commute, or use a media player and learn
while you exercise!
3. 2. Pimsleur is Affordable
Pimsleur prices have come way down in
the last year. Now is a great time to buy. A
complete 45 hour Pimsleur course (which
includes levels I, II, and III) costs less than
a semester of language training at your
local community college! Plus you don't
have to go anywhere to learn, and you'll
never compete for an instructor's attention.

actually quite convenient...nothing
distracts you from learning how to speak
and understand language.

and learn on your iPod.
7. 6. Pimsleur is
Scientifically Proven
The Pimsleur language program was
invented by Dr. Paul Pimsleur, a linguist,
author, and professor who dedicated his
life to language research. The Pimsleur
method is the only language learning
method available that has been proven
effective in language labs around the
country.
8. 7. Pimsleur is Designed
for Travel
Not only does each course teach you how
to speak with a native accent, but all
Pimsleur courses are designed with travel
in mind. Learn how to get around and
navigate your way in different countries,
and you'll be taught using the most
common regional dialect, so you won't be
befuddled.

very short time.
10. 9. Pimsleur means
Personal Enrichment
Most people don't realize that when they
learn a language, they're not just learning

they're bettering themselves at the same
time. Pimsleur helps you grow as a
person. You'll gain a whole new
perspective on the world, and open up all
kinds of new opportunities.
11. 10. Pimsleur lets you

learning languages to be a great hobby,
and it's a great way to pass the time during
