Course Description
Hello and welcome to “3 Minute Portuguese - Course 3” The aim of this course is to make Portuguese accessible to anybody regardless of age, educational background or "aptitude" for learning. This course leads on from "3 Minute Portuguese – Courses 1 and 2" and new language structures are introduced to enable you to communicate in more situations when on holiday abroad.
My method for teaching Portuguese is simple but effective. It works for anybody, no matter what your requirements. I have been teaching foreign languages for over ten years and I’ve taught a wide range of students of all ages and backgrounds, including students with learning difficulties, so I know my method is accessible to absolutely anyone, with no exception.
With this course, it’s almost as if you have your very own language tutor at your beck and call. Take it with you wherever you are and have a quick listen to one of the lessons whenever you find yourself with three minutes to spare. You will be amazed at how much your language skills will develop after just a few minutes a day of study. You will start to learn the Portuguese language in a simple, logical and fun way.
You will learn a variety of words that you will learn to put together to form sentences that will be useful in any visit to Portugal or any other Portuguese speaking country, and you'll learn how to put the words together to form sentences, saying exactly what you want.
There is ample opportunity throughout the course to practise what you've learnt, and structured repetition ensures you'll never forget what you've learnt.

Hello, bonjour, hola, hallo, ciao and olá!
I’m Kieran and I’m a language tutor based in the UK, and I also create online courses and write books to make language learning accessible to all.
My books and online courses are based on the method I developed for teaching languages, which I've been using in all my classes for many years. The method will get you speaking quickly, without the struggle normally associated with language learning.
I have created three series of language courses available in French, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese. They're called: '3 Minute Languages', 'Building Structures' and 'Quick Guides'.
I hope you enjoy, and "Happy Learning" :-)

the course is progressing at exactly my learning speed, with sufficient repitition to reinforce new words and not too many new words at once
By Michele Hardam-vanWyk on 10/26/2022
This course is great and I am learning a lot, I just wish the Brazilian Portuguese wasn’t also included in many of the phrases as I find this confusing and would prefer not to hear it while I am learning European Portuguese
By Rosalynn Da Silva on 9/24/2021
Very good match for me. A tiny bit slow and repetitive
By Anonymized User on 4/1/2021
Great how the words and phrases are building up and working in combination. It's all done logically and naturally so that you suddenly have a lot of sentences you can use and interchange.
By Luke De Souza on 11/4/2020
Excellent Course just like one and two of this series. Looking forward to some more advanced series as I love his style of teaching. Makes it so easy to learn.
By George Maslyar on 10/31/2020
A great match. While it may have taken a couple years (I did one course before each trip to Portugal), I am so glad I signed up for this series. And so many extras come with it.
By Anonymized User on 3/22/2020
Muito obrigado Kieran for making Portuguese accessible with your great courses!!! When are publishing course number 4? Se faz favor
By Peter Fielding on 3/20/2020
Very good. There are a couple of missing vocab expansion sheets on your website though. There's no Clothing or Materials in Portuguese.
By Sara Horan on 5/11/2019
I have found the course to be very easy to follow and I am enjoying learning Portuguese from the instructor, Kieran, who I think is excellent. The course is very well paced too.
By Ian Milledge on 2/24/2019
I am learning the language and remembering it well. I spend a little time each day aside from the doing the course going over the words/phrases I have learnt previously. Consequently I am gaining confidence with the language. I am enjoying it.
