Promoting Brazil’s language and culture since 2006
Some schools offer Portuguese classes.
We bring Brazil closer to our students.
Since 2006, our team of experienced teachers have sought to develop the best method to teach Portuguese.
Our unique method combines Brazilian culture and language in the form of conversation to help students master both vocabulary and grammar.
Today, we are proud to say that we have positively impacted the lives of over 1500 of our students, by helping them achieve their goals through the language.
Currently, we offer on-site classes in Chicago, USA, but you can sign up for our online classes that can be held anytime, anywhere.

Our conversation-based method is based on an intercultural approach. We want you to speak from lessone one.
Group classes follow a program divided into 10 levels, throughout which students learn to understand, express themselves and converse in Portuguese.
Group classes for Spanish speakers take advantage of the many similarities between the two languages, resulting in a total of 5 levels. If you speak Spanish, either as a native speaker or as a second language, we strongly recommend taking these classes.
Private classes are tailored based on the student’s goals and strengths.

Intermediate Portuguese
Levels: IP1, IP2, IP3

At this level the students achieve a conversational level of the language, not just in writing but also in conversation. Here students will attain enough command to discuss hypothetical situations, engage in opinionated discussions and be aware of the details of the language.

"Due to the teaching style & techniques of Brazil in Chicago, I became a Brazil-o-phile before even landing in Brazil! I was equipped not only with a strong set of communication skills, but a unique insight into Brazilian culture, local girias (Brazilian sayings), practical vocabulary, music, politics, and other current issues."
Kirk Miller
"I first started my Portuguese lessons to prepare for a vacation in Brazil. Little did I know the extent to which I would be able to leverage my Portuguese for my job."
Sabrina Kinckle
"I just received a very good compliment on my Portuguese. My employee here in Brazil told me that many people in the office comment on how good my grammar is. Apparently, they believe my knowledge of grammar in Portuguese is very strong for a foreigner. Yay!!! Thank you for everything!"
