Best Language Program

If you want to start speaking a language, this is where you want to be. The app is absolutely worth the price.

Amazing structure

I’m actually learning, lessons are easy to set up and practice

South American Spanish

Love the format of the lessons. The primary focus on listening and speaking is great for those, like myself, who are planning a trip to S. America. It feels like I’ve acquired a lot of language skill in a short period of time, while also enjoying the learning experience. So authentic - and interesting. Wish I’d discovered the Pimsleur method many moons ago!

This is definitely the best way to learn creole

I’ve been trying to learn from YouTube and other places, and I have to say, nothing has come close to this in terms of what I’m actually remembering.

Just starting

I have tried other language apps and didn’t get very far. With this app I feel like I can learn quick enough to not get bored and quit. It’s thorough enough to retain what I’ve learned with some practice. At first, I thought it was moving too slow but I’m quickly having trouble keeping up. Each lesson reinforces the last and builds on the last. I do need to listen to each lesson twice to catch everything and get a little more practice in. I’m learning to say real sentences not just vocabulary and I’m learning about varying sentence structures for different situations as we go along. Overall, I’m very happy with it and I look forward to the next lesson each day.

Fantastic!

I’ve been learning Italian and it’s going molto bene ;) I love the Pimsleur lessons and opportunities to reinforce learning, it’s very effective and fun!

oui mais

vous faites un prix trop cher, un seul langage me suffit, pas besoin d’en apprendre 50 !

Good

Very good

It’s very complete.

Best language app

I am enrolled in SFI, and I have Duolingo, but this is the app that is actually taught me something. I highly recommend!

Good app to get you started.

Needs to be more humanly visual.

App improvements

The app is great! However, I wish that the user can input their gender to help with Spanish lessons or even other languages that utilize gender roles. This way, from the start we are learning to have a conversation with someone else rather starting lessons off as male to female.

Great app!

My husband has been tinkering with learning my native language, Czech, for many years. He is flying through the lessons and getting better every day!

Great app!

I love this app, but I’d like to be able to repeat lessons and I can’t seem to figure that out. Maybe it’s just me

It works for me

I seem to do better with Pimsleur. Listening and repeating, answering questions, and having brief conversations in the learning language (at your own pace) and in context is better than memorizing structures, rules and conjugations. Reading lessons and flashcards are very well done.

I love the amount of speaking practice.

I love the amount of speaking practice, and the development of my brain in that area. That is something I’ve struggled with in other apps. This one gives you lots of speaking practice, which is awesome.

it’s good but has its flaws

i’m loving pimsleur so far i’ve learned more japanese in 2 weeks then i have in a whole year (consistently) but the thing is is that it’s not free… BUT the offers are really good for me i used the yearly plan which is 139.00 every year. What i don’t like about pimsleur is that it’s pre-recorded it’s not based on what your saying that’s the only thing i don’t like because if you don’t remember something and the ai says “say blah blah blah blah” but i forgot how to say “blah blah blah blah” and then i remember and the ai voice cuts me off and sometimes it just gets a little bit overwhelming but overall i really like pimsleur! bye!
