South Africa and Its Culture
South Africa is a destination that blends adventure, learning, and diversity in every detail. Known as the “Rainbow Nation,” the country brings together African, European, and Asian cultures, reflected in its music, cuisine, spirituality, and the warm hospitality of its people. Cities like Cape Town and Johannesburg are modern, vibrant, and well-equipped to welcome international students. Plus, the landscapes are breathtaking—safaris, beaches, and stunning mountain views.

Courses and Programs
South Africa offers affordable and well-recognized English courses, perfect for those looking to improve their language skills in a multicultural setting. Classes are dynamic and designed to encourage interaction with students from all over the world.
Visa
For short-term courses (up to 90 days), Brazilian students can enter as tourists. For longer stays, a student visa is required, with a simple and straightforward application process.
Work
While studying, the student visa does not allow formal employment. However, the country’s low cost of living and favorable currency exchange make it a budget-friendly and practical choice for Brazilians.

Testimonial
Jonattas Eller
I’m incredibly thankful to the entire WTS team for the amazing experience I had in South Africa. I was well taken care of from start to finish. I always thought an exchange would be memorable—but I didn’t expect it to leave such a mark. Now that I’m back to my everyday life, I just close my eyes and relive the amazing moments I had during those 7 weeks in South Africa. Cape Town is simply incredible, guys! It’s so worth it. One thing I know for sure now: I want to travel more and more!
