I'm excited to share that I'm starting a new project here at Portuguese with Eli. We've decided to combine the Brazilian Chat series with our main podcast for your convenience. This way, if you're one of my students, you'll have access to the transcripts (this one is available in your student area!), and you'll find all the episodes in one place. In our first interview, I'll be chatting with Brigitte. She's an educator, a former sales trainer, and now one of our amazing teachers. During our conversation, you'll come across some interesting expressions, and you can find a list of them in the show notes below. If you're interested in learning more, just click the link for additional information. And if you'd like to have a lesson with Brigitte, you can follow this link: https://tfft.io/Mn4Ekzy

Hey, wise person! Not everybody wants to read the whole description up to this point. And since you have, I've got a small gift for you to show my appreciation. It's a special report that will help you get rid of all frustrations you might have related to the Portuguese verb tenses.

But do it soon. One day without that is one day you'll still get angry at yourself because you don't know how to use the verb tenses in Portuguese.
