WHY THE
PIMSLEUR SYSTEM WORKS
The late Dr.
Paul Pimsleur was much more than a language teacher. He did research
on how both children and multi-lingual adults learn languages and discovered
key principles that unlocked the mystery of how we learn languages.
You Learned English by Ear
Pimsleur discovered
that language reaches the brain most quickly through hearing. Once in the
brain, speech is sorted out and stored in the language cortex. The Pimsleur
System uses these facts of brain physiology to place scientifically-selected
course material in your mind through teaching techniques that take maximum
advantage of the way the brain most easily learns and retains language.
You learn to employ the fundamental core of a language with the words and
constructions most frequently used in the daily lives of contemporary native
foreign language speakers---the same way you effortlessly learned English
as a child.
Greater
Recall Through
Question/Answer Technique
The Pimsleur System
makes you remember what is learned via a spoken - not written - question/answer
method. You hear two native speakers complete an exchange of thought |
|
The
learning is so clear
and organized that you will automatically respond to the foreign situation
and remember what has been learned.
A Method
That Makes Recall Permanent
Studies of how memory
works reveal that when you retrieve and use a piece of information at specific
intervals,
you remember it for a longer period of time. In the Pimsleur System, the
information you need is repeated at precisely the right time for you to
retain it. These intervals become longer and longer until you remember the
information without being reminded at all. Known as Graduated
Interval Recall, this timed recycling of information after gradually
longer intervals, moves your new knowledge from short- to long-term memory
with the least possible work. What you learned becomes a permanent part
of your long term memory.
Another unique part of this program is that you work on your
core vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation
all at once. This is called Organic Learning. You'll model your pronunciation
after native speakers who talk to you in the audio sessions.
Think
in Your New Language
You'll learn by example,
not memorization. You'll learn naturally, as a child does. And at the end
of of 30 days, you'll not only be able to speak in and understand your new
language, you'll be able to think in it as well. And when you can think
in a new language, you've really learned it. |
How
Well Will I Speak and Understand?
After you complete your Pimsleur
Level I course your will be at
the Intermediate Spoken Proficiency
Level (ACTFL) -- The American
Council for Teaching of Foreign
Language Scale -- The majority
of Pimsleur Program users go on
after Level I to Levels II and
III at which time they are at
the ACTFL Intermediate-High Spoken
Proficiency in both speaking and
reading the foreign language.

| "I've
tried all of the audio language courses, Berlitz, Rosetta Stone,
etc. None of them worked for me except Pimsleur. They all entailed
rote memorization, tedious grammar and syntax instructions. I
could barely get through the first tape. With Pimsleur, it was
different. No memorization. All I had to do was listen, think,
and repeat. It all came so naturally. More importantly, when I
went to Russia, native speakers were impressed. I could understand
them and them, me. " |

"I
bought Pimsleur Mandarin Chinese for my career. I thought Chinese
would be impossible to learn. Wrong! After the very first lesson
I was understanding and speaking the language. My confidence soared.
I have gone through all three levels and now speak and understand
Mandarin almost flawlessly. My Chinese counterparts were so impressed
that they purchased the entire Pimsleur English series for their
employees. Thanks. The best course ever!" |

"I have mastered Spanish because of Pimsleur.
Before Pimsleur, I didn't think I could learn a new language.
Now, I am fluent. As a result, I received multiple promotions
in my company. I am now the V.P. of Latin American Operations.
I have tripled my salary. I owe it to my easy-to-learn language
and Pimsleur."

"I run one of the most successful English
teaching schools in Japan. It is successful because we use the
Pimsleur English for Japanese Speakers audio courses. Our students
learn faster than any other method. I discovered Pimsleur when
I wanted to learn Japanese. Pimsleur is definitely and unequivocally
the best language course ever developed." |

| "Pimsleur
is so easy. All you have to do is listen and repeat. My 8-year-old
twins use Pimsleur and now speak two new languages, French and
Spanish. Their teachers think they are prodigies. They're not.
They just use Pimsleur. Our school district is now thinking about
converting their entire foreign language curriculum to the Pimsleur
Method." |

"I
thought I was too old to learn a foreign language. My ancestors
are from Italy. My son gave me a 70th. birthday trip to Italy
and three Pimsleur Italian programs. I listened to one session
per day for three months. I achieved Level III. When I went to
Italy I was able to freely communicate and make many new friends.
They all thought I had spoken Italian my entire life." |
