Description
Spend up to three months living with a Brazilian family and teaching them English. A rewarding opportunity for travellers who want an authentic cultural experience, in a beautiful part of Brazil.
this perfectly-placed programme invites you to live like a local in a truly stunning part of Brazil - where you will experience an enriching and authentic experience.
It's simple, in this cultural exchange programme, you will live with a host family and in exchange for your own room and three meals a day, you will help them (usually the children) with their English studies for around 15 hours a week. So you can teach English in Brazil and enjoy all that this magical country has to offer in your free time. Pretty cool huh?
Overall, this opportunity will allow you to get to know the real Brazil, by fully engaging with the local culture. You may wish to embark on this journey for a number of reasons, maybe to sample a different culture, improve your Portuguese, learn valuable teaching skills, help a local Brazilian family - or you may simply fancy jumping on board a different kind of experience.
Highlights
This programme offers an amazing opportunity to develop your Portuguese language skills and ultimately immerse yourself in the Brazilian way of life. Although you will be providing 15 hours of English lessons to the family, there will be plenty of opportunity to speak Portuguese.
You will also have lots of spare time to explore the local area (mainly weekends) and visit places of interest.
