    Dr.Pimsleur, a Ph.D.and specialist in the field of applied linguistics, devoted his life and career to learning languages and understanding the psychology of language acquisition.He recognized through extensive research that effective communication in any language depends on mastery of a relatively limited number of words.And, trying to learn too many words at first can actually slow the language retention process However, once this "core vocabulary" is mastered and used consistently, it provides a framework for accelerated language learning.The Pimsleur Approach aims each lesson at teaching you to use the eore vocabulary of the language, so you can speak the most in the least amount of time.It's not how many words you know, but rather, which words you can use.Each Pimsleur Approaeh lesson has been scientifically sequenced to rapidly lock language material into your brain after just one listen.Just sit back and listen while the audio does the work for you. 
    The entire Pimsleur Approach is what language learning should be: quick, fun and easy, You'll absorb your new language effortlessly without any reading, writing or computer use.The Pimsleur Approach has a 100 percent guarantee: speak in 10 days or you don't pay.
