No learningIt’s just a recording of a guy telling you how to pronounce words. And it starts you right at the beginning without testing you to see how much you already know. It’s really boring. Doesn’t teach you new words. It’s literally just a 30 minute recording of a guy saying “excuse moi. Say ex, say scuse,…

Speechless!I downloaded this app not because I chose to, but because YouTube’s Pimsleur ad, “juggling fire..

Très bienJe apprends rapidement et parle français aussi. I’m further ahead in comprehension and speaking in a few weeks than I was with a year of Duolingo, without the annoying prompts. Very good method of teaching.

Best language learning appIf you’ve ever had issues with learning to converse in foreign languages and Duolingo isn’t cutting it. Get Pimsleur!
