I started choosing 100 verbs and writing each one in a 5"x7" card. Then I organized them according to their frequency - only by logic - and ordered them in a hug, which I kept under my bed. (That was my first computer! :)
All of a sudden, wind came from nowhere and shuffled all of them, destroying my work of days! Guess what? I started it all over again.
Long story short, that first attempt helped me to see that there are many ways of learning a foreign language. And now you can discover it on your own, too!

10 sentences in Portuguese help you improve your communication skills. Each one is finished by a slash (/).
Replace the word in bold by one of the words after the slash and repeat the phrase out loud. Do it until you feel confident with each one. (See the ‘Answer Key’ right below)
They are divided into 'Write in Portuguese' and 'Translate'. Whenever you need, check the Answer Key and Glossary for a quick recall.
It brings the answers to the Exercises, as well as the sentences from the ‘Practice’ section written in English.
Print them out, give them to a friend and take turns: after one reads a sentence in English, the other says it in Portuguese in a progressive way. Here’s how to start:
Your friend: I like.
You: Eu gosto.
Your friend: I like to speak.
You: Eu gosto de falar.
Your friend: I like to speak Portuguese.
You: Eu gosto de falar Português.
Your friend: I like to speak Portuguese with my father.
You: Eu gosto de falar Português com meu pai.
