“Students enjoy all sorts of sports in the sand, like futebol. Playing soccer on Copacabana Beach was an incredible experience that not only challenged me physically but also enriched my understanding of Brazilian culture”.
Michael Rea, United States

For our students, the sand field has become more than just a place to exercise their bodies and minds. Among skillful passes and dribbles, students communicated in a blend of languages and accents, seeking to understand and be understood. From shouts of encouragement to tactical instructions, the soccer field in Copacabana has turned into a dynamic setting for linguistic and cultural learning. Thus, learning Portuguese goes beyond traditional language classes. It’s about absorbing the essence of Brazilian culture through its most beloved sport, while developing language skills in a practical and effective manner.
