Teaching a foreign language is
showing the student the possibility
to use another logic.

The new Poliglota
In 27 years of history, the Instituto Poliglota has promoted the expansion of knowledge in foreign languages and in transnational culture and has become a recognized institution due to the large number of Brazilians and foreigners with different backgrounds, who have been part of our school's trajectory. Here thousands of people have been trained in a new language to communicate, open new perspectives, broaden their horizons and, thus, face new challenges to persue new achievements.
Today we renew our commitment to education and culture by expanding our field of action to the digital age with our "Online Platform", applying our Transcultural Communicative Methodology also in a virtual way. Likewise, we reconfigured our spaces for different activities and projects, such as the new Library with a mini-Museum, constituting a space for the preservation of Heritage, with collections of books and photographs of historical relevance.
Coworking is also part of our range of services and activities available through partnerships ranging from business, to cultural to social fields. We have several spaces, which allow different configurations of work and events.
We, who make up the Institute, are happy to contribute to straighten the connection among cultures and spread the understanding of different aspects of society, thus encouraging ourselves to become better humans.
