Portuguese Course in Manchester

It doesn't matter if you want to learn Portuguese for business or pleasure - our customised language courses will help you get where you want to be.

General Portuguese courses will provide you with enough grammar and vocabulary to allow you to converse with native speakers, and form a strong basis for further learning. A Business course will focus on business protocol in Portuguese, and later on reading and writing will become more important.


It is your first session and your own requirements, however, which decide the precise content of the course. A Business course will generally include common conversational topics, as well as gaining greater fluency with writing letters and emails in Portuguese, as well as using the telephone. In the same vein, the syllabus for General courses is not set in stone - all you need do is ask your teacher.


We arrange Business courses for many clients; primarily those working in international trade, overseas governments and universities, and employees of multinational firms who require a second language. General courses in Portuguese suit those hoping to emigrate to foreign shores, people with a view to travel to countries where Portuguese is the vernacular tongue, those with a keen interest in Portuguese culture and language, and people with foreign spouses.

Info about Manchester


The third biggest city in the UK, Manchester was a vital city during Britain's industrial era, laying claim to being the world's very first industrialised city. With around 2.3 million people in the urban area alone, Manchester continues to be regarded as Britain's second city.

As with most big cities around the country, Manchester's size attracts plenty of overseas visitors, many of whom choose to settle there. This has created a massive cultural variety in the entire borough of Greater Manchester, but particularly in the inner-city areas where there is a high proportion of south Asian, Caribbean, African and Chinese communities. This cosmopolitan experience means the city is a great place to meet people from different backgrounds, and assures you plenty of potential practice partners when you start learning your new language!
