At Brazilian Trip, we believe the best way to learn a language is by experiencing it in its original environment.
The Portuguese Program is a comprehensive course arising from a union between our Cultural Immersion Program and Portuguese language course. Now guests have the opportunity to learn the language while experiencing Brazilian culture from a local's standpoint.

By utilizing the latest teaching techniques in concert with cultural immersion, the average student will increase his or her vocabulary and understanding of the language much faster than one would otherwise expect. Immediate increased proficiency and ease with the language will facilitate further communication with locals and lend itself greatly to mastery of the language.

Why you should study Portuguese:

Brazil is quickly becoming an economic, socio-political and cultural powerhouse and it's influence will only increase exponentially in the coming years. Brazil's population already exceeds 200 million making it the world's 4th largest country in terms of population, 5th largest in land mass and the 8th largest in economic terms. As you can see, Brazil is a mover on the world scene.

Brazil is nearly self-sufficient in oil and gas production and continues to lead the world in ethanol production. The recent discovery of the Tupi and Carioca oil fields will likely permit Brazil to enter OPEC as a full member in the very near future. The world will necessarily turn to Brazil for many answers, including the as of yet undiscovered curatives and medicinals found in the world's largest forest - the might Amazon!

Brazil's population represents a vast and virtually untapped market of potential business partners, clients and consumers whose purchasing power matches the rapid growth of its economy. Raw materials and excellent manufactured goods pour from ports making Brazil an interesting destination for investors.

There are literally dozens of reasons to master Portuguese, all of which will make you a highly marketable employee, a more satisfied and informed human being and an all around happy traveler:)
