  • Perhaps the best way for self taught language

    After trying other language programs on CD's, I've settled on the Pimsleur method. They break down the words syllable by syllable so that I can comprehend just how to make the pronouncement correctly. I'm a VERY slow leaner, and these cd's have worked the best for me.
