From Our Listeners
"It's exactly what I've been looking for to learn real Portuguese, including all sorts of slang expressions and the little conversational fillers and cues that are part of normal conversations... I speak three other languages and can say that for me this is one of the best language instructional programs around."
"I've listened to every episode of this podcast and it has helped my Portuguese so much! I've never been to Brazil, but after listening to these episodes, I can now listen to the news in Brazilian Portuguese and mostly understand what's going on!"
"I had a private teacher twice a week for over three years. While this certainly helped me to learn the basics of the language, the effect of this podcast in regard to my listening comprehension is incredible."
