Lissabon ist absolut eine Reise wert! Wohl wirkt die Stadt in den Aussenquartieren überraschend modern, doch die Innenstadt ist ein wahres Juwel, das sein altehrwürdiges Gesicht gut erhalten hat. Die Atmosphäre in der Innenstadt ist zwar von einer gewissen Hektik geprägt, doch die Stadt ist insgesamt recht übersichtlich und man findet sich in ihr relativ schnell zurecht. Die Studierenden wurden zu Beginn einer Kurswoche (oder zu Beginn des Kurses im Allgemeinen) verhältnismässig spärlich über organisatorische Details informiert. Oftmals musste man genauer nachfragen, doch in einem solchen Fall wurde einem immer freundlich geholfen. Der Unterricht war eine gute Mischung aus Übungen zu Grammatik und Wortschatz einerseits und Kommunikationsübungen (Lese- und Hörverständnis sowie freies Sprechen) andererseits. In meinem zweiwöchigen Kurs habe ich mein Portugiesisch doch merklich verbessern können. Ich wurde sehr herzlich bei meiner Gastgeberin aufgenommen. Ich hatte aufgrund des Tagesablaufs zwar relativ wenig Kontakt zu ihr, doch wenn wir uns begegneten, herrschte stets eine sehr angenehme Atmosphäre. Sie war sehr hilfsbereit bei allen Fragen und Schwierigkeiten, die sich ergaben. Auch die Lage der Unterkunft war ideal: In 10 Minute konnte man zur nächsten U-Bahn-Station gelangen. Die Nachmittagsausflüge waren zwar sehr interessant, doch wirkten sie z. T. etwas improvisiert. Man hätte bei den wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten Lissabons evtl. auch auf offizielle Führungen zurückgreifen können. Vor allem wäre es mir ein Anliegen gewesen, dass das Portugiesische bei den Ausflügen nicht zu kurz gekommen wäre.

« Mein Aufenthalt war zwar nur verhältnismässig kurz (2 Wochen), aber ich denke, dass ich in dieser Zeit im Portugiesischen doch einiges dazulernen konnte. In erster Linie konnte ich - durch die täglichen Gespräche auf Portugiesisch mit meinen Lehrern und meiner Gastgeberin - einiges an Wortschatz dazugewinnen und lernen, mich sprachlich etwas präziser auszudrücken. »

School highlights

« Die Schule ist relativ klein und übersichtlich, sodass man schnell mit den meisten Leuten (auch aus anderen Klassen) in Kontakt kommt. Nebst dem regulären Unterricht bietet die Schule auch Lernmaterialien für das Selbststudium zum Verkauf an. Ausserdem ist die Schule sehr zentral gelegen. In nächster Nähe finden sich zahlreiche Möglichkeiten, sich in der Mittagspause zu verpflegen. Auch eignet sich die Schule gut als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge am Nachmittag, nach dem Unterricht. »

Top tips

« In Lissabon gibt es zahlreiche Aussichtspunkte mit tollem Blick auf die Innenstadt und den Tejo, bspw. das Castelo de São Jorge oder die Plattform oberhalb des Elevador de Santa Justa. Unter den Quartieren sticht vor allem die Alfama hervor (eine der wenigen Fussgängerzonen Lissabons): inmitten von bunten Häusern wechseln sich enge und steile Gassen mit etwas grösseren Plätzen ab, und es finden sich auch einige Kirchen in dem Quartier. Besonders interessant ist das Museu do Aljube, das die Diktatur unter Salazar und die Widerstandsbewegung gegen die Diktatur thematisiert. »

Maria est tres gentille et accueillante. On a pris les petits déjeuners ensemble pendant tout le sejour. La chambre n'avait malheureusement pas de vue directe sur exterieur mais avait une salle de bains dediee. L'eau chaude est tres difficile a regler.

Lissabon hat extrem viel zu bieten. Kulturell, geschichtlich, kulinarisch und auch zum Weggehen. Die Stadt ist sehr schön und lebendig. Da ich bereits dort war, habe ich meine Entscheidung nicht bereut. Die Schule ist sehr gut gelegen und gut zu Fuss erreichbar. Die Klassenzimmer sind teilweise etwas eng und das Internet funktioniert nicht immer einwandfrei. Leider wurden die Schulzimmer fast jede Woche kurzfristig geändert. Auch die Lehrpersonen wurden erst anfangs der Woche informiert. Ansonsten gab es ein Superangebot an Aktivitäten, nettes Personal und die Kurse waren meistens gut abgestimmt. Dadurch, dass jede Woche neue Kursteilnehmer reinschneien, wird der Kurs immer wieder gebremst und sozusagen unterbrochen. Ein Problem bereitet auch die Klassenzusammensetzung, wenn die Hälfte der Kursteilnehmer keine Hausaufgaben macht und im Kurs nicht richtig mitmacht oder kaum kommuniziert bzw. aktiv mittmacht. Das ist dann für motivierte und aktive Lernende etwas mühsam und teilweise auch ärgerlich für das investierte Geld.Meine Lehrpersonen waren alle sehr kompetent. Vielleicht könnte man methodisch mehr Abwechslung in den Kurs bringen (Bsp. Gruppenarbeiten, Partnerarbeit, mehr Interaktion der Lernenden ohne Lehrpersonenfokus bzw. weniger magistral). Im Grossen und Ganzen war der Aufenthalt eine gute Erfahrung und ist empfehlenswert. Angenehme Wohnung, relativ ruhig und gut gelegen. Das Zimmer ist top. Das Bad ist etwas eng (WC und Dusche). Sehr tolle Angebote und kompetente Begleitung. Danke für die Bemühungen! :-)

Testimonials

Walter Villarreal

CIAL, Lisbon
Duration: 2 weeks

Thanks to ESL, I achieved the dream of all language students: living in the country where the language they are studying is spoken. I had a wonderful stay, from my arrival in Lisbon until my departure. I was immersed in the language on a 24-hour basis: when speaking, writing, reading, talking to the locals, discovering their culture and in the various situations of everyday life (shopping, contacts with administration, arrival at the airport, etc.). It was very useful and rewarding. Once on site you realise how difficult the local economic situation is. As you may know, the economic crisis is still going on in Europe. This trip allowed me to talk directly to Portuguese people and see how they are dealing with the crisis in such a difficult context. Regarding the school, it is well located. The teacher is very competent. Thanks to her, I made a lot of progress in Portuguese and I would like to thank her for that and my group as well.

I met people who shared my interest in the Portuguese language, it was great. They had different accents (English, French, German among others). I was the only one who came from Latin America, and the only one from Argentina. When my classmates heard that I was from Patagonia, Argentina, they started asking me lots of questions about major tourist sites in my country (ex. Perito Moreno Glacier, Ushuaia, San Carlos de Bariloche, the whales in Puerto Madryn, etc.) during breaks. I was surprised to see how much they knew about Argentina and I felt proud to represent my dear Patagonia. Thanks to my language course, I made new friends and established contacts all over the world. Thanks again! I hope to go on another trip soon if the context is still favourable in my country.

CIAL, Lisbon
Duration: 4 weeks

Just like the Portuguese language, Lisbon has a charm of its own. I have been learning this language for a year in my free time and last summer, I spent four weeks in Lisbon thanks to ESL. The CIAL school organised many extra-curricular activities, most of which were free. I can only recommend this experience in Lisbon, at this school.

CIAL, Lisbon
Duration: 2 weeks

I spent 2 weeks in CIAL Lisbon, Portugal and loved every moment of it. The only regret I have is not staying longer. It was my first time studying abroad and I highly recommend it to everyone. It's a great way to learn any language quickly. I never stopped practising Portuguese, if it wasn't in a classroom, it was among my classmates at a local cafe or on a social activity organised by the school. The social programme was very good and I am happy I took part in so many excursions. It was a great way to explore Lisbon from local people and not from a tour guide! I was also very impressed as all trips were free including students travel to the site. The best part of my study abroad were the teachers, they were very helpful and intelligent. I will defiantly be visiting CIAL Lisbon in the near future.

It includes seven bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, three shared bathrooms, a living area with a TV and a balcony.
