Description

Set in a series of stories, the lessons place you in everyday situations and daily activities of a family. Every story consists of ten lessons, each expanding on the previous all while having a tutor clarify grammar and idioms as needed. The whole learning process focuses on the family members’ casual conversations in their daily lives which progressively become more and more complex. This learning experience flows very naturally and it is meant to make you feel like you are a part of the story actively participating with the family, rather than simply studying words and phrases.

The BASIC program (Lessons A-J) covers the essential material needed when traveling. Level 1 (Lessons 1-100) is where complex stories involving the entire family takes place.

Who this course is for:

  • This course is meant to replace any beginner course in the market, such as Rosetta Stone, Pimsleur, Fluenz, etc.
  • The speed of material picks up quickly, thus this course is not recommended for children.
