What is the best way to learn European Portuguese?


Learning a language is a bit like starting a workout routine.

Just as you’d begin exercising with simple stretches, when learning a language, it’s essential to start with the basics.

Imagine your first week at the gym – you wouldn’t immediately run a marathon or lift heavy weights. Similarly, diving into complex language material too soon can be overwhelming. Progress is about pacing yourself, like going to the gym a few times a week rather than straining yourself once a week. Consistency is key – make it a habit.

Think of your brain as a muscle. Starting with heavy mental “weights” might make you never want to learn a language again! Take it in small, manageable steps. Consistency is crucial, building on a foundation and keeping the learning process steady.

Our courses are designed to give you the ‘foundation’ and ‘cornerstones’ for building your language skills. It’s like constructing a house – you start with a strong foundation, not the roof or windows. To learn a language well, you need a solid foundation, and our course helps you work on the essentials a little bit every day.
Are you thinking of taking the CIPLE exam but need a precourse to start? Entering into a government course can be overwhelming unless you have a good grasp of grammar – these courses will ease you into the grammar and give you a good foundation. Think of it as a foundation course and a stepping stone to secure your success in the next level.
I recommend the Intensive Beginners Course for this.
