Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you know that I’ve been a student for 10 months now, and it’s been a fantastic learning experience! I love it! It’s cheerful, spontaneous, intelligent, and above all, a wonderful teacher! Great teacher, and throughout this time with her, I’ve had so much fun and learned so much. She truly loves her profession and loves teaching.
I was impressed by how the teacher fostered a strong connection with the students throughout the process, encouraging us to perform at our best without feeling embarrassed about our proficiency. The atmosphere was joyful and supportive.
The teacher makes me feel that every day is lighter. She makes me happy and motivated to keep learning because of their fun, engaging, and didactic way of teaching. The teacher explains things in a way that makes me feel comfortable, confident, and thankful for having such guidance. Her teaching makes me enjoy learning and inspires me to continue growing every day.
Turn your trip into a real cultural experience.
With EPA’s Brazilian Portuguese classes, you’ll communicate with ease, connect with locals, and fully enjoy Brazil’s food, music, and lifestyle; not just as a tourist, but as part of the culture.
Our very first class took place during the 2014 FIFA World Cup, when people from all over the world came to Brazil and needed to communicate quickly in everyday situations. It was during this moment that EPA introduced its innovative, conversation-based methodology — designed to help students speak naturally from day one.
Over the years, we continuously refined our teaching approach, combining modern language-learning techniques with deeper cultural immersion. Brazilian music, films, traditions, food, and real-life expressions became an essential part of every class.
Today, EPA is based in New York City, offering in-person and online classes to students from around the world. With more than a decade of experience, EPA continues to grow while staying true to its mission: teaching Portuguese through culture, connection, and real communication.
