Free Polish, Basic: Learn to Speak and Understand Polish with Pimsleur Language Programs
First, allow me to say that, in general, I LIKE the Pimsleur approach to language learning. I have a copy of the complete Comprehensive series (I, II, III, III+ or IV) for German, Italian, and Spanish, as well as the Comprehensive-I lessons for French, Dutch, Portuguese, and Polish. For the most part, I truly enjoyed the learning experience. So, if I liked it so much, why would I give ONLY THREE STARS to Pimsleur Polish?
THE PIMSLEUR APPROACH:
-- Paul Pimsleur incorporated the concepts of "graduated interval recall" and "anticipation" into his language learning method. These concepts are at the very core of his approach to language learning and they account for its success and its justified popularity.
-- This is an all "AUDIO" programme that seems to be directed at the basic communication needs of a business traveller.
-- It is built around a very limited "core vocabulary" that one would most likely meet in common encounters.
-- Grammar is not specifically discussed and, although not so-stated, students are expected to deduce the essential structure of the target language through the thoughtful absorption of the examples.
-- The only written material is a so-called "Reading Guide" that does not correlate well, if at all, to the audio lessons.
PROS:
-- It works!
-- You really WILL learn to manipulate the "core vocabulary" of the target language and you will RETAIN what you learn.
-- You will ENJOY the learning experience and you will develop a sense of SELF-CONFIDENCE with the basics of the target language.
-- The Pimsleur is an excellent STARTING POINT for learning the phonetics of a new language.
