Now, she offers online courses and CD's. >From personal experience, I had been practicing with the tapes before our trip then everything came in the place once I arrive in the azores in regards to speaking the language. Since the only place for me to personally hear people speak Portuguese was our local festa. Everyone else in our prior generations who spoke the language fluently have passed on.
