Today, I’d like to share the recording of a pronunciation training I hosted a few months ago. I know many of you weren’t able to attend the live session, so I decided to share the recording with you today. In this lesson, you’ll learn which sounds are the most challenging to pronounce in Brazilian Portuguese and how you can improve your pronunciation. I’ve divided the lesson into two parts. First, we’ll talk about the sounds that are most challenging for English speakers, and then we’ll cover the sounds that are most challenging for Spanish speakers. But of course, this lesson is recommended for learners with any native language. ... Learn Portuguese with us!

I recorded a video to share the news and explain why I decided to pursue a doctorate. Although today’s topic isn’t the Portuguese language, the video is entirely in Portuguese, so it’s great for listening practice! Also, if you’re curious to learn more about my experience as a master’s student and now a doctoral student in applied linguistics, I think you’ll enjoy this video.
