Practice Portuguese (www.practiceportuguese.com) is a web based subscription site for learning European Portuguese. They have podcasts you can listen to and a Learning Studio, which is pretty fun. Practice Portuguese is having a sale for the New Year for 15% off that is for the Podcast and Learning Studio together (Premium package) fo*r* * €10.20 (reg: €12.00) a month. *(About $11.63 USD or $15.68 CAN) a month. I don't know how your personal credit card will handle it, as it's billed out of Lisbon. At any rate, you can do it for one month or a few months. You can cancel at any time. The sale ends around 12 noon PST on Friday. A couple of their Podcasts are available on You Tube here: https://www.youtube.com/user/PracticePortuguese A sample of their Learning Studio where you can play around is here: https://www.practiceportuguese.com/learning-studio-sample/ I think this link fills in the 15% off, but I'm not sure (the code is NEWYEAR15OFF) https://www.practiceportuguese.com/signup/practice-portuguese-premium/?coupon=NEWYEAR15OFF If not, try this (with NEWYEAR15OFF): https://www.practiceportuguese.com/plans/choose-a-plan/ I can forward their email to anyone who is interested. Drop me an email at gfscherim at gmail.com Other companies and web sites and learning modules exist too. However, these guys are having a sale and I'd thought I'd pass it on.
