Omg, she is fantastic. I’m an English professor in the States, and this young lady is perfect for learning Portuguese. By far the best channel

[@portuguesewithmaria]

😍😅 Thank you so much, dear! If there's any kind of content you would like to see here, please do let me know.

[@richdb1115]

"a" or "an" English professor?

[@jph7957]

@@richdb1115 "A English professor in the States" / "An English professor / teacher in the UK". ;)

[@noahsmith9288]

We say “an” English professor in the states too. We would never say “a” English professor - it sounds wonky. I think this was a typo. 😊

[@jenniferknight5055]

A professor...a PhD in a university? Ok. If so, you're "an English" professor, and this young lady is perfect for "teaching" Portuguese because she already know how to speak it. Probably typos, eh? But to your first point, she well and truly is fantastic.

[@vahiuddinxec9509]

I am from Goa which was ruled by Portuguese until 1961. My parents did speak Portuguese and many families speak Portuguese here. That's why I was attracted to Portuguese language besides English.

[@allan.valerion]

Well,I am not gonna lie, these lessons are really helpful,fun and easy to remember. I believe you'll keep making more content on European Portuguese...and once again I thank you for this and thank you in advance for the upcoming videos🙏🙏

Hey, Allen, I'm so glad you find the content useful! 😊 Thank you so much for the kind words and support, it means a lot!

Passport para português Maria. Your videos with repetition I am finding really helpful and our teacher said that they are excellent. Thank you

[@portuguesewithmaria]

@Brian Cusworth Olá, Brian, many thanks to you and your professor. :) I know that material, and to answer your previous question, yes, I will be posting videos for level A2. If you have any specific requests, questions, doubts, please feel free to post them here and I will make a video on it. 😊

[@briancusworth]

@@portuguesewithmaria thank you Maria I look forward to watching them. I find it really difficult even though we have been learning Portuguese for several years. Brian

[@portuguesewithmaria]

@@briancusworth Is English your mother tongue? It is quite challenging, but the key is being exposed enough to the language. Fluency comes with time, not over night, don't be discouraged and always look for ways to implement what you learn in the classes.

[@kerrynwright]

Thank you so much for these excellent videos that are helping me to learn Portuguese at age 63!! My Portuguese friend left Portugal to move to Canada when she was 9, so she said she was rusty on her Portuguese, but she's finding these videos helpful too. It's a treat to be able to practice what I've learnt with her. As an ex-teacher, I really appreciate the excellent presentation of each lesson with it written on the screen too. I'm also thankful for your very clear pronunciation so that I can hear it clearly & see where your tongue is etc for each sound. I'm going through the videos very slowly so I easily have a year's worth of lessons to keep me learning! Thank YOU, Maria! 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨

[@portuguesewithmaria]

This really made my day, sorry for the late reply, the comment got swamped, I didn't notice it. Keep up the good work, and please do not hesitate to reach out if I can help with anything. :)

[@kerrynwright]

@@portuguesewithmaria That's awesome! My Portuguese friend was visiting me today & helped me with some pronunciation of numbers! She enjoyed seeing some of the grammar you taught on another video that she didn't learn as a child. 🥰Blessings from South Australia 💕🐨

[@portuguesewithmaria]

@@kerrynwright😃🥰 what do you plan to learn next? 😊 🌻

[@kerrynwright]

@@portuguesewithmaria I'm going in the order of your beginner level A1 lessons. So this week (week 9 of term 1 for Aussies) is lesson 9: numbers 101 - 1,000,000. Next week is another short week due to Easter holidays (Aussies have Easter Friday & Easter Monday holidays) so I'll be learning colours next week. Due to my illnesses including chronic fatigue I have a bit of a "teflon brain" so nothing sticks so I'm only doing 1 lesson per week & going slowly!!! Despite that I'm remembering more than I expected & I'm using flash cards to help myself. 🥰Blessings from South Australia💕🐨

[@jessedavidschell6492]

Thank you for presenting the rules for using (or not using) the definite article with the names of countries. Now I understand how it works.

[@portuguesewithmaria]

No problem! Actually, some grammars say that there is no fixed rule for using the prepositions with toponyms, so you can see for example: na África / em África, but for these introduced in the vídeo, we do know if we should/shouldn't use the article.
