Pan American School Of Bahia

Instituto Cultural Idioma

ICI is a Portuguese language school for Brazilians and foreigners and was created on May 2002, by us, two teachers with over twenty years of experience teaching at Universities and language institutions and studying in and outside Brazil. ICI works on all the levels of communication in Portuguese for foreigners. These courses are held all year. ICI operates on a system of weekly enrolment, which means that it’s possible to start on any Monday for a course of any length. From one week up to any number of months. We can provide your clients to a more meaningful and personal experience in Brazil. Knowing the language makes that possible. From the start of the programs students will be in contact with native speakers, within and beyond the classroom. There will always be many opportunities for them to learn to express themselves in a real-world setting. We can even assist those interested in volunteering in the area, offering an exchange that involves not only language but the gratification of helping others as well. At ICI students gain a deeper insight into the magnificent and captivating country that is Brazil by delving into its culture, traditions and history – all of this while enjoying the benefits of the lively capital city of Salvador and learning how to speak Portuguese surrounded by its warm environment. They also surround themselves with a staff of teachers and other support professionals whose mission is to focus on them and the quality of their experience. Our staff is made of very talented and dedicated people who spare no effort in responding to our clients’ needs, whether through customized lesson plans or individually planned adventure packages based on their interests. If our students are not satisfied in any way or things do not go according to plan, they have not only a shoulder to lean on, but also a staff willing to move heaven and earth to help and ensure that their experience in Bahia is the best it could possibly be.
