Relocation · Families

Settle into Brazil in Portuguese, not around it

A program for expatriates and their families, from the months before departure through the first year in the country — covering work, daily life and the social codes in between.

Real-life situations,
real results.

We focus on the scenarios you'll actually encounter in Brazil — professionally and personally. No textbook filler.

Communicate with colleagues and teams

Handle daily situations with confidence

Understand Brazilian culture and communication

Adapt faster to your new environment

WHO IT´S FOR

Expatriates, accompanying partners and families

People relocating for an assignment, partners rebuilding a routine in a new city, and families who want everyone to manage confidently outside the office.

        Typical goals and challenges
        Handling the first months without relying on colleagues to translate
         Feeling comfortable speaking before the language is perfect
         Understanding what is meant, not only what is said
         Managing appointments, services and paperwork independently
        Building a social life beyond the expatriate circle

What is included

THE PROGRAM

Before you arrive

Online lessons covering essentials: introductions, arrival, housing, transport and the vocabulary of your sector.

The first months

In-person or online sessions focused on what you are actually doing that week, from building services to workplace introductions.

Partners and families

Parallel plans for partners and older children, arranged around school hours and household routines.

Example learning scenarios

✔ Introducing yourself to colleagues on your first day
✔Speaking with building staff about deliveries and repairs
✔Going to a medical appointment and describing symptoms

✔ Participating in a meeting and asking for clarification
✔ Dealing with service providers and scheduling visits
✔ Understanding invitations and social etiquette

HOW IT WORKS

A plan that moves with your relocation

The learning plan is revised at each stage — pre-departure, arrival, settling in — because the situations you need language for change quickly during the first year.

Delivery: online before the move, in person in São Paulo afterwards, or a combination of both. Programs for other cities are arranged online.
Outcomes: most students aim to handle daily interactions independently first, then widen into professional and social conversation. We set milestones together and review them, rather than promising a level by a fixed date.
