The Verb Set method is an innovative approach created by the author that promotes learning through speaking. Every set contains six verbs and a practice objective, such as mastering a tense or a theme. The questions aim to develop conversation and to help to generate other ideas and phrases. Through the necessity or curiosity of formulating responses, the student actively searches for information, contrary to most conventional methods which simply deliver information to a passive student. The level of difficulty increases progressively as each section is completed. This book was designed for students of Brazilian or European Portuguese.
