The city of Calgary is extensively diverse and multicultural, with more than 50 languages spoken natively (according to the 2010 census). One of the most prominent communities of expats in the city is the over 3,000 people claiming Brazilian ancestry. Throughout the past two decades, the Brazilian population and the number of those receiving permanent resident status have been steadily growing, primarily due to Brazilians relocating to Canada to study, take advantage of more work opportunities and enjoy a better quality of life. Start studying Portuguese today and you will not only be able to connect with Brazilian and Portuguese people living in Calgary but also enjoy cultural events and arts around the city on a whole new level. Contact us at Language Trainers and we will prepare a course that suits your individual needs and learning goals.
Why Study Portuguese in Calgary
Learn Portuguese for Culture: If you are looking to experience the fascinating Portuguese and Brazilian cultures, there are plenty of opportunities to do so in Calgary. For example, those who love Brazilian and Portuguese cinema should not miss the Calgary International Film Festival, organized since 2004. This two-week event features classic and contemporary movies from all over the world, including Portuguese-speaking films. The movies are screened in Portuguese with English subtitles, but we are sure you will not need to read them after taking some lessons with us at Language Trainers. And if you are more into Brazilian Capoeira, you can take some lessons at Capoeira Aché Brasil Calgary on Edmonton Trail NE. This was the first Capoeira school in the city and has been in operation for over 20 years. You can take classes regardless of your gender, age and physical shape to improve your self-defence skills, confidence and overall health. The teachers are native Brazilian speakers, so after the lessons, you can approach them and practise your new foreign language skills!
Learn Portuguese for Social: Learning Portuguese will also come in handy if you intend to socialize with others who love the language as much as you do. Connect with fellow Portuguese learners in the city by joining the InterNations Space for the Portuguese in Calgary. This group welcomes anyone who wants to practise their Portuguese in a friendly, relaxed environment while having a good time. Another option is to join the Calgary Portuguese Language meetup, where you can learn and sharpen your Portuguese language skills in a fun way with nice people. They get together every Thursday and focus on a different topic to help guide the conversations, so you won’t get bored or run out of things to say. Put your Portuguese to use and perfect the speaking skills and pronunciation you will learn in your course with Language Trainers.
Learn Portuguese for Studies: However, if you want to take your Portuguese to the highest level, there are higher education courses available in the city. For example, the University of Calgary offers a BA Program with a Major in Latin American studies. This program is well suited to students who have a curiosity about the region and would like to learn more about the history and culture of Brazil, among other nations. Students are required to attain intermediate proficiency in Portuguese and it is highly recommended that they have a basic understanding of the language before enrolling in the program. Get in touch with us at Language Trainers and we will adapt our Exam Preparation course to ensure you meet the minimum standards for enrolling in this program.
