Tendoria

Tendoria is an international education consultancy advising families relocating to Portugal and Spain on the right school for their children, aged 2 to 18. On its own website, Tendoria states it covers the Lisbon and Porto regions, the Algarve and the Silver Coast in Portugal, plus Barcelona in Spain, with more Spanish cities planned. The service is bespoke and paid, going beyond what a relocation agent or estate agent typically offers, and covers American, British, French, IB, Portuguese, Spanish, Montessori and Waldorf curricula. The consultancy, whose Google reviews credit consultant Nathalie by name, helps families understand different schooling systems, assesses academic and pastoral quality, explains extracurricular provision, and builds an application strategy for schools where places can be hard to secure. It also advises on university admissions and offers tutoring and coaching. Tendoria holds a 5.0-star rating from 17 Google reviews and has been featured in the Financial Times, The Telegraph, The Portugal News and Wherever Magazine. Tendoria works remotely with families across its coverage area rather than from a single walk-in office, reachable by phone, WhatsApp or email. Its Instagram bio currently references Lisbon, Cascais and Madrid rather than the Algarve by name, but the Algarve is explicitly listed as a covered region on the company's own website.
