portuguese language schools in bournemouth?

Question

Answer 1

1. Bournemouth specialises in schools of English for students from abroad, as you must know. There does not seem to be anything, at least on the internet, and I have tried a number of ideas. Here's a list of language schools, but you'll see the predominance of English.

2. Unless you want to rely on the internet for online tuition, or you are prepared to learn by "teach yourself", then I think you have to look for private tuition, which will probably be one-to-one. I suggest that these are your options for getting such tuition.
a) Brazilian students. You could put an ad in the paper, or even on the notice board of local schools of English. You may be able to barter free tuition in return for English conversation. The down side is that you won't have an experienced (and therefore effective) language trainer.
b) Brazilian media. This is a longer shot. There are a number of Brazilian magazines and similar produced in the UK (Leros is best). It may be possible to get a free or cheap ad in them. The down side of this is that most Brazilians are in London, and the focus/circulation of these publications is there.

c) Library. This is even more speculative. However local libraries do hold local information. There might be something useful there. Some libraries have cheap postcard style adverts on a display board (as newsagents often do), and language tuition is a common advert. The library staff might know of a Brazilian association, or a Portuguese-speaking club.
