There's
sunlight; you're close to the ocean, fabulous food, and enough wine and cheese
to keep you happy.
But
something is not quite right.
You want
more!
You want to
integrate, immerse and interact with the friendly locals. You want to make
contact easily and truly connect with people. You hope to become part of the
community, perhaps even aspire to build community. After all, Portugal is now
your home.
But how do
you achieve all that?
Suddenly a
lightbulb moment - the missing piece - the LANGUAGE!
You don't
want to rely on others, even though you appreciate the kindness and promptness
that help you in moments of need and confusion. You can't stand the thought of
feeling left out at yet another event or that you might forever be an outsider
in this country you call home. And, as an outsider, it is no surprise that
sometimes you may feel foolish, awkward, or even stupid.
You've had
enough of constantly translating, of feeling stuck. So many people go out of
their way to accommodate your lack of language it is so embarrassing. You don't
want the frustration of going into another shop, finding you don't know how to
say what you want, and settling for the next best thing.
But you
know what you want. You want to speak without hesitation, without thinking everything
through, having easy conversations. Ultimately, to understand and be
understood. It's that simple, isn't it?
If only it
were possible to feel comfortable and confident in Portuguese.
It is, now.
You can express yourself without limits. The Language Unschool offers an
online program specific to European Portuguese with a fresh take on language
learning. Here you will find guidance, accountability, and a safe space to
practice. You will finally see the progress you deserve (if you do the work).
