I would have liked to give a sixth star for the quality of the teaching. Both in the mornings (lessons from the book) and in the afternoons (consolidation, communication), the teachers were of the highest standard. The exchange with the other students (from Canada and France) was also very interesting.

The school is in a very nice location. The size of the classes was very pleasant. You got a new teacher every week. They all had different characters, but they were all really nice and cool. At the beginning, it wasn't easy to listen to and speak Portuguese for 4 hours. But after a while, you got used to it.

It was my first time. Our teacher Ana was very good. She set a good pace. But she always made sure that everyone could keep up with the pace and always dealt with each person individually until everyone was back on the same level. Top.

I have learned a lot in a two weeks period, I understand the people on the street and I can communicate in a basic way. I am happy with the result :)
I didn't realise that accommodation with a host family would cost. I would have liked to have been told beforehand. But everything worked out and everyone was very helpful :)

Q&A - Questions and answers about Lisbon
- Are there courses starting in the first or second week of June?“Yes absolutely, it is possible to start your course at the beginning of June. Subject to availability.”Melanie Besnard, LanguageCourse.Net - May 12, 2023I would like to take a course in Lisbon. In which language will the classes be held? In English?“Lessons at the schools in Lisbon are taught in Portuguese from the very beginning. They are designed to be intuitive, so that you can get to grips with the language right from the start. In extreme emergencies, individual things are explained in English.”Lisa Saskia Schiwy, LanguageCourse.Net - Mar 17, 2023I am very specifically looking for a language course in Lisbon that focuses on "older" people. I will be 51 and would like to take classes with people of about the same age if possible - preferably not with very young people. Are there any language courses that focus specifically on that?“In Lisbon you can study and live in your teacher's home with the Study & Live organisation. This is one of the best possible options for learning a language quickly. You stay with the teacher and his/her family, allowing you to practice the language throughout the day. Even when you eat, as all meals are included. You can choose the number of lessons per week, and all lessons are private lessons with your teacher. So you can fully focus on your interests and make yourself even more powerful in mastering the language.
If this is not an option for you, perhaps we can look at schools in Lisbon with a higher average age in general Portuguese courses:
CIAL Centro de Linguas, for example, has an average age of 25 during the summer months and 35 during the rest of the year.
Portuguese Connection, for example, has an average age of 26 during the summer months and 30 during the rest of the year.
What you can also do is a mixed group course in the morning and some private lessons in the afternoon that you can really focus there on what you need.
