Testimonials

I have been studying Portuguese with Ana for over two years now. She is an excellent teacher who makes her classes very interesting and interactive. Her primary focus is on speaking the language . She is patient , listens well, relating to her students and engages with each individually , encouraging them to speak. As well as the language, she likes to give her students a sense of the Portuguese culture and ends every class with Portuguese music. I would highly recommend Ana and Kultlingua.

I'm a retired school psychologist/university professor. I've worked with teachers my entire career. I am delighted to have discovered Kultlingua. Ana has all the qualities that you would find in a "master" teacher. She is able to match the pace of instruction to the individual needs of the student. She has a solid curriculum which she balances with outside resources. She is fun, supportive and encouraging. Again, I can only speak for my experience with Ana, but I have heard equally good things from my friends in other Kultlingua classes. I'm very happy to have finally found my Portuguese Language Home!

If only I’d discovered Kultlingua a few years ago, I’m sure I’d be pretty fluent in Portuguese by now.

Anna de Carmo is a total professioal. The lessons are snappy, the pace varied and the language is explained brilliantly. There are classes at different levels to which Ana will direct you as she assesses your level in a first lesson.
I have thoroughly ENJOYED and looked forward to each session. The recent intensive course provided plenty of consolidation, as well as insights into the local culture and music.

Inspiring! Roll on the new term.

My wife and I have just been attending these two weeks of really intensive online Portuguese Courses, and can highly recommend this. We received a lot of relevant documentation, notes from the classes every day, as well as very helpful, positive, patient and enthusiastic teachings from Lia.
Thank you for getting us started in a good way of our journey into the beautiful language of Portuguese. We have enjoyed the classes very much.

I enjoy the course very much. We have a lovely group. Ana makes it fun and very interesting. She is so knowledgeable and passionate about this great language, the culture, history, geography, the people, food and the music of this wonderful country. Without Ana and KULTLINGUA I might have given up learning Portuguese.

Laura Parsons

This is a great school and a great way to learn Portuguese. The staff are committed and their enthusiasm helps motivate the classes. The lessons are fun and, even though they now have to be on line, they provide an enjoyable way of learning the language. I would recommend them to anyone wishing to learn Portuguese!

Willy Roelands

I have been learning Portuguese at Kultlingua for about 2 years. Ana is an inspiring teacher and brings loads of energy, passion and fun to the subject. The school in Loulé is beautiful space, a nice blend of modern and authentic Portuguese. It has been really helpful to be able to continue the classes online during the Covid lockdown, both for my Portuguese and for my sanity!

John McCarren

Top drawer tuition, I have learnt more in the comparatively short time I have been with Ana, than I have in all the years I have been trying.

David Trubshaw

I really enjoy my Portuguese lessons at Kultlingua. Our teacher is very professional, friendly and makes the lessons good fun. Kultlingua provide good communication and are flexible with timings of lessons which is an important factor. I would highly recommend them.

Kerry Fitzpatrick

Excellent and fun teaching approach, including lot's of cultural aspects along with enlightening explanations about the way the Portuguese language is structured.

Matti Herlevi

Portuguese is a difficult language to learn for us Northerners but Ana and Lia from Kultlingua teach it to us with patience and fun. Great teachers, even if now possible only via Zoom.

Jack and Pauline

Descubrí Kultilingua por casualidad paseando en el estupendo espacio cultural de Republica 14 y tengo que admitir que he tenido mucha suerte en conocer Ana. Los cursos son practicos, muy bien estructurados y divertidos a la vez. Además están dividios por tipo de extranjero y son todos de pequeñas dimensiones. El resultado es excelente.

Andrea Ruani

We are a family group who have been taking on-line lessons with Lia for around 6 months. We have learned much more than we thought we could and put that down to her fun, calm and resourceful approach. That is not to say that she hasn’t also been highly skilled and at times, exacting. The background administration has been timely, transparent and seamless. We thoroughly recommend KULTLINGUA.

Alison Masterman

I am very fortunate to have had the founder of KultLingua, Ana do Carmo, as my Portuguese teacher. She is passionate and enthusiastic about teaching the Portuguese language (as well as the culture), and finds inventive ways to make her students learn. Once she establishes what interests you and what makes you click, she uses this knowledge to structure some (i.e. the non-grammar) parts of the lessons. Consequently you are more likely to learn and learn quicker. She also has an abundance of patience - even for dullards like me when in the early days, I was doing a very passable job of murdering her beloved language! In short I cannot recommend Ana and KultLingua too highly – if you want to learn the Portuguese language and culture, KultLingua is an excellent choice.

Maëve. Caroline Jamet

My wife and I just completed the A – Absolute Beginners (A.1.1) Portuguese class with Lia, who is an enthusiastic, infinitely patient and excellent teacher. We give Lia and Kultlingua our highest recommendation. We look forward to taking more classes there and (sigh of relief!) feel confident that Kultlingua will give us the foundation we need to pass the Portuguese language exam.

Jerry Brown

I discovered Kultlingua while looking for a language school to improve my Portuguese and I really couldn't be happier that I decided to take classes with them! The office is beautiful and conveniently located in Loulé, all of the staff is friendly and encouraging, the classes are affordable, and I felt like I made noticeable improvements soon after starting the course. Monika is a passionate and patient teacher who understands how to explain the complexities of Portuguese grammar and pronunciation in a way that is both informative and enjoyable. If you are interested in learning Portuguese while in the Algarve, please visit Kultlingua, I can't recommend them enough!
