Would you like to learn a new language? Or maybe your job requires that you learn a new language. In either case the fastest and easiest way to learn a new language or even bush up on the second language you studied in school is with the use of foreign language audio study courses.
There are many such courses available today and the top of line are Simon and Schuster’s Pimsleur Language courses.
About Pimsleur Language Programs
Developed by renowned linguist, Dr. Paul Pimsleur, Simon and Schuster’s Pimsleur Language courses provide the listener with a comprehensive, self instructional, step-by-step guide on how to learn a new language.
With Pimsleur Language Programs you don't just study a language, you learn it - the same way you mastered English! And because the technique relies on interactive spoken language training, the Pimsleur Language Programs are totally audio - no book is needed! The unique audio method allows the listener to learn pronunciation, vocabulary and grammar without repetitive role learning, in a similar way to how we acquired our native language components.
The Pimsleur programs provide a method of self-practice with an expert teacher and native speakers in lessons specially designed to work with the way the mind naturally acquires language information. The various components of language - vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar - are all learned together without role memorization and drills. Using a unique method of memory recall the programs teach listeners to combine words and phrases to express themselves the way native speakers do. By listening and responding to thirty minute recorded lessons, students easily and effectively achieve spoken proficiency.
The Pimsleur approach is so effective because it is based on tried and tested techniques and principles that have proved to enable rapid and successful language learning. No other language program or school is as quick, convenient, and effective as the Pimsleur Language Programs.
