Class Experience

Vamos falar portugues!  In this four-day camp, learners will learn some basic, conversational Portuguese as spoken in Brazil and will have a fun time getting to know some interesting facts about the culture as well as nuances about the language.

Learners will learn through instruction and modeling by the teacher, followed by individual and interactive practice.  Emphasis will be placed on using Portuguese in conversational settings.  This is a beginner level, introductory course.  Approximately 25 minutes will be instructional time and 20 minutes will involve practice for each class period.  This summer language camp is designed to be participatory and will focus on attaining some basic conversational fluency and reading skills.

Class 4:  Food Vocabulary 

No required experience or prior knowledge is necessary.

Portuguese is my second language of 20+ years.  I have a love for the language, culture, and people of Brazil, and I love to share that knowledge, enthusiasm, and passion with my learners.  Furthermore, because of my professional background in studying phonology and linguistics in teaching English as a second language, I have a unique perspective and understanding on how to teach and learn language.  Plus, I find language and culture learning fun!
