Not for visual learners
There is a warning in the introduction that the Pimsleur method is based on learning as a child would learn, by listening and repeating. Heed it! There are no visual clues. In many cases it’s impossible to distinguish the sounds “pa”, “ba” and “va”. It’s very frustrating when you are trying to repeat and have no idea if what you are saying is correct. Also, there is very little time between the questions and the program saying the answers, so while I am forming and starting to say the response, the program starts the response that I am then unable to hear. I find myself backing up frequently, not responding so that I can hear the correct response and using another source to determine if the sound begins with a P, a V, or a B.
The vocabulary in the accompanying workbook has no relation to the words and phrases in the audio lessons to which they are supposed to be related.
It would be very helpful to have a workbook that has a list of vocabulary words and phrases that corresponds to those used in the audio lesson. This would also help greatly to distinguish the P, B and V sounds

Excellent Examples but Short on Content
The method of memorizing in this course is effective if a little repetitive. I wish I could have learned a few more phrases for my Audible token. 2-3 Lessons a token seems a better price.

Very easy to follow
I really easy to follow. Works on memory recall. I listened to the audio in my car on my way to work. I repeated som of the lessons 2-3Xs when working on my pronounciation. I can say I really like it. The only thing I would like (which is against the method used) is a transcript of the words or phrases. I am very much a visual learner so I would like yo see how these words or phrases are written.

Very good course
Very good, but as the conversations are at the speed that French people speak naturally, it might be a bit challenging for absolute beginners.
