The other week, I spoke about a new website find which I dubbed the ‘Portuguese Pot of Gold‘, although I alluded to the fact that that particular pot of gold might not stay put as it was probably from a ripped dvd. Let me announce an even better pot of gold…in fact, I’m going to say the buck rainbow stops here. Ladies and Gents, Brazilpod from the University of Texas at Austin!
Funny, I’ve known of their Brazil Center and focus on Latin America for quite awhile yet I never saw this site. I’d love to give you all a breakdown of Brazilpod, but it’s best if left to your wandering eyes. If only I would have found it when I started out…
Here’s a description from the man behind it all, Professor Orlando Kelm,
“From this site you have access to our teaching materials here at the University of Texas at Austin for the study of Portuguese. As we develop instructional technology for our students at UT we are happy, in fact we think of it as our mission, to share everything with other institutions and the general public. Keep coming back because we seem to be adding new content all the time. Our philosophy is that all materials should be shared with everyone, with open access and without cost or password restrictions.”
