[@erictrzaska5771]

Just finished the first lesson, I've been married to a Brazilian for 14 years and understand a bit but never able to speak it these lessons truly help

[@Sorryn0tsorryxo]

This is by far the best tutorial I've come across for learning ANY new language. Your teaching style, and the way you format and edit the video is beyond superb. Your voice, energy, and presence is also top-notch. You deserve much praise and support for your work. Keep it up. And THANK YOU :)

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

I appreciate it Zach, thank you! Hope you will find the other videos on the channel helpful on your Portuguese journey as well!

[@Gemminttrading]

I owe almost all of my knowledge of the Portuguese language to Andrew! Thank you

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

You just made my day :) thanks!!!

[@billyotieno7058]

I like how you are teaching the Portuguese language. I'm a Kenyan 🇰🇪🇰🇪 learning Portuguese because I just love it. And I must confess that you are the best with how you are doing it with baby steps. Muito Obrigado profesor

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

I appreciate it, obrigado!!

[@Nickieeder]

Im married to brazilian and i lived in brazil now. And its hard to communicate to his family and to other people. . Thank you sooo much, i learned today❤

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

I appreciate it, glad you learned something new!

[@johnmcmanus8764]

I speak several European languages well but find spoken Brazilian Portuguese very difficult to understand. I'm off to Brasil again soon so I'm very pleased to have found these lessons.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Thank you and glad to be a part of your Portuguese journey!!

[@ajitkakirde1386]

I'm indian and loved the way you teach

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

I appreciate it, thank you!!

[@alisha5213]

I really loved the format of this video! Breaking down the words, allowing the audience to say the word phrase before repeating it twice and showing real life examples. It was really helpful! I’d appreciate more videos like this ! Thank you!

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Great, thank you for the feedback! More will come!!

[@fernandezjunior4724]

I’m a native Spanish speaker and I always wanted to learn Portuguese, obrigado professor eu vou fazer muito mais coisas para aprender.

[@chantalharte2080]

Really good! Clear, slow - excellent way to learn the pronunciation right. Glad I stumbled on that!

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Glad you enjoyed it Chantal! Working on a follow up lesson to this so stay tuned!

[@ekaterinanguyen5668]

From a language teacher: this is brilliant.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

[@surxo6643]

Thank you very much Andrew! Very helpful, very productive and natural way to learn Portuguese! Well done! You have a talent for teaching! Keep doing these videos! Wish you to get mls of followers for this channel!

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! 😃

[@tombernard4612]

This is by far the best video I have ever seen or listened to on pronunciation in a foreign language. Several years ago (before the Internet and KZbin) when tutoring German for English speakers , I would explain the placement on where the tip of the tongue should be in relation with the back of the teeth and the roof of the mouth. Something I came up with on my own to help English speakers.... Now I guess I kind of feel justified in my idea all those years ago. Excellent video thank you so much!!

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Thank you so much for that, I'm glad you found it useful!!

[@actingwithalli]

The best, most clear video I’ve seen!! Thank you, my Brazilian husband and I speak Portuguese exclusively to our toddler and I need to improve☺️ Would love to see more content! Thank you for all you do!

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Awesome Alli! I just posted lesson 10, so there's another 4 hours of content in this series :) And I love that you guys are making a conscious effort to raise a bilingual child!!

[@Sasha-u3c9j]

Olá from Jamaica and thank you so much for this lesson! I just decided to learn Portuguese and this was such an engaging and fun way to start my Portuguese-learning journey! I can't wait to see what else your channel has to offer.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Great to have you hear Sasha and congrats on starting your Portuguese journey! Would love to visit Jamaica one day...pleasantly surprised by how many people watching from Jamaica! :)

[@wilfredoperez2187]

Sim. Eu quero aprender muito mais. Yes. I like that you make a distinction between English, Spanish and Brazilian pronunciation. Since I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, your tutorial helps a lot.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Obrigado Wilfredo!! More to come..

[@sbjan1979]

Very nice and easy way to learn 🎉🎉🎉

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Glad you thought so Saleem!

[@TheVoicebody]

I teach English to adults from many other countries, and I really appreciate your method, particularly how you teach phoneme pronunciation

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Thank you so much, I appreciate it!!

[@Winnerfeel]

Oh, muito obrigada 🥰 It’s perfect … learning pronunciation step by step is exactly what I need in the beginning. I have tried many other KZbin videos on pronunciation, but I haven’t found anything this good. I started studying Portuguese with Duolingo a couple of months ago. I have gained vocabulary from there, but it’s not enough for comprehensive learning of the language. I’m going to continue my journey with you, porque eu quero aprender português e eu gosto muito da língua, é linda 💚💛💙🤍

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

so glad to hear that! I'll be here to support you on your Portuguese journey!

[@watchnoface8770]

THIS IS EXCELLENT STUFF, THANK YOU!! Very helpful and makes it much easier to start learning the formulas and principles and linking the words and phrases into sentences.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Great to hear you liked it!

[@jhicksbo]

Love the channel. More of these videos. Your beginning series and the celebrity breakdowns have been a big help learning and practicing proper pronunciation. Thx Andrew! Keep up the good work

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

[@bluemoon1012]

omg you're a natural at teaching

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

I appreciate it!!

[@sedakabil93]

Ola! Due to my job, I’ve been to São Paulo five times, and each time, I was impressed by the nature and the way people communicate with each other. I want to be in Brazil again next year for the Rio Carnival, and it would be great to speak a little Portuguese by then. That's why I'm here. I'm Turkish. I was really struggling with pronunciation and was a bit worried that I wouldn’t be able to learn it, but after watching many other videos, coming across this one eased my mind. Because I think pronunciation is the most important aspect. Thank you for helping each of us on our journeys. Greetings from Turkey.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Oi Seda, so glad to have you here and congrats on starting your Portuguese journey! Yes, you'll see throughout the series that I place a huge emphasis on teaching pronunciation in a simple, step-by-step approach. Thanks for your message and I'll be here to support you! Çok teşekkürler

[@adrianhughes1737]

Yes more of these please 😊 Learning how to pronounce the different letters is really helpful too. Muito obrigado cara !

[@toddly1133]

Dude! You are an AWESOME teacher! I love listening to you and learning. The way you taught me (and others) how to pronounce the words by placing my tongue in certain spots and to feel the air come out a certain way when I was practicing speaking it - WOW! That's *MUITO lindo* e útil.! And Yes I had to use _Google Translate_ to translate the last part of that sentence, but using it helps a lot too. 😎👍
