Award tickets for GRU, CGH or GIG next summer?

Flying from SFO or Oakland or San Jose.
I am an absolute newbie when it comes to KVS tool usage.

Are there training videos available to show how to use KVS to find
those pesky awards? I am looking via Awards/M&M and Awards/DL-Skyteam
methods, since I have Lufthansa and Air France miles.

I am looking for a single seat, even though I need 5 ( 2 adults and 3 kids )
which I was going to split to 1+2 & 1 + 1 once I find dates with any awards.

Would like to stay there for 2-2.5 weeks.

Help!!! ;-)
