Critic reviews

Reviews of Paul Noble’s Language Institute courses:

“I'm utterly amazed by it. I can't recommend it highly enough."

“Really brilliant. It’s changed everything.”

“It was so relaxing. It was the first time I've ever tried studying a language where I didn't feel stressed at all. It was just what I needed – and probably what everyone else needs too. It just made the language seem so simple and easy to learn."

"The course was so interesting; it was amazing how the language was pulled apart and then put together again by us ourselves, so that we can actually now leave and speak German."

“I did ‘O’ Level French at school and spent several holidays in France but could never really say much beyond bonjour and merci. Now, I can make up my own sentences and actually communicate what I want to say. The course was so confidence-building that I actually can’t shut up speaking the language. It made it easy to talk and, importantly, to go on learning more afterwards. Fabuleux!”

“Simply amazing. I would recommend Paul Noble to anyone and everyone, whether you are a complete beginner or you have a basic working knowledge already."

“It contrasts dramatically with other experiences I've had of trying to learn foreign languages. I feel I've learnt more in the past two days than I had in the previous two years.”

Interesting introduction to Mandarin Chinese

This was an interesting introduction to Mandarin Chinese.

My only problem was that to my ears, while the Mandarin narrator, Kai-Ti Noble, was repeating words, some of the same syllables in the same words sounded different to my ears on different repetitions. But I'm guessing that is mostly due to my ears not being used to listening to Mandarin Chinese.
