Course description

In the intensive course, students will have the opportunity to rapidly acquire and develop the four aspects of language learning: comprehension, oral and written production, communicative and interactive skills. Students are encouraged to take an active, systematic approach to grammar and to use it in a natural, communicative way. The course will monitor the student’s communication skills and the ability to use Portuguese in real-life situations through the use of role-play, debates for intermediate and advanced levels, excerpts of films and music, and other interactive methods. After the classes, students may have the chance to continue learning with the school through optional extra-curricular activities.

The price includes:

- A placement test if needed

"My experience has been remarkable"

Olayide Biliaminu, student from UK

The school location is located at the centre of city. The Tutor and Trainer are well functional and fluent instructor. Also, the classrooms are well organised and equipped with learning materials. LUSA management equally engaged student in learning and social activities.

However, the area that require improvement is transportation I expected the school to arrange LUSA buddies staff to welcome student from the airport especially student that coming from other countries. They should be effective communication between the LUSA and prospective student that are coming from foreign countries. Hence, LUSA management can arrange LUSA buddies to support in welcome and pick up from the airport because most prospective student do encounter language barriers at the airport. That will make the journey for easier during the arrival of foreign students who doesn't speak or understand Portuguese language.
