Learning Greek and/or Portuguese online - given this situation looks set to stay for a while!

Working from home is an all consuming task, so I need something a little fun to take my mind away from it all.

I was taking Portuguese classes before all went mad, so I'd like to continue that (very beginner level) and I've always fancied wafting about the Greek Islands barefoot, whilst spouting off fluent Greek.

Now seems as good a time as any to start ! I'm already good at languages (speak French fluently, did Chinese to university level and now an ESL teacher abroad) so know how to learn a language - would love any tips or resources that you have though!

Greek is notoriously difficult, apparently some Greeks mess it up. .If you hadn't done Chinese I would have ruled it out. I'm also good at languages and learnt enough Greek to be able to ask for things, like directions or about buses or ferries. That took about 6 months.
