If you are an adult learner with no previous knowledge of Portuguese and studying on your own, then Teach Yourself Portuguese is the course for you. Perhaps you are taking up Portuguese again after a break from it, or are you intending learning with a class? Again, you will find this course very suitable.

The language introduced is centred around realistic, everyday situations and the course covers all four of the basic skills - listening and speaking, reading and writing. The course book contains 25 thematic and carefully graded units, and covers a variety of everyday topics, progressing from introducing yourself to replying to an advertisement or writing a CV.

The emphasis is on communication throughout, with important language structures introduced through dialogues on the accompanying recording. The audio material is available separately on two 75-minute CDs or cassettes or together with the book in a pack.

Manuela Cook, the author, is a specialist in Portuguese Language Studies and Fellow of the Institute of Linguists, London. Over the years she has taught and examined at all levels, from GCSE to post-graduate university courses, and has written materials for the learning of Portuguese.
