Who are we?

We are Elemelingua, an online language learning platform, built by multilingual language specialists who are passionate about learning and speaking languages.
Our aim is to help others learn how to speak and understand a language quickly. By using science-based best practices, we've designed the best possible online language courses with a social element mixed with artificial intelligence!
Additionally, our goal is to help you speak & understand a language within months... instead of years!
Since 2018, we’ve already created 22 language courses for over 9,000 students, so we thought, why not help English speakers learn Brazilian Portuguese too!
Our method was designed by Polish polyglot Konrad JvD who participated in the Polish edition of the TV Show “The Brain”, where he was tested on his knowledge of 14 languages. Watch it here.

Who is this course for?

You're a busy person and have no time for regular classes, so it would be better to learn whenever you're free.
Language learning apps that have no human element can be boring, so you'd prefer to ask for advice or language related questions to someone directly.
Your goal is to learn basic Brazilian Portuguese quickly, so that you can communicate.
Memorizing words that you will never use in a conversation can be demotivating. Therefore, you need a method that will help you build sentences and simply talk in Brazilian Portuguese.
You're looking for a method to learn Brazilian Portuguese grammar without having to memorize long and boring tables!
It's hard to know where to start, so you want someone to organize the whole learning process for you.

What does our Beginner Brazilian Portuguese course look like?

Every new course season starts weekly and lasts 24 weeks (6 months).
The next course will start on January 20, 2026 and sign-ups are open till January 20, 2026, midnight Central European Time (CET).
You are added into a group where there are other students learning the same language as you.
You can learn at home - on your smartphone or computer - and at any time, which means that there's no "fixed hours" for learning or lessons.
The course is hosted on our dedicated Globott application, where there are specially prepared flashcards. These help with learning new sentences in the blink of an eye!
Globott uses artificial intelligence to plan the pace at which you learn and repeat material. Consequently, speed & intensity are individually adjusted to you!
The course uses the latest scientific techniques to increase motivation, which makes learning more engaging and fun. As a result, our students study 4-5 days a week on average.
Our flashcards only have recordings of native speakers, which avoids the interference of mispronunciation by other students (or by non-native teachers).
Starting from week 2 you receive weekly dialogues (50 in total).
You learn the most important structures & vocabulary of a given language. As a result, it's possible to have conversations about the most basic topics, after just a few months!
Our course is designed in such a way that it is suitable for all learning styles (Fire, Water, Air and Earth); and it develops all four language skills: listening, writing, speaking and reading.
You have interesting weekly assignments, which allow you to check your knowledge of your chosen foreign language and the country where this language is spoken.
When something is unclear, you can ask teachers questions directly on the flashcards. In addition, you can also see other students’ questions and answers.
Best of all, you can receive points for daily learning and for completing assignments. Consequently, you can then exchange these points for prizes!
Most importantly, you start from scratch, so the aim is to achieve a level of basic communication (A2 level).

What our students say? (Click here to expand)

I liked the recordings of a native speaker on the flashcards

Rafał 🇧🇷

What was the biggest problem for me before I enrolled in the course? Mainly I had problems with listening and pronunciation. I think it was not as good as it should have been.
What made me sign up for the course? My greatest motivation to start this course were my Brazilian friends. I wanted to understand them and to communicate better. In general, I felt that my Portuguese was not at the level I wanted. I was also inspired by interesting videos, podcasts, webinars about this course, methods of learning that I watched earlier.
What did I like the most about the course? I liked many things especially the possibility of everyday learning at any time of the day with a good application. I also liked the recordings of a native speaker on the flashcards and a lot of sentences of the language used every day, i.e. colloquial, good communication through comments and e-mail in case of ambiguity of a particular sentence from the course. I also like the good and clear explanation in the form of video and written form of how to work with the cards in the app and what is to be done in a particular week of the course. Also the prizes that could be won for points received from daily learning and group tasks were encouraging. Also the help for a sick child (If someone studies every day, 7 days a week in a row the teacher of the course donates a certain amount to help a sick child)
How do I assess the effects of learning after 3 months? I am very pleased with this course! In general my Portuguese is much better than before. And most importantly, this is confirmed by my friends from Brazil who are the best, in my opinion, "examiners" of my learning. I think I have found a learning system that suits me so ... See you at the next language course !!! 😀

After the course, I understand 80% of simple YouTube videos.

Nina 🇧🇷

What was the biggest problem for me before I enrolled in the course? It depends on which language. With Portuguese I had a serious problem with pronunciation. The course certainly helped me to listen and remember a lot phonetically.

What made you sign up for this course? My planned trip to Brazil and willingness to embrace the language basics on the trip. I'm learning Spanish which helped a little with the understanding.

What did you like the most about the course? I liked the regularity which was helped by the course structure. Nice audio flashcards, because plain flashcards are not so interesting.

How do you evaluate the effects of learning after 3 months? After the course, I understand 80% of simple YouTube videos. The course gave me a nice basis for further learning, especially past tenses and expressing the future and the present. Spanish helped a bit, but without everyday work, nothing would've happened.

This course is a combination of the advantages of a traditional language course and an online version.

Kasia 🇧🇷

I often lacked being systematic or motivated to learn. After the fantastic adventure "Around Italian in 90 days" (which I am continuing), I also decided to start learning Portuguese and once again I do not regret my decision.

Cooperation with others, charitable causes and secret awards made my problems related to both the lack of motivation and regularity fade into oblivion. This course is a combination of the advantages of a traditional language course and an online version. We learn alone, at a convenient time, but in theory not alone, because in a group and under the guidance of a fantastic teacher. We hear a native speaker, but linguistic complexities are explained in Polish. We do not have to move from our homes, but at the same time we have the opportunity to virtually travel around the most interesting parts of a given country.

This course requires a lot of effort and learning every day, but it's worth it. The effects will surely surprise everyone. I am sure that those who really want to learn a foreign language have just found the right course!

What is the price?

In a standard language school, in order to reach a conversational level, you would usually need to attend the course for at least one year and spend around EUR 600-1,000!
Now, if you took private lessons, do you know how much it would cost? Much more! And, would you even be confident that you'd reached the desired level?
Now, our course is 6 months and only costs EUR 300!
Alternatively, you can pay in 6 monthly installments of EUR 50 each.
And if you pay for the full course right away, you will get one month free, so the total to be paid is only EUR 250.

Is there any guarantee of results?

We are convinced that by learning with our methods, you will be able to achieve really good results after just 6 months of study. We believe that our method works for the vast majority of students, regardless of their age, predispositions and previous learning experience!
However, if for some reason you are not satisfied with your results, we will refund the entire amount paid for the course.
If you choose to pay for the course in instalments, you can also cancel it at any time without having to pay further instalments.
