Course description

Our private tutors adapt the method and the class topics to the interests and professional or personal needs of the student. This means that these Portuguese lessons are, to some extent, customised. Private lessons use a large element of question-answer exercises, adapted to the student’s level. Dynamic tasks are also used to acquire vocabulary and informal conversations between the teacher and student.

Price per lesson gets lower when booking more than 15 lessons and more than 20 lessons.

"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.
