Minigroup
The Portuguese mini-group course in Maceió involves 20 or 30 weekly lessons of language in small groups of a maximum of 6. They are very flexible classes in that they are adapted to the knowledge level of the students. During the lessons different audiovisual materials are used, for example newspaper and magazine articles. Communication is encouraged at every available moment through role-playing games, speaking in pairs and making class presentations. Grammar, reading, conversation, revision and vocabulary learning is all very much encouraged through communication.
