The Pimsleur Method:
With the 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 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 rote memorization and drills.
Using a unique method of memory recall
developed by renowned linguist, Dr. Paul Pimsleur, 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.
No other language program or school is as quick, convenient, and
effective as the Pimsleur Language Programs.
The Pimsleur language courses are offered in both the "Basic" and the
"Comprehensive" programs. The Comprehensive Program is the ultimate in spoken language learning.
For those who want to become proficient in the language of their choice,
the Comprehensive programs go beyond the Basic Programs to offer
true spoken-language fluency. Using the same simple method of interactive
self-practice with native speakers, these comprehensive programs provide a
complete language learning course. The Comprehensive Programs are
available in a wide variety of languages and run through three levels
(thirty lessons each).
At the end of a full Comprehensive Program
listeners will be conducting complete conversations and be well on their
way to mastering the language.
