General Portuguese courses

General Portuguese Courses General Portuguese Courses, Brazilian Portuguese in Salvador: these are courses for those who need to speak Brazilian Portuguese on a day-today basis, with the family or at work. The classes consist of practicing oral communication, grammar, reading and writing material.

When the student wishes to have the General Portuguese course (private or in a group), in the morning, and continue to practice what he/she learned during the afternoon, he/she can choose the Combo I. The Combo I program, in the afternoon, gives continuity to the program of the morning lessons, reinforcing, intensifying and practicing all the themes already studied.

n the Combo II, the student may have General Portuguese lessons, in the morning, with specific Portuguese courses, in the afternoon, such as: oral communication; intensive grammar; and/or intensive phonetics. The student has the possibility to more intensely practice aspects of the language that require improving.

Students are encouraged to take an active, systematic approach to grammar and to use it in a natural, communicative way.

In a part-time course, students will have classes twice a week in two days (either on Monday and Wednesday or on Tuesday and Thrusday) for two hours a day in the evening.
