DESCRIPTION
Do it once, ask any language teacher how they know so much about a particular language! You will be amazed to know the reason. They know so much by teaching it. Yes, they will all tell you the same. This makes perfect sense and when you start teaching it, you start repeating it yourself. For more details please visit at http://www.cateespimsleurdownloads.com

"Probably no aspect of learning a foreign language is more important than memory. Yet no aspect of language learning has been less well examined. ..."
Dr. Paul Pimsleur
One of the most thrilling evolutions in today’s world of language learning systems is certainly the new age software tools.
Dr. Paul Pimsleur
The writing is somewhat on the wall – the Pimsleur method now has been reckoned as one of the fastest and perhaps the easiest way of speaking foreign language
Pimsleur's popularity stems from two sources.
First the idea that the optimal method for learning a language for most people is to replicate the manner in which children learn a language -audibly.
The second is that the Pimsleur method recognizes the limitations as well as the goals of most individuals. Most people don't have time to learn extensive grammar or sentence structures.

Graduated Interval Recall
Dr. Pimsleur’s research on memory was perhaps one of his most revolutionary achievements. He discovered that if his students were reminded of new words and information at gradually increasing intervals within a set amount of time, each time they would remember the word or information longer than the time before.
Principle of Anticipation
In real-life communication you are required to understand what is being said to you and to “anticipate” a correct response. It’s an intricate thought process that most of us take for granted when speaking our native language. Dr. Pimsleur’s research demonstrated that by initiating this dynamic “input/output” system, that new connections are formed in the learner’s brain.
