WE KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO START…

Especially to start learning a new language. Our students often get frustrated complaining that Portuguese doesn’t seem to make any sense. But that’s because they keep comparing it to English, and perhaps so do you, right?

THIS GUIDE IS FOR YOU IF:

You think in English most of the time and Portuguese language usually feels nonsensical.
You keep postponing learning Portuguese because… well, everyone in Portugal speaks English, isn’t it?
Frustration settles in when you realize you don’t get to know as many locals as you’d like to and you’re missing most of the cultural aspects because you don’t speak the language.

If you can relate, then this guide is the trigger you need to get started or get ahead! Portuguese is a complex language but to learn it can be quite amusing.

Give it a try!

Our experience has been showing that foreigners moving in tend to unconsciously create a bubble where they “happily” live in, built up on the false idea that you don’t need to learn Portuguese because most locals speak English. So you end up hanging mostly within expat and nomad circles and missing out the true experience of the country.

Have you also been hiding inside your comfort zone? Get out and start enjoying more by understanding and speaking the language!
