IntroductionWhat is the Michel Thomas Method?The Michel Thomas Method* all-audio courses, published by HodderEducation, provide an accelerated method for language learning that is trulyrevolutionary. And they promise a remarkable educational experience thatwill make your learning both exciting and pleasurable.

How does the Method work?The Method works by breaking a language down into its component parts,enabling learners to reconstruct the language themselves to form theirown sentences, to say what they want, when they want. Because you learnthe language in small steps, you can build it up yourself to produce evermore complicated sentences.

No booksNo writing

Just confidence in hours

The Michel Thomas Method is in tune with the way your brain works, soyou assimilate the language easily and dont forget it! The Method teachesyou through your own language, so theres no stress, and no anxiety. Theteacher builds up the new language, step by step, and you dont move on tillyouve absorbed and understood the previous point. As Michel Thomas said,What you understand, you know, and what you know, you dont forget.

With parallels to the way you learnt your own language, each language islearnt in real-time conditions. There is no need to stop for homework,additional exercises or vocabulary memorization.

Michel Thomas is a precious find indeed.

The Guardian

The classroom situation on the recording lets you learn with others. You enjoytheir success, and you learn from their mistakes. The students on therecordings are not reading from scripts and they have received no additionalinstruction or preparation just the guidance you hear on the recording. You,as the learner, become the third student and participate actively in the class.

A very important part of the Michel Thomas Method is that full responsibilityfor your learning lies with the teacher, not with you, the pupil. This helps toensure that you can relax, and feel confident, so allowing you to learneffectively.

You will enjoy the Method as it creates real excitement you cant wait touse the language.

Theres no such thing as a poor student,only a poor teacher.

What level of language will I achieve?

The Introductory and Foundation courses are designed for completebeginners. They make no assumption of a knowledge of any language otherthan English. They will give the beginner a practical and functional use of the

4 HOW ARE THE RECORDINGS BEST USED?

Relax! Make yourself comfortable before playing the recording and try to letgo of the tensions and anxieties traditionally associated with learning. Do not write or take any notes. Remove notebooks, pens, dictionariesand anything else associated with learning at school. Do not try to remember. While participating in the recording andafterwards, it is important that you do not try to memorize specific words orexpressions. It is a basic principle of the Michel Thomas Method that theresponsibility for the students learning lies with the teacher. With the MichelThomas Method as your teacher, your learning will be based on understanding,and what you understand you dont forget. Interact fully with the recordings. Use the pause button and respond outloud (or in a whisper, or in your head, if you are in a public place) before thestudents responses. This is essential. You do not learn by repetition but bythinking out the answers to each question; it is by your own thought processthat you truly learn. Give yourself time to think. The students on the recordings had all the timethey needed to think out their responses. On the recordings their thinking timehas been cut in order to make full use of the recording time. You can take all thetime you need (by using your pause button). The pause button is the key to yourlearning! To get you used to pausing the recording before the students responses,bleeps have been added to the first few tracks. When you hear the bleep, pausethe recording, think out and say your response, then release the pause button tohear the students, then the teachers, response. Start at the beginning of the course. Whatever your existing knowledgeof the language you are learning, it is important that you follow the way that theteacher builds up your knowledge of the language. Do not get annoyed with yourself if you make a mistake. Mistakes arepart of the learning process; as long as you understand why you made themistake and you have the ahaa reaction yes, of course, I understand now you are doing fine. If you made a mistake and you do not understand why, youmay have been daydreaming for a few seconds. The course is structured so thatyou cannot go on unless you fully understand everything, so just go back a littleand you will pick up where you left off. Stop the recording whenever it suits you. You will notice that this courseis not divided into lessons; you will always be able to pick up from where youleft off, without the need to review.


Who is the Michel Thomas Method for?

Anyone can learn a language with the Michel Thomas Method and thewide diversity of Michel Thomass own students proves this. Not only didMichel instruct the rich and famous, but he also taught many so-calledhopeless cases. For example, in 1997, Michel taught French to a group ofsixteen-year-olds in north London who had been told they could neverlearn a language, and gave them the ability to use the new language farbeyond their expectations in just a week. Perhaps more importantly, hegave them the confidence to speak and a belief in, and the experience of,their own ability to learn.

Whatever your motivation for learning a language, the Michel ThomasMethod quite simply offers the most effective method that is available.

What can I do next?Try to speak with native speakers whenever possible, as this is invaluable forimproving your fluency. Television and radio programmes via satellite,podcasts, newspapers and magazines (print or on-line) (especially thosewhich feature interviews) will give you practice in the most current andidiomatic language. Expose yourself to the language whenever you can you will have firm foundations on which to build.

Continue your study with the Advanced course. Then build your vocabularywith the existing and planned Vocabulary courses, which carry forward theMichel Thomas Method teaching tradition and faithfully follow MichelThomass unique approach to foreign language learning. The series editor isDr Rose Lee Hayden, Michels most experienced and trusted teacher. Thecourses remain faithful to the method Michel Thomas used in his earliercourses, with the all-audio and building-block approach. The presenterbuilds on Michels foundations to encourage the student at home to buildup their vocabulary in the foreign language, using relationships with English,where appropriate, or connections within the foreign language itself. Thestudent takes part in the audio, following prompts by the presenter, as inMichel Thomas original Foundation and Advanced courses.

7spoken language. They are also appropriate for anyone who has studied alanguage before, but has forgotten much of it or does not have confidencein speaking.

The Introductory course comprises the first two hours of the FoundationCourse. The Advanced course follows on from the Foundation course andexpands on structures touched on in the earlier course to improve yourunderstanding and mastery of complex language.

The Michel Thomas Method teaches the everyday conversational languagethat will allow you to communicate in a wide variety of situations, empoweredby the ability to create your own sentences and use the language naturally,having absorbed the vocabulary and grammatical structures and, in addition,will be introduced to deviants of reading and writing.

How quickly can I learn with the Michel Thomas Method?One of the most remarkable features of the Michel Thomas Method is thespeed with which results are achieved. A knowledge of the language that willtake months of conventional study can be achieved in a matter of hours withthe Michel Thomas Method. The teacher masterfully guides the studentthrough an instructional process at a very rapid rate yet the process willappear informal, relaxed and unhurried. The teacher moves quickly betweennumerous practice sessions, which all build the learners confidence in theirability to communicate in complex ways.

Because the Michel Thomas Method is based on understanding, notmemorization, there is no set limit to the length of time that you should studythe course. It offers immersion without strain or stress, and you will find therecordings are not divided into lessons, though the material has been indexedfor your convenience. This means that you can stop and start as you please.

The excitement of learning will motivate you to continue listening andlearning for as long a time as is practical for you. This will enable you to makeprogress faster than you ever imagined possible.
