The Pimsleur Technique
We make no secret of what makes this potent approach so effective. Paul Pimsleur devoted his career exploring and honing the precise aspects that anybody may utilize to swiftly and simply acquire a language. Among his “secrets” are the following:

The Anticipation Principle
Your brain needs to work hard in the instant between a stimulus and your reaction to come up with the correct term. Having to do this improves retention and helps to solidify the term in your mind.

Essential Vocabulary
Words, phrases, and sentences are chosen based on their use in regular communication. We don’t overload you with information, but instead gradually develop your skill with each class.

Recall with Graduated Intervals
Reminders of new words and structures appear at just the right intervals to ensure optimum retention and storage in your long-term memory.

Organic Education
You work on many facets of the language at the same time. Every session incorporates grammar, vocabulary, rhythm, melody, and intonation, allowing you to experience the language as a living, expressive manifestation of human culture.

Learning in Action
According to research, learning new words in context greatly improves your capacity to recall. Every scenario in every Pimsleur lesson takes place within the context of a conversation between two people. There are no training or memorization required for success.

Participation Active
The Pimsleur Method combined with active student involvement equals success. This strategy works for every language and any learner who uses it. You develop the ability to recall and apply what you know, as well as simply add new terms, much like in English.
