The Complete Course is perfect if you want to reach a reasonably high level of ability. Whether that is because you are working abroad, studying for an exam or wanting to refresh your skills from previous study. This course and the others in the Complete range are the most widely used of all our courses as they start from scratch and yet provide the learner with a confident and competent understanding of a new language. Since the Complete course gives you more chance to speak the language, you will benefit from improvements to your fluency, pronunciation and confidence.
The success of our courses is based on the strength of our pioneering learning methodology. With a combination of books and audio material you will learn to Listen, Understand, Speak. This is the natural way to learn a new language.
Listen Whilst reading the course books, listen to native speakers in your new language. This is the most relaxing and involved way to learn, helping you to associate the sounds you hear with the words and sentences you read.
Understand By listening and reading the language, you begin to discover what each word means. Everyday objects have exciting new names. Gradually words, then phrases, become clear and your reading, writing and speaking of the language will improve.
Speak Many people find that speaking their new language is the hardest part. But Linguaphone's method makes sure that you start speaking from the very first lesson with the correct pronunciation.
Truly Comprehensive & Integrated Instruction is presented with balanced attention to all four language skill areas: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing, with substantial exercises included to strengthen each skill area.
Confidence in Language Learning Linguaphone's structured language instruction and clear, easy-to-follow guidance allows you to feel confidence in your ability to master a new language through a completely new language course, developed in conjunction with language experts from England's University of York. You will be amazed at how quickly you are actually able to use your new language.
. . . And Learning Well! Linguaphone's Complete course has been newly created and designed from the ground up, and will take the leaner to a solid, advanced level. It is comprised of 3 handbook/workbooks, user's guide, and 8 compact disks . Each unit is well organized, with specific goals, and lessons are perfectly sized segments for easy mastery and review.
2,000 Building Blocks. . . Vocabulary has been called the building blocks of communication, and while not denying the importance of knowing how to put words together, an extensive vocabulary certainly helps with effective communication. Linguaphone's Complete is built around a sold vocabulary of 2,000 words, lending attention to those words and phrases which are used most in basic communication.
You're in Control of Your Learning You choose not only when and how you want to study, but how often you want to repeat the material in the course. While each unit is 60 minutes long, it is divided into multiple lesson tracks, making it easy to review specific topics as often as you wish, without having to listen to the entire lesson. There's no having to go back to the beginning of a unit just to hear a small segment of the lesson again.
