“We have been taking private Portuguese language classes with Mi Casa for a while now and the prices and quality of teaching offered by Mi Casa of Languages surpasses any other institution in Cape Town. We need Portuguese for work purposes; being analysts. Our experience with Mi Casa of Languages has been excellent. It's always a pleasure dealing with Antonio and Melita on the admin side and they're always accommodating and eager to assist. Our teacher is always reliable, and over time, we've developed a great relationship with Mi Casa and our Portuguese has improved significantly. We highly recommend Mi Casa of Languages to anyone wanting to learn Portuguese or Spanish; from business people to individuals just interested in the region.”

“Our experience with Mi Casa of Languages has been a positive one from day one. I logged enquiries for corporate lessons with 5 service providers. I ranked the replies in terms of response time, professionalism, flexibility, value for money and efficiency. Mi Casa came out tops. They were also able to accommodate our very busy schedules. For us this is a critical factor, especially in the corporate sector where operations can change from one day to the other, without notice. Antonio and his team made a tremendous effort to always accommodate any request for change that we made, and never made us feel like a nuisance. Their response time on emails and phone calls is minimal and their organisational skills in coordinating lesson times are extraordinary.

I highly recommend Mi Casa of Languages to anyone wishing to learn Spanish or Portuguese."

“Mi Casa of Languages has been our Portuguese Language partner since 2012; and what an absolute pleasure it is dealing with such professionals. We consider Mi Casa to be a department within our firm. They are always on hand for any quick and thorough translations and our HR department would not have been able to function optimally without their assistance with our Angolan and Mozambique Job placements, application screening and communication facilitation. Over the years, many of our staff has completed their Language courses which have added to their skills set and overall worth to the company. Mi Casa goes beyond the call of duty and because of their record turnaround time, no challenge is ever too big. We are looking forward to many years of partnership and highly recommend Mi Casa to any business.”

"Our staff's jobs entail a great deal of travelling... not ideal when you are trying to learn a new language, but Mi Casa has been great. They provide strong, structured group lessons but are also flexible enough to provide us with the flexibility needed when the staff travels, always providing alternatives, catch-up classes and innovative solutions... ideal for corporate students who can't always commit to the same time each week.

The lecturers are professional, well versed and a true asset."

"As an actress it is of utmost importance to keep learning!

Mi Casa of Languages is the perfect place to do that. The staff is extremely professional, accommodating and constantly adapting to make the learning process as easy as possible.

The teachers are just absolutely superb!

The school is completely results driven and constantly encourage you to succeed.

Recently I did my first audition; using my Spanish skills which Mi Casa helped me prepare for. How Great?!

Thank you guys for opening up a world of possibilities, making learning such an awesome experience and accepting me as part of the Mi Casa family!"

"Latin America is a large market for us and we have wanted to learn Spanish for business purposes. Mi Casa has been extremely accommodating in terms of fitting in with our busy schedules and our frequent travels without losing track of where we were at and what to do next. Our teacher, Julio (Head of Academics @ Mi Casa) challenges us regularly; he is not easily satisfied with mediocre progress which is precisely what we need. Classes are interactive, challenging yet easy to follow, funny and time always goes by too fast.

We would not swap our Julio for any other teacher or language school."

“After a shocking first experience at another language school, it was like a breath of fresh air to deal with the staff at Mi Casa: Prompt replies, great value for money, professional teachers, nice atmosphere, well-structured course book... I just love my 'little language leisure lessons' with my teacher - in the busy schedule of working as a teacher myself and being a mom of two small children - a real treat!

After only 3 months I could get by in Spain with basic conversations. Long term goal: Central and South America with advanced conversational Spanish. Thanks, Mi Casa team, for helping me reach my goal!”

"We are enjoying our lessons tremendously and the progress is phenomenal. I am sure it is not easy for our teacher to teach a bunch of 50+ year olds a new language, yet we have managed to learn so much in such a short time.

Mi Casa has provided us with an excellent teacher, with the world of patience and we cannot thank Mi Casa enough for the excellent service they are providing us in teaching us Portuguese!

We are enjoying every moment and the moral in the office has increased significantly since we have been learning, as our lessons also doubles up as a team-building exercise!"

"I am not young anymore and learning something new is only done of out necessity. Especially languages!

I lived in California for 3 years and now live and work in Sao Paulo. Over the 5 year period I have attended two Spanish schools in the USA and three Portuguese schools in Brazil. But the only thing I (really) could remember was that it is Hola (with an H) in Spanish and Ola (without the H) in Portuguese. In a final attempt to learn some Portuguese, I eventually ended up at Mi Casa of Languages. A true life changing experience! (people who live in Latin speaking countries will know what I mean). I have learned more Portuguese at Mi Casa in 3 months than I did in two years in Brazil. Finally it all makes sense. The grammar that was beyond comprehension previously just comes naturally now. The material and the way they teach, is as if the course was designed for me specifically. I am so grateful and recommend this school shouting from the top of every mountain!"

"EE is an International Events and Conferencing company and we have worked a number of International Sporting events, (World Cup 2014 and Olympics 2016) where Mi Casa of Languages has played an integral role in our planning and communication.

Mi Casa is professional and provides top class support and training. The teachers are intellectuals and their passion for their languages and cultures are very apparent.

Our Language course progressed quickly and in 3 short months we feel that the knowledge gained in the course has been worth every cent!

We highly recommend Mi Casa, especially to South African businesses with interests in Portuguese speaking countries in Africa and abroad. They are accommodating and flexible and will ensure that you gain as much as possible from your investment in learning Portuguese (or Spanish of course!)"

"Mi Casa is my home away from home. No matter how long my work day has been, I always get excited about going to class! Mi Casa is operated by professionals and all aspects of the school are extremely efficient; from the teachers, learning materials, admin and finance departments. The atmosphere is incredibly friendly, colourful and welcoming, which provides a comforting environment to learn a new language and meet new people. I could not recommend a better language school in Cape Town. (I have been to others before)"

"We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Mi Casa of Languages as they made each session meaningful and entertaining. Our teacher always adds a personal touch as he is genuinely interested in you succeeding in learning the language. We also learnt an enormous amount about the Brazilian culture as we would often discuss current affairs in Brazil, and Julio’s experiences growing up and living in Brazil – a real insight into the people and heritage behind the language.

In terms of price, we found Mi Casa to be the most competitive and in terms of the organisation, we found Mi Casa to be a well-oiled machine; extremely efficient, accommodating and we could not fault them on anything."

"Oh my word – where do I begin?! Prospective students. Please take the time to read my short review and spare yourself a lot of aggravation, frustration, money and valuable time!
There is not one Spanish school I haven’t attended or one private Spanish teacher I haven’t commissioned in the past 3 years. I have been to them all and learned to accept their unprofessionalism and arrogance as the norm. The fact that I were so confused and made no progress anywhere resulted in me thinking and believing that the problem lied with me.

My fiancé is a Spanish native, so giving up was not an option. Mi Casa was always my 1st choice, but because they seemed so established, I assumed that they would be too expensive and I would not be able to afford their courses.

My fiancé enquired and they were even more affordable than the other schools two years back. The courses are professionally structured and the course material easily comprehensible. I had a “eureka moment after my very 1st lesson! All I can say is choose right and save yourself the aggravation, disappointment, money and time! Muchas gracias Mi Casa de idiomas!"

"We completed a 2 week intensive Portuguese course with Mi Casa, due to time constraints. We learned the structure and the rules of written and spoken Portuguese to level 1, enough to understand Portuguese speaking people in Angola. (In only two weeks!)

The course gave us the framework of learning Portuguese that we could use on our own to progress further in our Portuguese studies where we are based in Angola; by talking to Portuguese speaking people, watching TV and reading.

I am extremely satisfied with the Mi Casa school methodology and the professionalism of its teachers. Our expectations were exceeded."

"My experience at Mi Casa is an exceptional one. I became proficient at learning Spanish, which was always a dream of mine; and to be fluent in such a widely spoken language is truly empowering as someone who travels frequently.

The tuition received was exemplary and my tutor is always full of smiles. The administration ran like clockwork and the coordinators were always available to provide assistance. I found this particularly important, as being a doctor and often busy, I relied heavily on the flexibility of Mi Casa in accommodating my requests. For such a nominal charge and high standard, this school is certainly a first choice!"

"The School is well located and very easy to access. We found the teachers to be very well experienced and educated, as most of our staff speak atleast one Latin Language – so we are familiar with the grammatical structures. They cater for every student’s individual needs and are always willing to assist anytime.

The teaching style is friendly, warm and extremely professional.

We will definitely recommend anyone from any background who wishes to learn a foreign language, as it’s really beneficial and progress is very quick."

"I’ve always dreamed about learning Portuguese; it being my father’s native language, but finances always held me back.

All the staff at Mi Casa was very helpful and understanding and they generously arranged a payment plan for me, which allowed me to attend classes and make my dream a reality. I found the learning experience fun and culturally enriching. What stood out to me was that we were not limited to only one teacher, but had access to all the teachers and received assistance and input from everyone during the process. All the teachers are so interesting and knowledgeable about everything Portuguese. Class was always different and (sometimes) challenging but there was never a dull or boring moment!

I would recommend Mi Casa of Languages to anyone who is eager to learn and at the same time make new like-minded friends. I’m very grateful for my experience and the opportunity to learn with Mi Casa"

"I picked up Portuguese whilst living in Brazil. Mi Casa has helped me to improve, correct and maintain a consistent growth.

Not only do I have an amazing teacher that helps me with the correct grammar, but I have opportunities to talk in Portuguese and enjoy the language.

Their admin team has also been amazing. Because of my work schedule I often have to be flexible and they've been a great support by helping me to still attend my classes. I look forward to continue studying with them so that I can become fluent at a business level and to be able to join in conversations and read about Law and Politics.

To other students: Learning a new language is fun, but don't give up when it starts feeling too difficult. Find a great school, like Mi Casa and keep studying! Then when you meet a new friend that can speak the language too, it's the best feeling in the world! Plus it's fun to gossip ;- )"

"What started as a whim to learn another language while my aging brain still had some capacity, turned out to be one of the most satisfying experiences of my retired years. This was due to the friendly efficiency of Antonio as he placed me in classes where I met interesting people from different professions and found those classes really stimulating. He was also very patient with finding times that suited me. I also appreciated the easy payment plan which suited my budget.

My Professor was a really good teacher – and the classes were fun and informative. The learning material used was great – and I learnt so much about the culture, history, geography and food of Brazil – and plan to visit that country soon! The social evenings were great fun too, and I have met and still keep up with many of the students I met through the school."

"I started my journey with Mi Casa in 2016 when I decided to learn Portuguese in order to benefit my career at a big retail company. I requested information from a few places, but Mi Casa was the first to respond to my request and also had the best quotation. The rest is history.

I started Portuguese classes soon after and are still in awe about the friendly service, good teachers and always willing to help attitude. Because of work responsibilities I sometimes need to make other arrangements for classes and they are always willing to accommodate a new arrangement. Their different payment plans also makes it possible to spread out the extra financial responsibility over a couple of months.

Thank you Mi Casa, I am looking forward to the rest of my time with you."

"I wanted to learn a new language for travel purposes. The result was not only the knowledge of a new language but the pleasant environment of like-minded people and new friends.

The teachers are very knowledgeable, well versed in both their native language as well as English, extremely patient and attentive to each student.

Mi Casa has been accommodating and extremely flexible when I required extra lessons or when I had to 'make up' missed classes due to work and other responsibilities.

I would definitely recommend Mi Casa of Languages to anyone who is serious about learning a new language."

"We have started the process of learning Spanish at another institution with not much success. As a Spanish-owned company, it was of utmost importance that our staff has at least a basic understanding of the language, but because of our previous failed attempt with a school of a similar name, we were very sceptical investing more money into such a project.

From the very first day Mi Casa staff arrived at our premises, we realised that these guys were in a complete different league than the previous service provider. The appearance of their staff, the professionality in their conduct, the well-presented course material; the list goes on. These guys looked like they meant business and they did!

A few months later, most staff in the training program is conversing in Spanish and our Directors cannot be more pleased with this investment. What also contributed to the success was that Mi Casa also helped us to monitor our staffs’ progress together with our HR Department. We highly recommend Mi Casa of Language to any Company or individual."
