Comments about Port (Euro) Phase 1, Unit 01-05:
Wonderful course, albeit short. I feel like I can make it through a day in Portugal now. Very handy since most Portuguese materials are for Brazilian Portuguese. I'm learning to get in touch with my ancestral Portugal, not Brazil. A thousand thanks.

The product is easy to use, and when used as advised (a unit a day) it is very effective. The content is well organized and progresses at a good pace. The actors are engaging and there is enough variety that boredom is avoided.

Comments about Port (Euro) Phase 1, Unit 01-05:
I didn't need to use the Portuguese that I learned from the five lessons, because most people I encountered spoke some English. However, I felt better being able to say a few polite phrases, such as Good morning and Thank you. Unlike Italian, which I have studied, Portuguese is often not phonetic. It sometimes sounds like Russian to me because of the frequent shch sounds.
I like the option of downloading a few lessons for a short vacation to another country.
