80 Portuguese language classes in London

If you are completely new to Portuguese, start with an absolute beginner Portuguese class, beginner Portuguese level 1 course or A1 Portuguese course. These classes are designed for adults with no previous experience and usually cover pronunciation, greetings, numbers, simple questions, everyday vocabulary and the first building blocks of Portuguese grammar.

Choose European Portuguese if your main goal is Portugal, Madeira, the Azores or European Portuguese culture. Choose Brazilian Portuguese if your main goal is Brazil, Brazilian music, culture, travel or work. Some beginner Portuguese classes are general, but many providers specify European or Brazilian Portuguese in the course title or description.

Choose an absolute beginner or A1 Portuguese class if you are new to Portuguese or only know a few words. Choose an A2 or beginner plus class if you can introduce yourself, ask simple questions and understand basic phrases. Choose an improver or B1 Portuguese class if you have studied Portuguese before and want to build fluency, accuracy and confidence in conversation.

Yes. Beginner Portuguese classes can be useful if you want to travel in Portugal, Brazil or other Portuguese-speaking places.

Portuguese can be a good first language for English speakers if you are interested in travel, music, culture, food, work or family connections. It uses the Latin alphabet and shares some vocabulary patterns with other Romance languages. The best first language is still the one you are most motivated to practise regularly.

If you already speak Spanish, French or Italian, you may find some Portuguese vocabulary and grammar familiar, but pronunciation and usage can still be different. A beginner or false-beginner Portuguese class can help you build the language properly without assuming too much from another Romance language.

Apps can help with vocabulary and daily practice, but in-person Portuguese classes give you live speaking practice, correction, pronunciation help, listening practice and the motivation of learning with other people. If your goal is to actually speak Portuguese, an in-person class can be a useful complement to self-study.
