The B1 Portuguese Individual Online Conversation Classes are an intensively structured program delivered through online classes that prepare the student to pass the oral test for Level B1 Portuguese of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). This preparation will be led by native university professors, who will teach the student everything necessary to successfully pass this test.

In this way, these classes will seek to help the student to have the necessary oral skills to be able to certify their level and to favor their personal and professional growth by helping them to achieve success in the acquisition of Portuguese.

A unique program, taught in digital format and structured in an intensive way that will undoubtedly be a turning point in students’ language skills acquisition. 

Don't miss this great opportunity and achieve two goals with a single program: certify your level and acquire new language skills in Portuguese"

The model presented by most language schools and academies when teaching Portuguese has become obsolete because it is only based on repetition and memorization. TECH wants to break down barriers and avoid this ineffective system. For this reason, a personalized method has been implemented in these Language Conversation Classes to stimulate learning by encouraging imagination and learning through sensory exploration, in order to be able to understand and interpret the environment.

This system allows the brain to work and learn a second language in the most natural way possible, just as we learned our own native language. A unique learning methodology, based on the knowledge of native university professors. 

Learning a new language not only helps you to get new job opportunities, but also allows you to keep your brain awake and encourage its proper functioning.

As it is an individualised intensive and online program, you can study wherever and whenever you want.
