Product Information

Learn over 50 essential words at the heart of Spanish and how to put them together to make yourself understood. This 1-hour basic introduction to Spanish with the Michel Thomas Method will get you speaking the language immediately: no books, no pens, no memorizing - just listen, connect and speak. How does it work? During the course, you will join Michel, Michel Thomas Method teacher Dr. Rose Lee Hayden and two students in a live lesson, hearing both their successes and their mistakes to keep you motivated and involved throughout the course. Within the very first hour you will be able to construct simple phrases by listening and thinking out answers for yourself without the pressure of writing or memorizing. Why is the method so successful? The Michel Thomas Method was perfected over 50 years by celebrated psychologist and linguist Michel Thomas. This unique method works with your brain and draws on the principles of instructional psychology. Knowledge is structured and organised so that you assimilate the language easily and don't forget it. The method breaks down the language into building blocks that are introduced sequentially in such a way that you create your response and move on to ever-more-complex sentences. You'll stick with it because you'll love it. Where do I go next? After you finish your Start course, you can move to the Total Spanish course, which includes 7-hours of audio and a practice CD-ROM. Perfect Spanish follows on from the Total course with 11-hours of audio and a practice CD-ROM. Learn anywhere Don't be tied to chunky books or your computer, Michel Thomas Method audio courses let you learn whenever you want: at home, in your car, or on the move with your MP3 player.

  • I find that Micheal Thomas's methods work well for English speaking adults learning other languages.

    Early days but I believe that this CD will enable me to quickly 'get a handle' on the Spanish language quickly. I am a native English speaker and I can speak fairly good French. I have used Micheal Thomas CDs over a number of years to help me with the development of my French. Some criticise his methods by saying that he explains everything in English. For me that is the point. If one moves to a new country then "Immersion" is undoubtedly the best way to learn quickly. Personally as an adult learning another language and based in England, I need explanations to help me to remember 'how the language works'. Perhaps learning as a child is different.....different methods suit different people perhaps?

  • LIke MIchel Thomas. Didn't hook up with his Spanish.

    Having done similar French course with MIchel Thomas I thought this would be a similar learning process. For me it is not as easy to understand. I understand that Michel Thomas is Swiss and I guess his mother tongue is German. I can't quite hook up with his accent in Spanish although Idid far better in French, although I do have basic French skills. So for me I will be looking for other Spanish lessons. Maybe it's too casual for me. I don't know.
