Summary: Great starter but....
Review: The Pimsleur method is a great way to start, but the five tapes can quickly be mastered. It would be better with more content/more tapes. Obviously you're not going to learn the language and strike up a conversation after following this course...but that was never my intent.....I was looking for a starting point. All-in-all I satisfied with the course and think it worth the price.With all that said, they could have hit a home run with 3 things. 1: more tapes, 2: a pronunciation key, 3: the reading guide for each unit should have covered the words used in the corresponding unit on tape. If Pimsleur expanded the course (before I mastered the language through other means) I would purchase it.

Summary: The Pimsleur Method is a bit slow for me
Review: This was my first exposure to the Pimsleur system of language learning. I found the tapes to be well produced technically, with excellent sound quality. I was disappointed at how slowly they moved, however. I understand the need for repetition in learning a language, but I wish they had covered more ground and just let me replay the tapes when I needed reinforcement. I became frustrated after going through 10 lessons and still not knowing any colors, days of the week, months, seasons, or even being able to count to 20. Perhaps some learners need more repetition, but I was exhausted after hearing, for example, the phrase meaning "..would like" presented 303 times(I counted). I am presently looking for some Creole tapes that present more information in a more concentrated fashion.
