Why Learn Brazilian Portuguese?
Brazilian Portuguese is the most common variety of the Portuguese language. In Brazil alone, more than 200 million use the language as their first tongue. Brazil is the only South American country with Brazilian Portuguese as the official language. It’s also an officially recognized minority language in Suriname, Columbia, Uruguay, Paraguay, and French Guinea. While distinct from European Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese is mutually intelligible with its Old World root language. A handful of local and regional dialects give the language interesting variety in pronunciation and phrasing. Some of the main dialects include Cearense, Caipira, Mineiro, Central Northeastern, and Gaucho.

Speak Portuguese (Brazilian) with Confidence. Read like a Native.
Through his research, Dr. Pimsleur found that traditional teaching methods like memorizing vocabulary, conjugating verbs, and practicing grammar actually SLOW DOWN your ability to learn Portuguese (Brazilian). He called them the kiss of total silence because they made it nearly impossible to speak the Portuguese (Brazilian) language. It's the reason learning a language feels so difficult, when it should feel totally natural.
It makes sense when you think about it. Have you ever seen a toddler memorizing vocabulary lists? Or picking out parts of speech in a sentence diagram? Of course not. Children learn language the way we were meant to ‐ by listening. That's because we are hardwired to remember sounds and store them in our memory automatically.
It's the same way you pick up a song on the radio. You don't have to study the lyrics or understand musical notes and chords to remember a song. Chances are, if you hear a song once you can sing along the next time you hear it.
