Português Pra Fora

What it actually is

Conversational episodes aimed squarely at learners abroad, covering how Brazilians actually study, work and socialise as well as the language itself, all in Portuguese at close to natural speed. Over three hundred videos since 2020 and still publishing. Because there is no English at all it is a step up from beginner channels — useful once you can follow a slow conversation and want to stop being talked down to.
