Clumsy to Confident: Role-playing everyday situations in Portuguese | with Liliana from The Talking Sardines

Thu 1 Oct 2026 19:00 - 21:00 Absent

Ever frozen mid-sentence at the supermarket checkout, or nodded along at the pharmacy hoping you understood correctly? This is the workshop for you!

Join us for a playful, low-pressure evening where we act out the everyday Portuguese conversations that actually trip people up — navigating a restaurant from menu to bill, navigating the till at Pingo Doce, explaining a symptom to the pharmacist.

This is a very special edition: hosted by Liliana Gaspar, Portuguese teacher and life coach, and founder of The Talking Sardines.  

We'll rotate through mini "stations," each set up like a real-life scene, with useful vocab and phrases on hand and a bit of coaching along the way. Come as a total beginner or a rusty intermediate — the goal is confidence, not perfection.

What to expect:

• Role-play scenarios: restaurant, supermarket, pharmacy (and a couple of surprises)

• Key phrases and vocab cheat sheets to take home (Liliana has a survival guide for us!) 

• A relaxed, playful atmosphere — this is Portuguese as play, not homework

• Fellow learners to laugh (and stumble) with

About Portuguese and Play

Portuguese and Play is the brain and love child of Astrid Lillie, a Portuguese language learner herself. Our goal is to make learning Portuguese more playful and fun, as we believe that this is a way to unlock the virtuous cycle with respect to language learning. We believe in mixed level group classes, acquisition through exposure, diversity and inclusion.
