I just wanted to drop you all a note and congratulate you on a great program, on the tremendous website / app / and content. I was a University Professor for 34 years – and my ‘minor’ on my PhD was in Curriculum Design … I’ve spent most of my adult life teaching and trying to convey thoughts and content to adults, and you guys blow it out of the water! Everyday, I’m so impressed by the level of education that you provide. It is obvious that all of you are serious, committed, and thoughtful about your program.

Many thanks to you and the PP team: in my European Portuguese learning quest, I’ve tried nearly every resource out there, and PP is the only one I’ve been consistently happy with over the two years and know I will continue to use and enjoy. Great team and great learning resource!

Thank you for the great service you provided and for how much I learned while I was with you. We’ve been in Portugal about three years now, and we’re at the point where we’re somewhat comfortable with the language…Your lessons were invaluable, and certainly helped to accelerate my learning.

I have been trying to learn European Portuguese for probably 3 years now but the first year was slow moving. I’ve tried a handful of other European Portuguese classes/academies but Practice Portuguese makes learning Portuguese so much easier than the other ones out there. I love all the different ways to learn that you guys offer at Practice Portuguese. I love having the two perspectives as well. It has made a tremendous difference. I am (finally) going to Portugal for the first time…I am so excited to be able to practice speaking Portuguese when I’m there.
O melhor que há no que toca à língua portuguesa

Estou a aprender português há quase dois anos. Apaixonei-me pela língua há mais de dez anos, já que os meus pais moravam lá, mas, na verdade, comecei a aprender há um ano e meio.
No dia de ontem, recebi o resultado do meu exame de português, que fiz no mês de novembro, e… passei no exame do DIPLE!!
Isto, em parte, é graças ao vosso projeto, onde aprendi muitas coisas…
Quero dar-vos os parabéns pelo vosso conteúdo e animar-vos a continuar com o vosso projeto, que é, indiscutivelmente, o melhor que há no que toca à língua portuguesa.
Most comprehensive learning platform

Name: Michael
My family and I have recently moved to Portugal…and have invested much time in our Portuguese learning. We subscribed to a popular online/app platform that was helpful. In addition, we are currently taking in person Portuguese classes here in town. However for me, this has been the most comprehensive learning platform I’ve used. The sequential way in which you have structured the lessons along with the multiple modalities of practice reinforces the material in a way that frankly, I have not gotten from the other methods. I am looking forward to my increased progress and just wanted to say thank you again. You all have struck Portuguese gold 🙂

I just literally wanted to say thanks and that I am so grateful to this site. I am preparing to move for work and learning Portuguese in an intensive University program, and with a private Tutor, AND this site in addition to all of that has been completely invaluable and I just want to thank you all for all of the work you do.

I want to say what a great job you’ve done. I’ve gone from zero knowledge to, well, I can construct a few basic sentences! I’m halfway though the A1 course. I like the linear structure, it suits my pragmatic approach to learning.

I…came to Portugal last year when my daughter and her family decided to move here. The day she surprised me with that invitation, I did a Google Search, found you both, and was delighted. I started your program that day, and completed level B2 yesterday. As a former language teacher (30 years- Spanish), I was so happy to follow the lessons that you organized so beautifully and carefully. How can I thank you enough?!
Significant achievement

As an applied linguist…who works in technology and language learning…and as a current student of European Portuguese…I’ve been making extensive use of your app and A1 course and greatly enjoying them. You’ve no doubt heard this before, but language learning apps typically excel in only one or two of three crucial areas: technology, pedagogy, or language/cultural content. Your product stands out by doing an outstanding job with all three, and I’ve been wanting for some time to commend you for this significant achievement.
Read and listen at the same time

I just wanted to send a message of great appreciation, thanking Practice Portuguese for all that you do in supporting people to learn the Portuguese language. I wouldn’t be anywhere near as good as I am now without your help, because there is literally zero material out there which helps people read and listen at the same time to Portuguese. It is so great that you have the English available as well, it makes it so easy to understand what is being said and to look at the meaning of the words. You’ve made language learning simple and not laborious. Please carry on forever!

I really love Joel’s and Rui’s enthusiasm and commitment to helping us learn Portuguese. We…have grandchildren in Lisbon…and we love going to visit them. We need to be able to speak the language as we hope to make frequent trips to Portugal! Thank you.

I subscribed to your website so I could refresh my memory and learn more Portuguese before visiting Porto and Lisboa in September. You have created a wonderful, very helpful website for learning a language, and it helped me very much.

I can’t tell you how much I’ve enjoyed using Practice Portuguese!!! I want to thank you so much for the amazing content and maybe someday (if my wishes come true) we’ll be back and I’ll continue learning this amazing language with your help.
The knowledge really sticks

I have tried a couple of other online sites for learning Portuguese, but even if those sites are quite acceptable and useful, I feel they don’t even come close to how you have structured your learning! The combination of short lessons, informative texts, exercises (written, audio and speech) and the variety and width of the material really force a students brain to practice in a way where the knowledge really sticks in a far more effective way!
You have also added a nice touch with the “gamification” of the learning process, which makes it fun to progress and improve.
I simply felt I could not sit in silence and NOT give you this feedback. You really deserve it.
In my eyes you are REALLY doing your stuff really, really well! Keep up the amazing job!
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.

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!
