Frequently asked questions

Can't find your answer here? Send us a query and we'll get back to you directly.

Do you teach Brazilian or European Portuguese?
Both. Our trainers include native Brazilian teachers, and our course material is prepared to suit either Brazilian or European Portuguese depending on what you need it for — let us know your goal (Brazil, Portugal, Africa, or general use) when you enquire and we'll recommend the right track.
What levels do you offer, and how long do they take?
We follow the CEFR scale from Basic (A1) through Intermediate (A2), Advanced (B1) and Expert I (B2), plus Conversation, Business Portuguese, Survival Portuguese and Celpe-Bras exam preparation. Each core level (A1–B2) runs as a 40-hour intensive course.
Are classes online, offline, or both?
Both — we run live online sessions as well as in-person classroom batches at our Delhi, Bangalore and Mumbai centres, with weekday and weekend timings, so you can pick what fits your schedule.
Do I need to know any Portuguese to join a Basic course?
No prior Portuguese is needed for the Basic (A1) level. A good working command of English is expected, though, since class instruction, materials and grammar comparisons lean on English as the bridge language.
How do admissions work?
Write to us or call with a brief profile of yourself and what you're hoping to achieve. We take a short interview with every prospective student to make sure the course and batch is the right fit before you enrol.
Can you train our team at our office?
Yes — our Corporate Training programmes are delivered on-site for executives and teams, with material adapted to your industry (we've built modules for mining, oil, BPO/KPO, IT/ITES and more). Get in touch with your team size and goals and we'll propose a plan.
Do you offer translation or interpretation on their own, without a course?
Yes, these are standalone services. We provide certified Portuguese ⇄ English translation, plus simultaneous, consecutive and tour-escort interpretation for meetings, conferences and visits — see the Services page for details.
What does a course cost, and when does the next batch start?
Fees and the current batch calendar change through the year, so the most accurate answer comes directly from us — send a query through the contact form or call our Delhi or Bangalore number and we'll share the latest schedule and pricing for the course you're interested in.
