Caravela School (Braga)

I had a experiência fantástica at Caravela and highly recommend it to anyone serious about learning Portuguese. Professora Madalena é a melhor! She goes far beyond just teaching grammar and pronunciation; she also provides insight into the culture and the subtle nuances of the language. This helped me feel much more confident navigating daily life in Braga. If you want a school that truly understands how to teach the 'why' behind the language, this is the place. Recomendo a Caravela a todos os que querem aprender o português a sério. Voltarei em breve.

Eduarda was amazing educator, who brought real life experiences on food and places. This made our classes fun! We learned so much that we’ve been able to apply it daily! The school was clean and inviting!

I’ve had a great experience at Caravela School in Braga in my A1 Portuguese classes with Madalena. She’s kind, patient, and explains things in a way that makes Portuguese much easier to understand. The lessons are very practical and full of useful, real life information for new residents. Madalena truly cares about her students, and I consider her not just my teacher, but also a friend. Highly recommend!

Olá, I have been extremely satisfied with Caravela School. I was a little confused about what language instruction to choose at the beginning of my journey here in Portugal. I did research and checked out different options, and found that Catarina at Caravela School was very welcoming and informative. Our instructor Madalena is patient, knowledgable and funny; we are very lucky to have her. I would definitely recommend Caravela to anyone looking for ways to learn this beautiful and sometimes challenging language. Thank you, david

My husband and I have really enjoyed our A1 and A2 Portuguese lessons at Caravela. Carolina is an excellent teacher. She is very patient and enthusiastic. The lessons are well organized, and supporting materials are well designed for beginning adult language learners. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Caravela to anyone who is serious about learning Portuguese!
