Group Classes

The Group Course offers language instruction in small, dynamic groups for four hours per day. The maximum number of students in BridgeBrazil Portuguese classes is six. We pride ourselves on our ability to fine-tune the formation of group classes according to the level of the students studying with us.

Group Plus
30 hours per week
(25 hours per week for groups with 3 students or fewer)
This popular program gives you the best of both worlds: the interaction of a group class with the focus and efficiency of a private class. The Group+ Course consists of four hours per day of the Group Course plus two hours per day of private lessons.

Private Lessons
20 class hours per week / 30 class hours per week
Private lessons are a very effective way to learn a foreign language. The one-on-one approach allows you to learn at your own pace as well as focus on your individual language needs. In a private class, you can concentrate on certain grammar points or on specific vocabulary that you may need. Private 4 consists of four hours per day of private lessons. Private 6 increases class time to six hours per day of private lessons.

Immersion
40 class hours per week 
Immersion has consistently been our most popular program with executives and professionals who want to learn a lot quickly. Immersion is the most intensive and effective course we offer allowing you to learn in weeks what would normally take a year or more. It consists of eight hours per day of private lessons, which includes lunch with your teacher.
