Overview

Ten 30-minute lessons of spoken Mandarin Chinese language instruction. These 10 lessons are the same as the first 10 lessons in the Pimsleur Comprehensive Level I program. Each lesson includes an introductory conversation, and new vocabulary and structures and includes practice for vocabulary introduced in previous lessons. Essential grammar and vocabulary that teach you greetings, numbers, how to order food and drinks, and to give and ask for directions. Learn to speak with near-native pronunciation. No mindless repetition! Converse with native speakers in natural (and useful!) conversations. Easy, fast, fun and effective language acquisition. Completely Audio - anytime, anywhere. No computer necessary! Unlike expensive software programs which tie learners to a computer, Pimsleur courses are available in CD or mp3 format to meet your needs.

EXTREMELY ACCESSIBLE...each section within the lessons is short enough to hold our attention, and there is enough repetition to teach even those who consider themselves slow learners...Pimsleur [programs] are extremely thorough and easy to use -- quite lively! -- Boston Herald

Author Information

"Dr. Paul Pimsleur devoted his life to language teaching and testing and was one of the world's leading experts in applied linguistics. After years of experience and research, Dr. Pimsleur developed The Pimsleur Method based on two key principles: the Principle of Anticipation and a scientific principle of memory training that he called ""Graduated Interval Recall."" This Method has been applied to the many levels and languages of the Pimsleur Programs."
