Academia de Línguas da Madeira
The Academia de Línguas da Madeira, ALM, a cultural association founded in 1976, recognised by the local Board of Education, is the oldest language school in the Autonomous Region of Madeira. The main school is in the Centre of Funchal, a friendly seaside city with many interesting places to visit and lots of things to do. We have branches in Machico, Santa Cruz and Estreito de Câmara de Lobos. The ALM is a school for people of all ages, with different departments for children (under 10), juniors (10 to 13) and teenagers/adults. Although we are a large school (15 classrooms), the atmosphere is very friendly. We are proud of our staff that offers individual attention and support to every student. Our reasonable prices offer you good value for money with generous discounts for long term students. ALM has one aim and purpose: to ensure that students get the best possible language learning experience.

About Funchal, Madeira
Funchal (Portuguese pronunciation: [fũˈʃaɫ]), population 100,526[1], is the chief city of Madeira Island and the capital and largest city of the Madeira Autonomous Region, Portugal.
With its neighbouring boroughs (municipalities) of Camara de Lobos, Santa Cruz, Machico and Ribeira Brava the town has over 150,000 inhabitants. It is the most populous Portuguese city outside mainland Portugal. The Funchal conurbation includes the cities of Funchal, Câmara de Lobos, Caniço and Santa Cruz, all on the south side of Madeira.
Funchal lies in a natural “amphitheatre”, with gentle slopes beginning at the harbour and rising almost 1200 metres. This provides a natural shelter that attracted the first settlers. Funchal is a cosmopolitan and panoramic city, with parks, shops and hotels.
