Summer Course 2026.
More than Portuguese. A summer in Lisbon you’ll remember.
A new kind of Portuguese course, built around how the language actually lives in Lisbon. Mornings of intensive class, afternoons of practice and exploration, evenings of connection. Whether you are starting from zero, accelerating your current studies, or refining what you already know, this is Portuguese the way it should be lived.

A robust pedagogical core
Four hours every morning. Conversation-led teaching grounded in solid grammar. Small groups, certified teachers, levels A1 to C1. The same depth and structure you would expect from any serious language school, with sharper progress because of what happens after class.

Lisbon as a second classroom
Lusa Lab on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays takes the morning lesson into the city. Order coffee, navigate bureaucracy, tell a story over dinner. Afternoons bring cultural visits, neighborhood walks, day trips, beach days, and food tours. The school facilitates, you live it.
