Pick where you want to start

What this is for
- 01
Handle a café, a station, and a phone call without switching to English.
- 02
Give an opinion, tell a story in the past, and write a clear message.
- 03
Keep up with a show at native speed — and argue a point, not recite a list.
Why a path, not a playlist
A phrasebook gets you through a menu. A path gets you through a conversation, then a news story, then work. Each band is its own course. Later ones do not reteach A1.
Everyday spoken Portuguese here is Brazilian. European forms show up when they would actually matter. Already past beginner? Test out of a band in one sitting.
