Portuguese Language Schools in Faro, Portugal

The school is well located, easy to access. The staff are super friendly and accommodating

Our teacher Denise was excellent. While teaching us the language, she gave us information about the history and culture of Portugal.
I would recommend this school to everyone.

Cial uses one approach in their teaching, so you can switch schools without falling behind in the course. The teacher was good and very knowledgeable and kept our individual learning needs in mind. The school does her utmost best to help you out.
They go pretty slow through the course materials. Just 3 chapters a week, everything will explained up to six times and I had to read the same course materials 2 or 3 times in class. The are pretty much on the clock. Not a minute overtime during the classes. A big difference with Fast Forward in Porto. If you have the basic knowledge and are keen to learn grammar, then Cial's teaching is pretty slow.

The first 3 weeks were very good. The last was a waste of time.
There was a flat area on the top of the building...But nothing to sit on. I finished the A 2 book in 3 weeks. I should have been allowed to continue to the next level instead of reviewing the last week. India in reception was the best. And Lourdes, my teacher, was excellent!

Cristina Palma, my professor, was challenging, friendly, and personalized the lessons for our class perfectly.
If you need a push forward in your Portuguese, I highly recommend going to Faro, CIAL.

Welcoming team
Could encourage more homework between lessons, but that's only a personal opinion. I was there at a time where few students were there, so there were not many cultural activities...
