20 Hours Of Portuguese

20 Hours Of Portuguese Teddy Nee runs a popular language learning blog called Nees Language Blog. Hes also taking  finished the 2015 New Years Language Challenge to learn Portuguese for the Challenge. Reposted with permission. Original post here.  20 Hours Of Portuguese 20-hour language course is certainly short compared with what many study programs can offer. Imagine that you might spend the whole one hour on learning alphabets and telling people about your name, your hometown, your occupation, etc. in a language course. If you join a course with many students, your learning pace can go only as fast as the slowest student. That might not be efficient for some students. The solution is either to do self-learning or to take a 1-on-1 course. Honestly, I am not a big fan of language class, however, there is an activity called Italki Challenge that looks so interesting that I decided to give it a try. It is about learning any languages in 20 hours and I have just completed it. The Achievement I feel much more confident in speaking Portuguese now compared with before, and I have also proven that I can hold conversation only in Portuguese, not just once but for the entire 20-hour lessons. That is such an amazing experience that I have ever had. Well, of course, I used dictionary sometimes, or asked it in Spanish since my tutor also speaks Spanish, and she is teaching it too. So, if any of you would like to have a Spanish course, you can also contact her. Here is her Italki profile. Besides my tutor, I had also had the chance to speak Portuguese for a while with a Sao Tomean friend. That was my first time speaking Portuguese offline. It certainly gives a different experience when you are speaking face-to-face with a person that stands less than 1 meter from you. After finishing Italki Challenge, I have started to take the learning into a higher level by reading about programming and engineering in Portuguese. The reason is simply because I am working as an IT engineer. Next Challenge? The last Italki Challenge was not the first, so I believe that there will be another Italki Challenge in the near future. I strongly recommend you to take part in it, learn any languages, widen your knowledge, talk with people from the other part of the world, gain experience, and be a world citizen.
