Really good structure

I really think that the course is amazing and has a really good structure for people completely new to the language as well as for intermediate, but also is very well organized for people who don’t have their own learning plan or idea of how to manage it.
Nothing useful until I found you

I cannot say how glad I am to have found this app together with your wonderful little films on YouTube and the podcasts I can listen to when I cannot look on a display. For a whole year I tried to find a way to learn (and practise) European Portuguese and found nothing useful until I found you. Living in Germany, I can’t just talk to Portuguese people to train my listening because there are none… Your explanations are so thoughtful when someone has a question, and the whole thing is structured in the best way I can imagine.

It’s really perfect for me right now to review and establish my current level for listening and speaking to try to catch them up and improve. I was a foreign language textbook writer/editor for 17 years and really love what you and the PP team have put together here!

Opens the door culturally

Muito muito obrigada for all these new videos and podcasts over the last few months. I especially enjoy the combo of Joel plus a native speaker (Rui or guests 😊) as I’m very inspired by how well Joel speaks and he opens the door culturally (coming from a fellow North American) and asks the kind of questions I’d like to ask myself.

I’ve lived in Portugal for eleven years now, and although I can function here in society using my Portuguese … I am already seeing that even your earliest lessons can fill gaps in my knowledge or usefully reinforce things. It looks like your program will be a great help to fulfill my obligation to my companheira to master her language better … Thank you very much for this excellent resource with comprehensible input to use at beginning and intermediate levels. You have done many people a great service with this!

I had the pleasure of visiting Portugal exactly one year ago today and fell in love with your amazing country. To prepare for that trip, I’d tried to teach myself Portuguese with DuoLingo and Rosetta Stone but sadly was very surprised when I got to Portugal and realized how different so much of the vocab and the accents are! I was determined to come home and learn European Portuguese, so while that meant much starting over from the beginning, I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to have found your wonderful website & app (I’m also listening to your podcast as I type this!). To my knowledge, you’re the only people providing such detailed & helpful resources specific to European Portuguese (I especially appreciate the detailed language lessons that come with each unit–something that’s very hard to find with any other language learning site!).

The best thing since sliced pão!

This app is the best thing since sliced pão! I have tried others that advertised Portuguese but it was always Brazilian. Not to mention how lessons are set up, reviews and all the other features that make Practice Portuguese so much fun! Being French, I am used to gender and different verb endings. But pronunciation is a whole other ball game. Bravo! Obrigada!
I can’t get over the quality

I can’t get over the quality of the program – not only the effectiveness of the teaching methodology, but how much thought has gone into anticipating and answering questions. It’s very impressive. On top of that, the responsiveness of you and your team is remarkable.
Best possible online program
posted: Januar 22, 2024
Name: Jon
I firmly believe that your program is the best possible online program for self-study and far surpasses everything else that is out there. Your curriculum is good, the lesson size is good, explanations are great, the stories/dialogues are wonderful and inventive and the smart review makes it possible for students to master and use what they learn. … Whatever you do, keep up the great work. Thanks to working daily with your program for sixteen months, the first online tutor I tried out didn’t know what to do with me.

For Christmas I made a list for everything I am thankful this year. And your App is a huuuuuge point on that list. I came here to study and was afraid because every single lecture is in Portuguese.

Real Portuguese

By the way your site is fantastic!!! It is perfect for my style of learning and it is full of real Portuguese. … The most useful thing on your site is where you have a short video of somebody saying a phrase naturally. It really helps to mimic the lip and mouth movements and shapes. It is short so it can be copied and practiced. That is great!

Your program is very well structured and engaging. The interactive nature is great as one progresses from level to level adding grammar and vocabulary, loved it! The listening part is key for passing the test!!! Thanks for helping us pass the exam! We would highly recommend your program to anyone
