination and creativity are the basis of every class, inspired by the diversity of the international groups of students with their varying linguistic and cultural backgrounds.

Individual Portuguese Lessons; Group Portuguese Courses; Intensive Portuguese Courses; Portuguese Conversation Club; Business Portuguese Courses; Portuguese Student Workshops.

Our teaching of the Portuguese Language links the reality of Portugal and daily life here closely to its linguistics. Our teachers tutor their students and in doing so make sure to offer them assistance wherever needed, facilitating the students' integration into the socio-cultural reality of their new country.

Both linguistic and cultural difficulties in situations of daily life, such as dealing with public services, banks, solicitors, postal services down to the more simple things such as ordering your meal in a restaurant and going shopping are all subjects discussed freely during classes. The teachers are always happy to help.

Cultural Activities are organized on a regular basis to complement and elaborate on the subjects taught during class.
