Dr. Paul Pimsleur developed a new method of learning and teaching based on two key principles; The Principle of Anticipation adn a scientific principle of memory that he called Graduate Interval Recall. This program incorporates both of these principles to provide you with the most simple and effective learning method possible. Dr. Pimsleur discovered that learning accelerates when there is an 'input/output' system of interaction, in which students receive information and then are asked to retrieve and use it. This program is carefully designed to remind you of new information at the exact intervals where maximum retention takes place. Each time your memory begins to fade, you will be asked to recall the word. Through this powerful method, you progress from short term memory to long term memory without being aware of it, while avoiding the monotonous rote repetition used in traditional language courses.
