Comments about Japanese Phases 1-3:
This is a great jump into a language you don't know. The intuition and ear for the language you gain from pimsleur is unprecedented. I'm not even done with the first phase yet but I already feel confident in several scenarios.
Service and delivery comments:
I understand pimsleurs approach as being solely listening and speaking. I do not think there should be any read along. However it would be extremely beneficial having a guide to new vocabulary words. There are some words that even slowed down and said syllable for syllable that are hard to understand. With a guide with new words only you can really grasp what they are saying. Pimsleur should not write out sentences or anything, new words only and a reccomendation to use it only when absolutely neccasary.

My wife and I have had an easy time picking up on the Japanese language and sentence structure, thanks to the construction of the language lessons. I have already recommended Pimsleur courses to several friends because of my experience!

Very fun and easy to use! Even though I'm a full-time student I still am able to sneak 30 minutes of the program into my schedule. Very effective and I love it!
