About Us:

Photo of Portuguese Classes in Chicago, ILBrazil in Chicago was founded in January, 2006 by Marcelo Jarmendia. After teaching languages in Brazil and the United States for over six years, he decided to open in Chicago a school that would not only teach his native language, but also share with Chicagoans his passion for his culture. Thanks to his relations, he was able to build a network of professionals working with all aspects of Brazilian culture, allowing our students to venture into capoeira, samba, music, and Brazilian cuisine. After three years in business and with over 450 students of 35 nationalities, we have now grown to three classrooms and a study room/library. And Marcelo is no longer alone: Marco, Maristela, Carla and Iris are helping him to spread the language and culture of Brazil and in Chicago.

Which is better for me: private lessons or group classes?
It really depends on what kind of person you are. Some students are shy and feel easily intimidate by others. Others feel better learning from other people’s experience and mistakes. In the end it comes to how much time and money you have available. Ideally the best way to go is private lessons in the beginning, for a solid foundation of grammar and pronunciation, then followed by group classes to get exposed to other people’s experience, thus expanding your vocabulary.

How do I know if I am progressing? Do you grade your students?
You will know you are progressing when the instructor advances you to the next level. After requests from our students we started grading them so they can see what needs to be improved.
