How does it work?
This isn’t a grammar-heavy, academic course.
It’s a listening transformation method built for real life in Portugal — where people speak fast, mumble, drop syllables, and expect you to just get it.
Instead of memorizing more rules, you’ll train your brain to decode native Portuguese in real time.
See inside the course — here’s exactly what you get:
Not just theory.
Not just exercises.
You’ll get a complete system that helps you listen, understand, and respond in real Portuguese — step by step.

Basic A2 level is recommended to get the most benefit from this course.
But if you've already started learning European Portuguese and you've noticed that in real life the Portuguese speak differently from your textbook or teacher and you have trouble using what you've already learned because you don't understand the Portuguese, then this course will help you.
What you'll learn here is something that many intermediate and advanced learners lack and which causes them a lot of frustration and stress.
So, if you're willing to learn and want to avoid that and learn how the Portuguese really speak, this course is for you.
What's more, each example sentence will have the translation in English underneath
We focus exclusively on bridging the gap between textbook Portuguese and real-world speech, on listening comprehension, with specific emphasis on the unique aspects of real ife European Portuguese pronunciation.
As soon as you join the course, you will have access to the first 2 modules. The others will be released in the following weeks. This will prevent you from feeling overwhelmed by the large amount of new information you're about to learn. What's more, the lessons are short and aimed at the same goal.
Yes, you can. But you need to consider a few things:
The course has no grammar or vocabulary explanations because the focus is on listening comprehension. You won't understand sentences that have grammar and vocabulary you haven't learned yet. However, each example sentence will have its English translation underneath. And you can translate the sentences.
But the most important thing is that you focus on listening and being able to identify the sequence of sounds, and the sounds that change and vanish, understanding what they mean or not.
So, basic level A2 is recommended to get the most out of this course.
Besides, if you've already started learning European Portuguese and you've noticed that in real life Portuguese people speak differently from your textbook or teacher and you find it difficult to use what you've already learned because you don't understand Portuguese, then this course will help you.
What you'll learn here is something that many intermediate and advanced students lack and which causes them a lot of frustration and stress.

Its a self-paced course. This means that you can watch the lessons within the course at your own pace and you can organize your study plan as best suits you, according to the time you have available per day, per week, etc. As long as you have internet access, you can watch the video lessons as often as you like, whenever you like, on your computer or cell phone.
Here's how our course helps you to finally crack the code of real European Portuguese!
When you join, you'll immediately get access to our "Start Here" module (think of it as your roadmap!) plus your first two learning modules. I'll release the rest week by week so you can digest everything properly without feeling overwhelmed.
I've designed the course to tackle the biggest hurdle most learners face - understanding why Portuguese sounds so different in real life! You'll learn to spot those sneaky patterns where vowels shrink and letters seem to vanish in everyday speech.
In the introductory module you'll learn the difference between listening and hearing and how it makes all the difference. Then, you'll finally learn why it's so difficult to understand European Portuguese and why writing is so different from speaking. The next module has simple sentences at different speeds to train your ear, plus explanation on what’s happening. Then, as you build confidence, you'll graduate to real dialogues and monologues. It's like learning to swim - first in the shallow end, then gradually moving deeper!
The best part? This isn't about textbook-perfect Portuguese. It's about understanding Portuguese as it's actually spoken on the streets.
We're here to bridge that frustrating gap between classroom Portuguese and real-life conversations, one ear-training exercise at a time!
If you are at the A2 level and follow the instructions as they are in the course, you will probably notice those exciting “I got it!” moments in the first month, with even greater advances in the third month.

Or they waste time trying to “guess” what natives are saying.

Olá! I'm Sara!
I help people live their lives in Portuguese with the Portuguese—and thrive!
With 10 years of teaching European Portuguese, I’ve had the joy of working with students from over 60 countries.
I’m from Lisbon, married to my Neguinho (the most amazing Brazilian guy ever 🇧🇷❤️🇵🇹), and we speak Portuguese, English, and Spanish.
I created this course because I saw that it was a very specific need for all my students but also for other people who learn European Portuguese, including foreign friends of mine. And I thought I had to do something about it and this is how this online course was born.
