One of the smartest ways to improve fluency is to listen to stories in your chosen language.

Each story is around 300 words, making them very quick listens without overwhelming you. Crafted for beginners, this is ideal for newcomers who are trying to approach fluency in a natural way.

Rapidly Learn New Vocabulary

Classes often emphasize the most proper way of speaking and writing a language, but that’s rarely found with native speakers. These stories will help you learn how Portuguese is commonly written and conveyed with natural dialogues and expressions. Following each story is a list of interesting words used in the story along with an English translation. No more reaching for a Portuguese-to-English dictionary when encountering uncommon words.

Grasp the Grammar

Each story has a mixture of simple dialogue, descriptive sentences, and everything in-between. This allows you to pick up how sentences are commonly written along with how to describe scenery, items, and people, giving you an overall and detailed way of understanding the written language.

Not very relevant.

I found the stories quite odd. If you're a brit going to Portugal then it may be your "cup of tea". If you're an American with wanderlust who wants to travel through Brazil with your hot Brasilera wife it's probably not sure for you. I wanted relevant conversations. For instance a story about going to a churrasqueira would be nice. Instead you hear about making scones and going to Disneyland Paris. The Portuguese is good, but the English speaker has a certain way of speaking...it got on my nerves. It's not awful, but isn't worth a credit. Just one man's opinion.
