About Learn Portuguese by MindSnacks

*** One of the best educational apps of the year - Apple (iTunes Rewind) ***
Learn Portuguese while playing games -- with MindSnacks, it’s that easy. Featuring 9 addictive games designed for essential vocab & conversation skills, our Portuguese app is perfect for adults, kids, students and travelers hoping to boost their Portuguese prowess.

By using games instead of pesky flashcards, you’ll do more than just memorize the apps 1000+ words. You’ll learn things like conjugation, the difference between regular and irregular verbs and much more. Whether you’re brushing up on old skills or discovering new ones, we’ll will help make Portuguese feel less like a second language and more like second nature.

Download the first lesson completely free, then upgrade to get all 50 Lessons and up to 40+ hours of content. As a timely bonus, the app also includes a specific lesson packed with Soccer terms for fans headed to Brazil for the 2014 World Cup. That sounds to us like a Goooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaal!!!

* THE SCIENCE BEHIND MINDSNACKS *

At MindSnacks we like to keep it fun, but we’re serious about learning. That’s why our Portuguese app includes 9 challenging games designed by Ivy League professors. Each game teaches a specific aspect of Portuguese, creating a well-rounded learning experience for both kids and adults that goes far beyond basic vocabulary flashcards.

Of course studying is only worth it if it works, so our unique algorithm reinforces the learning process using proven methods from the field of memory studies. Over time, the games adapt to your individual performance, selectively repeating Portuguese words, phrases and grammatical points with which you’ve previously struggled. In other words, as you learn Portuguese, the app learns about you for a more effective learning experience.

Perfect for beginning and intermediate learners, MindSnacks lets you learn Portuguese at home, on the bus or during lunch breaks. You’ll soon spend less time looking at that translation dictionary and more time letting those Portuguese words roll right off your tongue.
