I started as an absolute beginner…and I’ll share exactly how it worked for me. I took on the challenge of completing the full Michel Thomas Total Portuguese course to see what happened. There are plenty of good reviews on Amazon (the Spanish course scores an average of 4.3 stars). Over time, you’re encouraged to use the phrases you’ve learned as building blocks to create longer sentences.
Michel Thomas courses are all in audio, and you learn by pausing the audio and translating the teacher’s spoken phrases into the target language.
