How the Anahytec Method works

A speech act is an action performed with language. Not a word — an act. Brazilian Portuguese has 20 of them. This method teaches them directly, in sequence, from the most immediately useful to the most socially sophisticated.

🎯

Speech acts, not vocabulary

Each lesson teaches one complete communicative act — greeting, requesting, thanking. Not a word. An action performed with language.

🔁

Complete, transferable units

Learn one act once. Use it anywhere that act applies — on the street, in a shop, at a restaurant, on WhatsApp.

📶

Sequenced by communicative need

From social survival to the Brazilian social game. You don't learn to read subtext before you can greet someone.

👨‍🏫

Human teacher, not AI

Real experience, real feedback, real Brazilian Portuguese from someone who has taught for 28 years.

🗣️

Corpus-based speech

Every phrase comes from a corpus of real Brazilian conversations — not textbook constructions or artificial situations.

⚡

Short, focused lessons

One speech act per video. Three forms of the same act. Real situations. No grammar lectures.
