*There are a lot more learning websites out there, but I picked the ones that are, as far as I’m aware, completely free and in my opinion the best/ most useful.

(Free) Brazilian Portuguese Beginner Resource Masterlist

I've seen a lot of posts for European Portuguese, but none for Brazilian, so here we are! All resources are available for free (or at least have free trials.)

The items highlighted in yellow are what I, personally, use and recommend.

The items with asterisks are closer to intermediate level.

I will continue to update with new resources as I discover them. If you have any suggestions, comment or reblog!

some people need to study too often to remember their lessons and write exams. while some others can easily study their syllabus at the last moment and give their exams. some don't take notes, some do. some cannot read their material easily and need help. some can read and analyse a text on their own. there are still infinite number of possibilities when it comes to academia. it's how you choose what's the best for yourself. only you can find out what works for you. not the student next to you or the studyblr you follow.

How to Learn an African Language: Resources

I have been working on a database of resources for learners of African languages. You do not to search manually to find the best resources anymore—this site does it for you.

It includes material for beginner, intermediate and advanced learners.

Already has a wide variety of languages for you to explore—from major languages such as Amharic, Igbo and Swahili to smaller languages such as Basaa, Coptic and Moba.

You can filter by language, type of resource, rating and level.

Continually updated with more resources every day.

Honest and unbiased ratings and reviews; no affiliate links.

I won't let academia burn me out.

Now repeat. 😌

And then strengthen the idea of: I'm doing this for the improvement of society, for the improvement of myself and the future and more importantly the present myself.

And now repeat. 😌
