Hey! I would recommend at least 30 mins a day, and if not speaking then completing an activity, watching a movie, writing down words, etc.
One hour per day is very good. If you struggle for time, even 20 minutes per day can make a big difference.

At least 3 times per week according to your goals, level of language and time you can spend on learning
Hi Aris, 1. it depends on what level of English you are learning 2. To be consistent and disciplined, you must plan YOUR time - it can be 15 min to 1 hour daily but it should be tangible, i.e. achievable. additionally try to fix a time of the day in order to be consistent.
To understand what u are learning is more important than how many hours understanding and commitment is a key
It is about the skills you want to improve. You can give 30 mins for each skill everyday.
The amount of time you should spend learning English per week depends on your level and your goal. But as a general rule of thumb, most experts recommend spending at least 20hours per week studying English. It could be broken to smaller chunks, like forty five to sixty minutes. The most important thing is to be consistent and stick to a schedule that works for you.
Best way to learn fast is talking and getting out your comfort zone. Watching tv, listening audio, mimicking, reading are secondary. If you don’t use it, you lose it 😉
I preach to my students that 30 minutes to an hour a day is efficient. That's about the length of our favorite TV shows or an episode of our favorite Netflix series. Experiment with imitating: copying something that a native speaker is saying, exactly. Flip-flop between having your subtitles in your native tongue and then switching to English ...or if you really would like a challenge, turn the subtitles off!
The more the better.but make sure that exercises are consistent , discipline and consistency in learning is very important, try to make learning a habit for you.

Unfortunately I know nothing about Portuguese

Actually, when we say walk in the street, we don't know which street exactly, but when we say walk on the street, we exactly know which street they are walking on. For example: she was walking on st.jose street. Plus we can use along the streer instead

Through modeling, where the teacher provides a clear model of the pronunciation, and the student repeats it. Secondly, phonetic transcription using the International phonetic Alphabet (IPA) which can help the student understand how words are pronounced. Another way could be using tongue twisters, which can be a fun and helpful way for practicing pronunciation , especially for sounds that are difficult to pronounce. The last way could be recordings, where students could listen to native speakers and imitate how they pronounce words.
