In this final episode of 2025, I slow down and speak to you in a more personal way. There’s no grammar and no specific vocabulary today — just a moment to pause, reflect on the year, and say thank you. I talk about learning languages, about ups and downs, about growth, and about continuing this journey calmly, without pressure. This episode is an invitation to end the year gently and look ahead to 2026 with curiosity and kindness.
New Words desafio = challenge aprendizagem = learning pressa = rush / hurry caminho = path / journey
More from 🇵🇹 Slow Portuguese With Maria
In this episode, I talk with my student Rory about his Portuguese learning journey. We speak about why he decided to learn Portuguese, his goals with the language, his favorite Portuguese food, and much more. This conversation is also a good reminder that learning a language can be difficult sometimes, but communication is still possible even when we are not perfect. You do not need to speak perfectly to have real conversations and connect with people. If you would like to improve your Portuguese with me, you can also book a lesson at slowportuguesewithmaria.com. I hope you enjoy this conversation!
