Two more I just heard about:
Buenos Aires - http://www.elebaires.com/
Rio de Janeiro - http://www.puc-rio.br/english/internatio...guese.html
Hey buddy. How much does that Rio program cost?
Here's a similar program in Curitiba through the Universidade Federal do Parana - http://www.celin.ufpr.br/index.html/infor...odalidades
Each course is $880.00 Reais and includes 120 hours of training for 2 months (3 hours a day Mon-Friday). It's a great deal as it's a good business hub 5 hours away from Sao Paulo. The catch is that you need to be in your home country to process your student visa, which includes sufficient funds, criminal record, etc etc.
I talked to Ex-Pats in Curitiba as they said most of the students are business people or employees sent by Asian companies, which is especially important with the growing business relationships between theirs (Japan, China, and Korea) and Latin America.

I don't know too much about Porto Alegre's program though they offer something similar. I do however know that Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (Belo Horizonte) offers this same exact program though the classes are a slower 4 months each instead of 2 meaning you have to pay for more months of rent.
Whatever the case, taking a course through an actual university in Brazil is much cheaper and a better deal than $30.00 per hour from a language institution. Did I also mention a better portfolio builder as well?
