The Pimsleur programs provide a method of self-practice with an expert teacher and native speakers in lessons specially designed to work with the way the mind naturally acquires language -- vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar are all learned together without mindless memorization. Using a unique method of memory recall developed by renowned linguist, Dr. Paul Pimsleur, the programs teach listeners to combine words and phrases to express themselves the way native speakers do. By simply listening and responding to a native speaker in thirty minute recorded lessons, students learn a new language at their own pace -- comfortably and effectively.
An expanded edition of the popular Basic Program, the Traveler's Edition is complete with special features to help travelers make the most of their trip. The program provides the essential language skills needed to navigate foreign countries and helpful add-ins to make the trip go smoothly. Includes pocket phrase card, Pimsleur World Language Map, two luggage tags, and Pimsleur postcards.
