I have never taken spanish in school. I work in health care and really want to be able to communicate with my spanish patients. I am only through lesson 4 and I feel like it is very easy and that I am making good progress. However I wish it were Latin American spanish instead of the more formal version that is used here. I am just substituting "mucho gusto" for "encantada" when I respond out loud for example. I could see how the slow pace would frustrate those of you that have had spanish in high school or college, but for someone who has never had that background...I find the pace perfect. I have done each lesson twice, just to make sure I have it before moving on. I think that has helped me not become too frustrated. I really like the graduated recall. Because it keeps you from just stashing the info in your short term and moving on. You have to keep going back and grabbing the word. The speakers diction is great and easy to understand. I would recommend this for those that have no spanish background. After I complete this, I think I will try Behind the Wheel Spanish.
If you REALLY want to begin to understand and speak basic Spanish, I recommend this. It assumes you don't know any Spanish. I listened and responded, sometimes repeating sections so could immediately respond correctly in Spanish. If I didn't get it at first, I would rewind it and repeat it until I got it. I only have a 15 minute commute and I was able to learn it all.After I finished this I went to the public library and got the full Pimsleur Spanish 1. It's Lesson 9 picks up exactly where this basic version lesson #8 leaves off.Any lesson is only as good as the student is receptive. If you want to listen to something one time and not put any effort into it you will never get anywhere.Tip: After you've finished it, if you haven't move on to another CD set then listen to the last 2 lessons every so often to keep fresh. Use it or lose it.
Having taken Spanish 1 and studied on my own from teach-yourself books, I found Pimsleur's Basic Spanish CD set pretty easy, though it was good for practicing pronunciation. I think this would be more useful for true beginners. I was, however, appalled at the cost of the more advanced CD sets and will not be able to continue with Pimsleur.
This is a great, easy and enjoyable way to learn Latin American Spanish. I've retained everything that I've learned so far and even a native Spanish speaker from Chile complimented me on my accent and pronunciation. My husband isn't a fan of learning languages but he has really enjoyed this series of 10 lessons and is keen to do more. We've done them in our cars, at home whilst cooking and even while working. Speaking out loud helps with the pronunciation, confidence and retention of the language. I highly recommend this course.
A good way to learn Spanish while driving to and from work. No book needed.
I got the cd's today for the Pimsleur Basic Spanish. The cd's were in a nice black case cd holder for all 5 cd's. I listen to the first two 30 minute lessons today and am amazed of how much I learned already and it was fun and easy. I can't wait to get through all the lessons, this was well worth the cost!
I'm an auditive/visual person. Since I'm a linguist and love music, this system is perfect for me. I learn a lot when I hear people saying the words and I can repeat them, specially when pronunciation is key. I'm a perfectionist, and I know that repetition is the way to go. This software provides that and I'm so glad I got it! What a great way to learn a language!
This one is for very, very basic Spanish. Like, if you don't know more than a few words. I only had Spanish in high school many years ago, and I breezed through these lessons in no time.Pro: They go really slowly, repeat and review a lot. They break down some of the words. I can see how you could learn very easily with this system.Cons: (partly my fault for not reading the description better) These cd's are just a very small sample to get you to buy the much more expensive systems. There was barely anything to them. It was 5 cd's with 2 short lessons on each CD.
