We are sure that until the end of the course (in May, 2016) you will quickly go through the other two levels of Rosetta Stone (levels 2 and 3), so that by the end of the course we will be able to give you a certificate of the completed course.
On November 16th you will receive your “password” and “username” by e-mail to start the course. So, you will have two months and a half to complete level 1 in a feasible and pleasant rhythm until your departure to Brazil. Please, also be aware that you will count with the support of a tutor during the whole course.
In order to motivate you to start the course and see its effectiveness, we share with you below a very nice feedback we received from an AFS student from the USA about the Rosetta Stone Portuguese course.
“My favorite activities are the pronunciation ones, it fills me with pleased to know that I am speaking in another language! Very cool and helpful for my learning process.
The biggest challenge in learning Portuguese how big of a thing it is, it's a whole new language that takes a lot of time, practice, and patience to learn.
To my peers, I would say, don't give up. I know it's a lot to take in, but it is so worth it to get that little extra knowledge of the language. So if you do a little everyday it will be so much easier.
I'm so glad you all gave me the opportunity to use Rosetta Stone this year to help me learn Portuguese. Honestly, I'm sure it has increased my language skills by several months!! Thank you so much!” (Sarah, 17 years old, arrived in Brazil in early August and started studying Portuguese two months and a half before her departure to her exchange year abroad).”
We’ll see you soon in Brazil!
