I have nothing but amazing things to say about Fala Brasil. From the very first day, our group loved the teachers, the teaching methods, the lessons, all of it was done really well. The actual school was great too! It is a very warm and clean place. We always enjoyed going to the school and interacting with the teachers. They took us for a lesson on the beach, in the city and at a restaurant. It was one of the major highlights of our time in Rio. Highly recommended.

The school is located in a very calm street, and the classes took place in a cosy luminous house. I had several teachers, and liked each one of them. All of them have a different backgrounds that make the conversations very interesting. It's a nice school, where the people are friendly and welcome you with open arms. The teachers try to make their best to help you improve your Portuguese. I would really recommend it!
