I have been having lessons with a teacher of the Institute for 2 months. My goal was to practice conversation and improve my pronunciation. After each class I felt more relaxed talking to native speakers in meetings, and even when giving business presentations to the general public.
In addition, the classes are great fun and current issues are brought into the discussion.
Marcelo Chianello, Vice-President, Teleperformance.

Having lessons in the Institute Rodrigo Faria has been a wonderful experience. All of the classes are practical and dynamic, which makes learning easier and more enjoyable.
Marcio Roberto, University Lecturer also working in the management of Sideral Materiais para Construção (Steel Materials for Construction)

At the outset I was afraid of lessons with the teacher as I am very shy and in conventional English lessons in schools, I simply listen to the teacher without having to speak. But in private lessons there is an obligation to speak. However, instead of being the torture I feared, lessons with the native teacher have turned out to be very entertaining and enjoyable. My confidence grew and I was able to speak without inhibition.
Adriana Bauer, Doctor and Lecturer in Education at Uniban

The teachers are very dedicated and patient, enabling us to speak in class without being afraid of making mistakes, correcting us whenever necessary and enabling us to develop with each lesson.
Max Migliacci, Lawyer

I have been having lessons in the Institute Rodrigo Faria for 2 months and have found this to be very productive, with the lessons improving my vocabulary. The lessons are always conversations involving current affairs, facilitating understanding and assimilation. As the lessons are with a native of the USA, learning is easier, especially when it comes to pronunciation.
Hamilton Kowal, Businessman

Having lessons with a native teacher is perfect for anyone who wishes to learn English as it is really spoken by Americans. The teachers, however, are not only natives speakers of the language, they understand the language, history and culture of his people.

In other words, The teachers of the Institute are exceptional of a type that is virtually unknown here.

Rafael Barreto, Systems Analyst at IBM

As a singing teacher and singer for nearly 20 years, I had the opportunity to record my compositions for the foreign market. Even though I had a very high level of English, putting these before native speakers demands something natural, that carries the emotion.
I met the Institute through the website and when I spoke with the teacher for the first time, I felt sure that I would no longer suffer the doubts and the different criteria encountered with so-called "language experts".
André Recasens, Singing Teacher and Vocalist with Madigator

At my age it is difficult to attend class and learn in the systematic way used in schools. Classes with the teachers of the Institute are freer. There we cover English used in real life, both professional and personal, in a relaxed way.
José Carlos, Endocrinologist

The private lessons I had during these months have really helped me in my work, and also on my trip to Orlando and Miami.
I hope that the teachers of the Institute Rodrigo Faria continue to be the exceptional teachers they are. Best wishes.
Eduardo Ferreira, Media Supervisor at Dentsu

Lessons with the Institute's teachers are relaxed. You learn naturally, quickly and efficiently. Ideal for those who are shy and wish to lose the fear of speaking in English.
The progress is surprising. After just a few lessons it is noticeable.
Edmilson Rocha de Lima Filho, Nephrologist, Santa Casa

I have studied English in different schools, following both group and individual lessons. Studying English with a native speaker is infinitely better than any other method I've tried. I was tired of promises made by schools for their revolutionary methods and Brazilian teachers who would end up speaking in Portuguese when they ran out of words. From the first lesson it is possible to see the difference. Above all, The teachers has a good overview of the material available on the market, always making recommendations and putting forward new ideas. The tips that are given in class are crucial for understanding.
Marcos Flávio Hanai Bueno, Electronic Engineer, Ford

Even those who communicate in English well, as I do, have insecurities with regard to pronunciation and the correct use of words and grammar as this is not our native language. Classes with teachers of Institute Rodrigo Faria gave me an extremely important sense of security for a telephone conference and prepared me for this challenge.
Priscilla Fiorin, Public Relations in the area of IT

Just because you are fluent in a language does not mean that you are equipped to teach. In the Institute I learned that teaching is much more than this. The teacher's teaching methods, whether for one-to-one lessons or for group classes, are extremely rich in content, practice and energy. I learned a lot during my stay in São Paulo.
Paula Soares, English teacher from Porto Alegre

When I decided to prepare myself for my induction into Berkeley, I had many teachers, but none of them suited my requirements like the teachers of the Institute Rodrigo Faria.
Yoshitaka Matsuzaka, Guitarist

The classes are very entertaining and you learn without realizing it. I have had three months of lessons and thanks to this I performed well in an interview to work in the USA.
Rafael Barreto, Systems Analyst, IBM

The teachers are not only great teachers, they are also intellectuals, connected to all that is happening around them. They are always innovating, even that which appears impossible to update. Our Business English classes were incredible and in a little more than one year I managed a score of 935 in the Toeic Toeic (Test of English for International Communication), where 990 is the maximum score.
Mitsuko Watanabe, Executive, Loreal Paris

My teacher at the Institute, with his enthusiasm and knowledge, has helped me greatly to prepare for a work trip to the United States.
Joao Paulo Micelli, Advertising Manager
