Português Natural uses the communicative approach, focusing on the four language skills: reading, listening, writing, and speaking. During classes, students engage in both spontaneous and structured conversation, receiving continuous feedback from teachers. To practice listening, reading, and writing, students receive a homework assignment for each class tailored to their interests, using the Homework App.
Our teachers
Josué Manteigueiro
Josué was born in Covilhã, Portugal, where he has lived for 23 years. He started his language studies at high school, where he focussed on humanities subjects. At the University of Beira Interior he completed a degree in Portuguese and Spanish Studies, deepening his knowledge of both languages. When he graduated, he started a Master's degree in Teaching Portuguese and Spanish, in which he participated in an internship where he taught Portuguese and Spanish to different aged school students. He now continues to teach both languages, and teaches Portuguese at Natural.
Total customization
Whether your goal is related to work, studies, passing a proficiency exam in Spanish (Celpe-bras), or traveling, we are committed to the total customization of your course experience. We use your interests, objectives, hobbies, and general profile to provide you with homework assignments exclusively made or selected for you. During class, teachers use engaging conversation to identify and register the vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar points you need to learn through the Lessons App. You can review this content in a dynamic and enjoyable way, including using games, in your Student Space.
Study Online
Natural Online offers the same quality and benefits as an in-person course: native-speaking teachers, the motivational Natural method, and proprietary apps that enhance the learning process.
