LinguaDireta, UK's largest school of Portuguese is based in London and has offices in London and Lisbon. LinguaDireta® is a registered trade mark of Portuguese language teaching, owned by Cognissima Global Training Limited.

We started off in 2007. Ten years on we became the biggest provider of Portuguese teaching in the UK and the only one that fully specialises in all the variants of the language, training hundreds of adult learners each year, either under our brand name or in partnership with Cognissima Corporate Training Limited, for individual services and corporate training. 

At LinguaDireta, we pride ourselves on offering a dedicated and personalised service provided by highly qualified teachers, first-class course materials and up-to-date methods and techniques.

All our teachers are professional native speakers with a relevant academic degree, and specific training in "Portuguese as a second language".

We are proud of our strong portfolio of clients which includes major corporations and institutions operating in Portugal, Angola, Brazil, as well as individuals learning Brazilian or European Portuguese for personal reasons, and school and university students.

Our clients include the British Foreign & Commonwealth Office, BNP Paribas, Hogan Lovells, Ernest & Young, and Exxon Mobil, among others. Individuals learning Portuguese for personal reasons constitute another important group of our clients.
