5.0 out of 5 stars Que Bom!!, June 4, 2008
This review is from: Brazilian Portuguese Level 1 (DVD)
At last this is the best!!I tried Rosetta but had to returned it because it was boring and to slow moving. I'm also a big fan of Pimsleur but too bad it's only audio. Semantica is entertaining and easy to follow. You don't lose focus because it's like watching a movie broken down into small clips. They teach you real life scenarios as opposed to learning phrases here and there that have no use in real life. I just wish they would hurry up and come out with more.

This review is from: Brazilian Portuguese Level 1 (DVD)
After going through 5 courses in Brazilian Portuguese: Portuguese in 10 minutes a day, Pimsleur, Rosetta Stone, Manuela Cook and this, I consider this a fine addition to the long slog to acquire the language. It is well produced and entertaining. However, if you are short of cash and a complete beginner, I'd go for Portuguese in 10 minutes a day. It is a lot cheaper and also fun. The Semantica course is expensive on Amazon and can be bought from the Semantica website for $50 less (if you have a Paypal account or your visa card is verified by Paypal. I have a Paypal account but security on that system is so tight, it shuts me out of my own account. That's why I bought from Amazon at the much higher price.)

I still consider the Pimsleur 90-lesson Portuguese course to be the best. I would still recommend that over the Semantica or any other course mentioned above. Pimsleur, however, is very expensive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Muito Bom!, March 28, 2008
This review is from: Brazilian Portuguese Level 1 (DVD)
Muito bom!!!
I gave this to my kids to watch before traveling to Brazil and they loved it. I myself speak pretty decent Portuguese, yet still picked up a lot of new phrases from the more advanced chapters. Great product.
