Connect English is excellent school. You should go here. The prices is cheaper than most schools, but the teachers are better. I took 3 months of toefl classes and I passed my test after I studied here. I dont think i would pass without their help. They didn't have too many brazilians, so it had a good mixture of students from the world. The excursions to other parts of california and san diego were really fun too. And most of the staff speaks portuguese if you need help!
