Qual É A Dúvida

I’ve just finished Qual É A Dúvida and I was really impressed. I’d spent a lot of time bogged down in a really tedious, repetitive exercise book beforehand and I could never motivate myself to open it, so switching to this was a real breath of fresh air. It’s got 25-35 questions in every 2 page section. Its purpose is to focus on some of the trickier aspects of grammar that you might have found hard when you learned about them. As such, it isn’t a textbook and doesn’t give very detailed explanation of each topic because it assumes you’ve already learned it and just need to practice some examples to get the hang of the. So you get a super-basic summary of the rule or difference it’s trying to highlight and then it leaves you to fill in the spaces. It covers relatively basic stuff from B1 up into some really twisty grammar for C2 level.

I found it challenging in places, but even in the easy pages, I never really felt like I was wasting my time.

It’s really one of my favourite books so far, and I have marked some of the harder pages to review again later.

I’ll put the first contents page below so you can see what it’s hitting at the intermediate level, but the whole thing spans three pages.

Strong recommendation if you’re intermediate/advanced. And if you’re looking to load up on textbooks, remember I have a special page for that and it’s here.
