The Basic program contains 5 hours of audio-only, effective language learning with real-life spoken practice sessions and is designed as an effective way to introduce you to the Pimsleur method of language learning. When you finish this course you will have attained basic communication skills in your target language. Each program is the first 10 lessons of a Pimsleur 30 lesson Comprehensive Program. Each lesson contains the parts for a regular Pimsleur lesson, except there is no introduction to Reading because there is no time in 10 lessons to establish a useful relationship between the target language sound system and the spelling system of the language. This is included only in Comprehensive Programs. The Basic program is the perfect way to preview the Pimsleur Teaching Method because it is designed as both a little taste of a language, as well as an Introduction to a full 30-lesson Comprehensive Level I Program.
What is the Pimsleur difference? The Pimsleur Method provides the most effective language-learning program ever developed. The Pimsleur Method gives you quick command of Arabic structure without tedious drills. Learning to speak Arabic can actually be enjoyable and rewarding. The key reason most people struggle with new languages is that they aren't given proper instruction, only bits and pieces of a language. Other language programs sell only pieces -- dictionaries; grammar books and instructions; lists of hundreds or thousands of words and definitions; audios containing useless drills. They leave it to you to assemble these pieces as you try to speak. Pimsleur enables you to spend your time learning to speak the language rather than just studying its parts. When you were learning English, could you speak before you knew how to conjugate verbs? Of course you could. That same learning process is what Pimsleur replicates. Pimsleur presents the whole language as one integrated piece so you can succeed.
With Pimsleur you get:
Grammar and vocabulary taught together in everyday conversation
Interactive audio-only instruction that teaches spoken language organically
The flexibility to learn anytime, anywhere
30-minute lessons designed to optimize the amount of language you can learn in one sitting.
Millions of people have used Pimsleur to gain real conversational skills in new languages quickly and easily, wherever and whenever -- without textbooks, written exercises, or drills.
The 10 lessons in the Basic Arabic are the same as the first 10 lessons in the Pimsleur Comprehensive Arabic Level
The 10 lessons in Basic Arabic are also the first 10 lessons in the 16-lesson Conversational Arabic edition
Pimsleur learners progress from either the Basic or the Conversational to the Comprehensive Level 1 and not from Basic to Conversational edition.
