Loving the learning studio and the podcasts! By far the best learning tools out there! Also have my mother hooked on the learning studio.

I was unable to find a more advanced language course teaching European Portuguese. Then I discovered a website [Practice Portuguese] teaching European Portuguese. (…) There is much audiovisual content, which is well organised and not too prescriptive. I enjoy its cultural content which includes Portuguese food, travel, customs, folk tales, traditions, lifestyle, etc.

Thank you both so much for creating such a valuable learning resource. What would I do without you?! With your help, learning Portuguese is gradually beginning to seem possible. And somehow you make it such fun. Love you! Keep up the good work!

I love Practice Portuguese and it’s been so great, as I really needed European Portuguese materials. The “disappearing words” video was such a relief when I saw it! My husband is from Lisbon and speaks so fast, and I knew he cut out syllables but after this video it made so much more sense why it was so hard for me to understand at first. (…) Thanks so much for your great work! It makes practicing less intimidating and helping my progress with the language.

I really like the learning studio, most of all because it will improve my listening skills in Portuguese, which at the moment are jaw droppingly abysmal.
Many thanks for responding so quickly it gives the site a really personal feel.

It was completely by chance that I stumbled upon your Podcast on iTunes, which led me here to your site. I must say that I am very impressed. This is everything I have been looking for, both as a resource to improve my Portuguese, as well as to share with other people I know who want to learn. I plan on showing this to my family in the coming days, so you can fully expect a subscription or two from us!

I am such a fan of your podcast! It has kept me motivated, challenged and entertained along my Portuguese learning journey. I get so excited when a new episode is released, particularly as there are so few resources available for those of us learning European Portuguese. Thank you!

Practice Portuguese é exatamente o que eu estava à procura: textos com uma grande variedade de assuntos, entrevistas, conversas, artigos etc. e sobretudo a possibilidade de treinar o ouvido . Entender o português falado é realmente difícil. Ouço infinitamente os episódios e notei que surte efeito e – graças ao humor – sempre divertido.
Muito obrigado por todas as iniciativas e esforços!

Firstly thank you for your brilliant resources. As we are living in Portugal full time it is really important that we learn the language as quickly as possible and most of the resources out there are Brazilian so it is great to find so many great resources in one place.

Thank you and keep up the good work. I am lucky enough to have a guy from Lisboa that I speak Portuguese with for a couple of hours once a fortnight. Between that and the fact that my Italian is pretty reasonable and using your excellent site I am already at the stage of being able to understand a lot of writen Portuguese. Your site is really most useful to me for the spoken language. (…) Muito obrigado.

My wife and I (…) just arrived in Lisbon. I’m already realizing how helpful it has been to listen to your podcasts in the car these past few months. Portuguese speakers are so disrespectful toward syllables, smashing them together and eliding them in ways that make it very difficult for foreigners to understand. Having your podcasts handy has really helped us disentangle the spoken language. Thank you!

Just wanted to take a second to say how much I enjoy the podcasts, videos and web content that you’ve made. This is the third language I’ve learned and I wish there had been something like this when I was slogging through French. (Who am I kidding? I’m still slogging through French.)

OMG that massive verbs section is amazing! I was just thinking, “how come it’s SO HARD to learn verbs in a foreign language?” Meaning, everyone wants to teach you clothing and food and crap, but no one ever just grinds through the most important thing: verbs. Thanks for continuing to be awesome!

I just discovered Practice Portuguese and it’s exactly what I’m looking for! I’m a huge believer in mass input (listening/reading) in language learning. Practice Portuguese gives you the chance to engage with the language in context through articles and conversations, which is extremely important. Two thumbs up!

First of all, I would love to thank you for doing such an incredibly amazing job at making learning Portuguese so much easier for me and many, many other people, I’m sure. I’ve struggled for the longest time to find some learning materials that would be easily understandable and accessible, but there’s not a lot of out there. So finding you guys on youtube was super lucky! Your content is great, easily understandable (especially for a non-native English speaker like me) and it is fun! So thank you again for that. You have not only helped me get back into learning Portuguese (…), but it has also inspired me to try some teaching of my own.
