How you learn in Portuguese in Record Time
Many courses still insist on teaching languages focusing primarily on grammar, writing and memorizing vocabulary lists.
But I need to tell you the truth… these obsolete approaches won’t help you to speak a language effectively.
Why? Because they don’t focus on what really matters: listening and speaking.
They give you the false impression that you “know” some Portuguese, but guess what happens when you need to interact with Brazilians in the real world… You get lost!
Totally different from other courses, Portuguese in Record Time provides you a fast and efficient learning through a lot of listening, speaking and approaches that really work.
Testimonials
Ricardo spents a lot of time really getting into pronunciation, which made me feel like I was already making great progress right from the beginning. I am more confident already! Kevin Winebold – New York, USA.
I tried to learn Portuguese from two online language apps for a week or two but I got frustrated when I couldn’t get the pronunciation right and there was no one to ask.
I found Ricardo who had extensive experience in languages and online learning. He answered all my questions in a clear and constructive way. As a teacher, he is patient and always ready to give that little extra. Kenneth Ingelsson – Skåne, Sweden.
I initially began learning Portuguese through one of the online language apps prior to learning with Ricardo. Although I had learned some basic vocabulary and greetings, I felt that I wasn’t really learning to speak or understand what I heard. With Ricardo my experience was immensely enjoyable and I could feel myself improving all the time.
The course fulfilled its promise of learning Portuguese quickly given my time constraints with work and availability. I couldn’t have expected to learn any faster unless I were living in Brazil. Daniel Lynch – Saint Paul, USA.
Ricardo explains everything well and answers my questions clearly. He’s always patient and pleasant. Scott Warren – Columbia, USA .
I was studying Portuguese for several years on and off but without practice and much dedication. So I knew grammar but didn’t have any practice and couldn’t use the grammar and couldn’t talk properly. Then, I found Ricardo. All his classes are perfectly structured and organized.
The lessons are divided into topics and each topic completely covers the necessary vocabulary, plus explains new grammar. Then, I caught myself thinking that at some point I started completely understand what Ricardo was saying. I love structured lessons and structured explanations of the language, which helped me to learn easily and with fun! Anya Mikhaylova – Moscow, Russia.
I have tried many teachers prior Ricardo and definitively he’s the best! Good lessons, fun, very focus, and helpful. I recommend him very much. Patricia Ibarra – Miami, USA.
