I’ve wanted to learn Spanish for some time. Took it multiple times in school but very little stuck. I bought this program hoping it would be helpful and surprisingly it is one of the best I’ve used thus far.

The lessons are easy but not simple. They are long enough without being too long so you don’t get overwhelmed or bored. And they stick to things that a relevant up front. If I skip a day I go back and listen to the prior lesson again on a fasted speed and see if I can keep up. If not, I repeat the lesson at the normal pattern and continue on. Sometimes I just repeat the lessons to get a better grasp.

I like that they weave in prior learning to current lessons so as to keep reminding you along the way. That along with the vocabulary seems to be doing the job. After the next few chapters, found in another audiobook in the series, I’ll see if I feel confident enough to try with my Spanish speaking friends. Mostly I find they talk soooo fast it’s hard to keep up yet. Again the reason I speed up the lessons when I repeat them.

One of the best I’ve used

It's engaging, easy to use, and a valuable tool for those looking to start speaking Spanish today. Try it!

Loved it!

I listen on the drive to work, so this method is effective for me. Learning a new language is a challenge, but this format works, if you stay with it and repeat lessons as necessary. I like that it’s geared toward adult learners. The comprehensive pdf for reading is available with the first set of audio lessons (1-5), as well as the second (6-10), in its entirety. Go to your lesson library and you will see the link to open the pdf under “Launch App.” Enjoy!

Going well for me! Muy bien!

I really enjoyed this program. It placed a lot of emphasis on helping the listener understand and pronounce each word correctly. I just wish the lessons came in a bundle package.

Very Helpful

The joy of any language is when you are able to speak immediately with other natives. This serves as a motivation

You start speaking immediately

Love learning via Audible and would like this to see more courses just like this one.

Great course

I use pimsleur primarily on my phone and your title design leaves much to be desired. it's impossible to see the level and so one must shuffle through all the titles to get to the next appropriate section (eg: Pimsleur Spanish Le.. and it cuts off so you can't see what the level is and have to guess).
This is a page design flaw that is incredibly inconvenient. Please fix!!

otherwise, I love Pimsleur. It's a slow process, but if you are consistent, it's remarkably effective. I finished all three levels of Pimsleur French before traveling to Quebec and it brought me up to confident conversational. It's an excellent starting point for language acquisition (or ending point if you can do 5 levels and are using it primarily for travel).

AUDIBLE page designers listen up!

I'm in the process of learning both Mandarin Chinese and Spanish through these Pimsleur audiobooks and I find the daily pace of 30 minute lessons (usually on my dog walks) working for me. Usually from lesson 3 onwards I repeat each lesson once so it sticks in my mind, so I average 1 lesson per 2 days/sessions. At first I found there wasn't enough vocabulary being used or taught in each lesson but as I advance, I feel that it's just the right amount so I don't get overwhelmed and lose confidence.

Unlike the Chinese lessons, the Spanish curriculum includes an additional reading of a vocab list that's added after every lesson since it uses the roman alphabet as opposed to Chinese characters that are harder to explain. All they do so far is teach you the pronunciation of each word and you can scroll to the next page for the translations yourself. No quizzing.

I easily found the PDF on the app when I clicked on those 3 dots at the top right of the screen when the audiobook is opened (3 dots or lines usually indicate a menu drop down of sorts). You can view it through the app but I prefer using my own PDF reader app as it's easier to scroll through. You don't have to stop driving or walking or doing whatever physical activity to learn as you can go back to the vocab list later. It helps me when I can visualize the spelling of the words when I recite the phrases in the lesson.

Overall I love the Pimsleur method and I wish I started this at the beginning of the Covid shutdown instead of waiting so long.

Love this audiobook learning method

I like this method of learning. Think about it that is the way toddlers learn their language. I am picking it up pretty good, at 50 that is not an easy task. you can review as much as you need.

Helping me with my bucket list

story is very repetitive, but it not really a story book, it's a language leaning book.
