Learn another language the way you learnt your own
You learnt your own language naturally and enjoyably: now you can learn Mandarin Chinese in the same way.
You'll stick with it because you'll love it
· Use the unique method perfected over fifty years by the celebrated psychologist and linguist Michel Thomas.
· This method works with your brain, helping you to build up your Mandarin Chinese in manageable, enjoyable steps by thinking out the answers for yourself.
· You learn through listening and speaking - without the pressure of writing or memorising.
· You pick up the language naturally and unforgettably.
This much-anticipated Vocabulary Course carries forward the Michel Thomas teaching tradition and faithfully follows his unique approach to foreign language learning.
The essential format is the same all-audio, building-block approach. The teacher and native-speaker assistant instruct two students in the recording studio in real time and the student at home becomes the third member of the class.
Learning vocabulary is notoriously difficult if attempted in the traditional way - with long lists and hours of memorisation. However, with the Michel Thomas Method, new words and phrases are presented in such a way that they cannot be forgotten. They are interwoven with what has gone before so they are imprinted in your knowledge bank for ever.
The vocabulary in the courses is carefully chosen from a relatively small number of 'power words' which open up an amazing range of expression and comprehension.
Building and expanding on the language structures taught in the Foundation and Advanced Courses, these new Vocabulary Courses give you all you need to enjoy travelling in the Mandarin Chinese-speaking world, be it for business or pleasure.
Dr Harold Goodman is a physician and surgeon, who had Michel Thomas as his teacher for nearly ten years. During this time Michel Thomas's goal was not to teach Dr Goodman a specific language (though he did instruct him in two of the languages he taught) but to train him to understand his method of teaching - which he then used to teach others, with great success. Dr Goodman teaches and practises in the United States.
