Discovered by the Portuguese in 1500, Brazil was destined to be a melting pot of languages. African slaves proved a new source of contributions, followed by an influx of Europeans who migrated to the central and southern parts of the country after Brazil gained independence in 1822.
Virtually all the citizens of Brazil speak Brazilian Portuguese, a dialect of the Portuguese language. In general, Brazilian’s speak more slowly than their European counterparts, pronouncing each vowel. Italians, Germans, Japanese, and immigrants and from Central and South American countries also introduced new words and expressions into the language.
Due to its Latin root, Spanish speakers tend to learn Portuguese 50% faster than English speakers. This is an important tidbit when scheduling a group for training. Generally speaking, coordinators should place Spanish-speakers in a separate group.
Be Bilingual has successfully taught language skills to students for almost 20 years. In addition, our instructors are incredibly skilled college graduates and native speakers.
Be Bilingual’s courses cater to individuals, as well as those in the corporate setting. Each session runs at least 90-minutes in length. Students may schedule as often as they wish, though we recommend at least two 90-minute sessions per week to maximize retention.
Be Bilingual offers a variety of learning options designed to help meet your individual needs. We structure our programs to work with your schedule, and can even teach you at the location of your choice. Be Bilingual’s programs include: Private/Semi-Private Instruction; group instruction for Small Groups or Large Groups; Accent Reduction; and Immersion Training for students at an advanced beginner level wishing to perfect their Portuguese.
I really enjoyed the group Spanish lessons. It was a great way to learn a new language and interact with other people. It gave us the opportunity to learn as we helped each other out as well!
The book was easy to follow and good for individuals or groups. The instructor was great and made the class fun! I looked forward to my classes each week! It is a very professional organization and I highly recommend the (Corporate) group lessons!
