For the three-month course, a tourist visa is sufficient for stays up to 90 days. Specific visa requirements can be verified with the Brazilian Consulate in your country.

  • For the six-month course, a student visa is required. The Language Club can assist with documentation upon request.

2. Can I join the course after its start date?

Yes! Late enrollment is possible if your level aligns with an ongoing group. Small group dynamics ensure smooth integration and engaging practice.

 

3. Do you provide accommodation options?

We offer homestays for up to four weeks. After this period, students must arrange their accommodation independently. Many students prefer platforms like Airbnb.​

 

4. Do you provide immersion activities in addition to the classes?

Yes! Our program includes:

  • Orientation sessions to help students navigate Lagoa and Floripa, covering key services and safety tips.

  • Daily coffee breaks to encourage informal conversations.

  • Socio-cultural gatherings in the school lounge, featuring activities like cooking Brazilian dishes (e.g., moqueca) and enjoying local music.

  • Optional hikes on demand.

 

 

We also maintain regular communication with students to monitor their progress and satisfaction throughout the course.​
