Pimsleur quality BUT only one audio file :(

What did you like best about this story?

Pimsleur are a great entry point into languages.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

DEFINITELY NOT! The Pimsleur system suggests never listening to more than one unit a day. Unfortunately, all 5 units are on the same audio file (rather than being broken up into 5 different files).Having 5 separate files (one per unit) would make much more sense for me as a learner. That way I could copy the unit I want to listen to on to my iPod. Currently I'm unaware of a way to quickly get to the start of the latter units.

Any additional comments?

I absolutely love Pimsleur as a way to begin learning a new language. However, having just one audio file for units 1-5 is a serious drawback for my preferred method of study.

Speaker needs to talk a little slower.

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

If speaker spoke slower while speaking and not just slow for 1 word at a time it would be a better product. I find it useless the way it is done

No PDF

I decided to exchange these books as their is not an accompanied pdf with this book. I’d like to also know how to write what I am learning down as I am a visual learner. I do not recommend Pimsleur if you are a visual learner.

Hindi

Good luck; I can’t get beyond Chapter 2. The native speakers are speaking as if they’re in a race with each other. You will learn, “hindi”, because it’s repeated slowly and clearly before the native speaker races to finish the sentence: “Hindi... (nikakaintindiakokaba)”

Amazing!

I find it a very useful method to learning Tagalog, it's interactive, keeps you alert, and helps in conversation. The only exception is that I wish there were the written version of the course. That way I can visualize the grammar and sentence structure. Other than that, I highly recommend this program!

Super effective learning!

The process and progression are very intuitive. And great emphasis on pronunciation. I feel like I’m picking up everything very quickly!

I am enjoying Pimsleur’s Tagalog

I am enjoying the Tagalog course very much. I am part Filipino but have not spoken for many years and only a little then. The trick is to slow the speed down.
This is my third Pimsleur language course. I also bought Spanish and French.

Pimsleur is the Best Language Program!

I have tried numerous language learning programs. Never has there been a more effective program for me picking up languages. If you follow the instructions, listen, repeat what you’re hearing, you will be amazed!
