Audiobook purchase
SpeedI really like being able to practice speaking out loud and go back over lessons when I need to. At first, I tried the monthly subscription, but I had a hard time because the lessons were only available at regular speed. I'm over 50, so I need more time to understand information. That's why I ended up buying the audiobook lessons instead. The audiobook lets me slow down the audio to 75%, and that has made a big difference in how I learn. The monthly subscription is expensive, and I think the company should think about adding a feature for longer pauses on the app. But since I got the lessons, I've found that I can go at a pace that works better for me, and I'm really liking the program.
About Pimsleur
Pimsleur is a language learning company that offers audio-based language learning courses. It was founded by Dr. Paul Pimsleur, a psychologist and expert in the field of applied linguistics, in the early 1960s. The Pimsleur Method is built on the principle of spaced repetition, where learners are exposed to new words and phrases at gradually increasing intervals to maximize retention. The company's courses are designed to teach spoken language skills through 30-minute lessons, which users can complete at their own pace. Over the years, Pimsleur has expanded its offerings to include a wide range of languages, making it a popular tool among learners seeking to achieve conversational fluency.
