Conheça o curso

A modalidade Natural Teens compreende idades entre 9 e 16 anos e, não diferente das demais modalidades, também comporta grupos de, no máximo, seis alunos e carga horária de 3 horas semanais, podendo ser dividida em uma ou duas aulas por semana. O processo de aprendizado se baseia na nossa metodologia fundamental: a prática fluida da conversação.

Nessa faixa etária, a alfabetização já tendo sido introduzida, pode-se abordar um conteúdo muito diversificado, que varia de acordo com o nível, a idade e os interesses dos alunos, para que o curso se torne mais atrativo. Essa modalidade também disponibiliza o acesso às lições via plataforma online, para que ali complementem os estudos fora do ambiente escolar.

Will Pattenden

Will is British, born in Bury St. Edmunds. He has always had an interest in Latin languages and cultures, leading him to travel a great deal in Latin America, discovering a particular affinity for Brazil. He studied Aeronautical Engineering at the University of Brighton. Upon his first arrival in Brazil, he became enamoured with many aspects of the culture that this fine country has to offer, particularly the unique and recognisable expression through the arts that so well defines the heart of the Brazilian identity. Not to mention the food! He spent many years involved in BMX, but is now more interested in yoga. He reads a lot and has a diverse range of interests regarding the nature of the human experience in general.
