I’ve been in Portugal for nearly 5 years but only really started to learn earnestly in the last six months. I did have one-to-one lessons prior to Covid and then found Practice Portuguese. I find it an exceptionally difficult language and still very much like a rabbit in headlights. When someone speaks to me it is like listening to gibberish. Does anyone here think age is a barrier to learning? I’m in my late 50s. I would say not, as my background is IT training and I would always say to my students, it is never too old to learn.
