Our native-speaking qualified Portuguese teachers can guide you and your group at your work or at home, at a time convenient to you.

Portuguese 1 to 1 General

This set of Portuguese tutorials are less specific and more targeted at those who want to get a range of different things from learning Portuguese. Even though all novice students will cover survival Portuguese: enough Portuguese to make a visit to the country or make good contacts with the locals, but what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefitted from these lessons have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in Portuguese culture, and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Portuguese.

Portuguese 1 to 1 Business

These lessons in Portuguese are meant for those that feel that learning Portuguese would make a change in their work. For starters, it is expedient to learn how to say hello/goodbye, as well as basic business protocol; once the basics have been mastered, reading and writing come to the fore. Students who have greatly benefitted have been involved in import/export, international negotiations and acquisitions, jobseekers in multinational companies where another language is required, and those working in the international academia and government circuits. Even on our most fundamental beginner's lesson, students can anticipate ending the lesson with basic telephone Portuguese and e-mail Portuguese skills for communicating, as well as survival Portuguese if a short visit to the country is needed.

Listen & Learn do not generally recommend classes of more than 6-8 people, although Taster lessons in Portuguese can run with up to 12 people.

Portuguese Facts

The vocabulary of Portuguese is mostly from Latin, but there are influences from Arabic, as well as words from the Phoenician and Carthaginian languages

While Portuguese has many similarities in grammar and vocabulary with other Romance tongues, it is only really mutually intelligible for Spanish people - and even then communication is difficult

Portuguese and Spanish may have strong similarities, but there are also gaping differences; such as a widely differing stock vocabulary (i.e. basic, common words), very different word endings, and a more complex usage of the definite article ('the')

For Teachers

Jacksonville

The largest city in the state of Florida (and the largest city in the USA in terms of land area), the city is home to around 800,000 people. It is also home to one of the largest proportion of Filipinos in the country -just over 1% of the city's population has Tagalog as their mother tongue -the major language of the Philippines. Jacksonville is a rapidly-growing city rich in cultural diversity, with large communities of Asian, Hispanic and Arab speakers, meaning it's just the place to start learning a new language.
