It can be doubly so if you are unable to attend a university or have a busy family and work life. To make learning a new language as accessible as possible, many websites offer learning a language virtually. These programs range from low-cost web access sites to the more expensive programs you use at home.There are also opportunities to learn Portuguese in a virtual setting where you speak it one-on-one with a native speaker or group of speakers who will tutor you.
