  • So valuable!

    Because of the latest episode on Paris, I bought a lifetime all access pass to Pimsleur. It includes three family members to have their own accounts and my two adult daughters were thrilled. Every morning as I get ready for the day, I listen to a lesson. I’m SO happy to be on my learning Español again. Muchas gracias, Steve Leveen! PS I bought it on 1/2 price 40% off sale and if leave in cart overnight, it drops to 50%. Will be another Black Friday sale but went for it now.

  • Wonderful

    I just discovered this wonderful podcast this morning and I cannot stop listening to it. I have been attempting to learn the Spanish language for so many years but it has been a struggle. There are little things, as I listen, I hear from the guests that give me hope and make me happy about my journey. I am grateful for this podcast to share and teach everyone who listens!

  • Leveen's Mission: prevent America from becoming Humanity's largest cluster of Monolinguals

    Thought-provoking stories of 'regular' Americans & 'immigrant' Americans and the (more than 1) languages they speak. Food for thought for those in The New World who think that because 'the whole world speaks English', no effort would be necessary to add an extra dimension to their lives, by venturing into a second language, a second culture ... abroad.

    Listened to all 8 (so far) and can't wait to hear what's next.
