Reviews of our Portuguese courses
The lessons are going as well as I expected. Also, Ennio, my Portuguese teacher, has been patient with my scheduling needs.
Cristiane has a good knowledge of linguistics and regional variations of Portuguese in Brazil. I found this useful, as I need to learn this for my work.
Like many communities worldwide, Portuguese and Brazilian immigrants have shared their native cultures with the places in which they have settled, and Birmingham is certainly one of them: according to the Birmingham City Council Statistics, there are almost 1,500 people living in the city whose first language is Portuguese. If you would like to interact with this growing community on another level, improve your job prospects and even make the most out of your trips to Portugal or Brazil, then you should start learning the language today! Get in touch with us and we will start designing a tailor-made programme for you!

For example, you can join the InterNations group for Brazilians in Birmingham. This group attracts people interested in Brazilian culture and offers them a space to practise Portuguese in a relaxed and friendly environment. And if you and your new friends are looking to try some delicious Brazilian dishes, why don’t you go to Rodizio Rico on Commercial Street? From the moment you step through the door, you will be immersed in the authentic atmosphere of Brazilian-style dining. You can taste unlimited freshly grilled meats served directly from the charcoal. And don’t forget to order feijoada and caipirinha using the Portuguese pronunciation you learn with us at Language Trainers! Meanwhile, if you prefer Portuguese cuisine instead, Fazenda on Barwick Street is the place to go!

You can attend their classes and learn to dance with every Friday evening at Nicholson School of Dance in Digbeth.
