Linkword
language courses are an astonishingly fast way to learn Spanish
(European).
|
The
Linkword method of teaching vocabulary involves picturing
images vividly in your minds eye. For example:
The
Spanish for RICE is ARROZ
(pronounced ARROTH)
Imagine ARROWS landing in
your plate of RICE
Please
remember that there is much more to Linkword than simply
learning vocabulary. Grammar and sentence translation are
also a major part of Linkword courses.

Spanish
(European) Level 1 MP3 Audio course
|
|
A
large number of independent studies have shown the method
used in Linkword courses is up to 3x faster than normal learning
methods. Words will just stick in your mind. Even if you think
you are poor at languages, Linkword will show you that you
can do it.
If
you struggled with languages at school it is almost certainly
not your fault. It is the way you were taught. Level 1 Spanish
(European) will teach you an extensive vocabulary and basic
grammar in 10-12 hours, enough to communicate effectively
in a large number of situations you will meet abroad. It is
ideal for Travel, Business or Schoolwork and for all ages.

About
the author
The author
of the Linkword courses, Dr
Michael Gruneberg, is an internationally recognized expert
in learning methods. He has used his expertise to combine
a large number of scientifically proven techniques in the
Linkword courses in order to make the learning process up
to three times faster than normal language learning methods.
- All
courses are written in conjunction with linguistic experts
to ensure their accuracy.
- Over
60 published studies have shown the underlying method used
in Linkword courses to be highly effective.
- In
one study, for example, Raugh and Atkinson (1975) found
that students using the method remembered 88% of a list
of Spanish words compared to 28% for the group not using
the method.
- In
an article published in the Language learning journal for
2002, Sommer and Gruneberg reported that the end of term
exam results for this class had averaged 54%, compared to
38% for the corresponding class, and that 25% of the class
had been promoted to the class above - something that had
never happened before.
- Dr
Gruneberg has published a number of studies showing the
method to be effective for students, the elderly, school
children, and those poor at language learning.

Other
Linkword Language courses
We sell
Spanish (European) Levels 1-4 courses
in SOFTWARE, AUDIO CD, or MP3 AUDIO formats.
The different formats all use the same Linkword method to
teach vocabulary and grammar.
The AUDIO
and MP3 AUDIO versions allow you to listen to the entire course
in the car, on a personal CD player, or on an MP3 player like
the Apple iPod etc.
The software
or audio versions are equally effective on their own as they
teach the same vocabulary and grammar. However, for those
who wish to learn by both seeing the text and listening to
the entire course, the different versions are highly complementary.
Please

shop to see our complete range of courses. We offer
large savings when you buy different level courses together.

took 12 hours to teach a regime that normally takes 40 hours."

The Guardian

definitely boosted pupil self-esteem"
Times Education Supplement January 2003
Read
the TES review
"The success rate was conspicuous. The pupils developed a very
high level of motivation for language learning as they could see
very rapid progress and they remembered rather difficult vocabulary
for a long period of time using the imagery."
Steffen Sommer, Head of Modern Languages, Rugby School
"What do we recommend for (language course) starters? We have
a very confident answer to the question. We recommend Linkword.
The courses are highly appreciated by the learners - quite simply,
it gives results. We call results an ability to read, speak, and
understand the language in simple terms after 15 - 20 hours."
Michael Woodhall, Director of the Language Centre Bournemouth
University Business School.
"Now you really can learn a language"
Daily Mail
"I tried the course out in both German and French and was amazed
at how quickly it worked"
Jan McCann Toronto Sun
"A simple new way to increase your foreign-language vocabulary...
Samakah means fish. You can remember that by imagining trying to
smack a fish. Smack. Samakah. Smack. Samakah. Yes, you're learning
Arabic one word at a time."
Nada El Sawy, Newsweek
"Unforgettable Memory Joggers"
Sunday Times
"In the end of term result, the average mark with a conventional
approach was 23.75%. This rose to 69% using the Linkword course."
