Welcome to Nosso Canto
Portuguese as Heritage Language in Houston/TX
Hello!
Thank you so much for your interest in Nosso Canto. We are happy to share a little more about what we do and how we support families who want their children to experience Brazilian culture and the Portuguese language — even if the parents don’t speak Portuguese themselves.
Nosso Canto is a community-based educational program dedicated to helping children and teens (from early childhood through age 17) learn Portuguese as a heritage language while also connecting with Brazilian culture.
Heritage language is a family’s special language passed down from ancestors, connecting kids to their family history, roots, culture and identity.
What we offer
Weekly in‑person classes in Katy, TX for children ages 3–17, focused on:
Strengthening oral communication
Expanding vocabulary and cultural knowledge
Developing reading comprehension in Portuguese
Advancing writing skills through structured, age‑appropriate activities
Engaging with Brazilian culture through music, stories, games, and hands‑on projects
Online weekly classes for children aged 5+ who live farther away or prefer virtual learning.
Community cultural events, such as free Storytime sessions in Portuguese and a small book fair.
Workshop for children with hands‑on experiences in Brazilian culture
Workshops for parents and educators who want to better understand bilingual development and heritage language learning.
Our approach
Our classes are playful, interactive, and culturally rich. We focus on helping children:
Build confidence using Portuguese
Develop a natural connection to the language
Learn through play, music, stories, and meaningful communication
Understand Brazilian traditions and cultural references in a multicultural environment.
Parents do not need to speak Portuguese for their children to participate. We support families of all backgrounds.
Want to talk?
We would be happy to schedule a no‑obligation call. We can speak in English and answer any questions you may have about your child’s needs, placement, and the best class option.
Our placement process is simple and designed to ensure that each student joins the best program aligned to their needs and interests based on Nosso Canto skills assessment.
Investment: monthly fee $127 for in-person or online lessons
Thank you again for reaching out to us. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
