About this listen
It's a great feeling to know you can be who you are without fear or embarrassment. Our language courses are designed to be fun and easy to follow. The format is easy. You hear the words or phrases spoken in English followed by the translation. Not once, but twice with pauses in between allowing you maximum opportunity for learning. You'll be amazed at how quickly you pick it up using this proven system.
We have covered all of the most likely situations you may face and have prepared you with the key words and phrases most commonly used. In this modern age you will most likely have a cell phone and wear a watch and consequently we have avoided tedious chapters on telling the time, counting and things you can point to. Instead, we have replaced them with more of what you may need.
Our programmes are ideal if you are taking a short break or making a business trip. Everything from hiring a car, checking in to your hotel, sightseeing, shopping, eating out, from meeting people to dealing with emergencies is covered in topical chapters that you can access instantly on your audio player.
Make the most of your travels with our 'Jump into' language courses, available in Spanish, German, Italian, Dutch, and French. "My friends laughed when the waiter walked up to me and asked what I wanted..... But when I ordered for everyone...."

Story
Do you get frustrated when you're on vacation and you can't make yourself understood? Or maybe you'd like to be appreciated by the locals and your family for making an effort? Maybe you don't want to come across as that guy who thinks everyone should speak English? I was that guy once. We went on vacation to Costa Rica, and in the more remote places we went, not a single person spoke English. I ended up miming things to bemused locals, or saying English words really slowly, and I felt really dumb. By the end of the trip, I vowed I wouldn't put myself in that situation again.

Hi friends, my name is Glenda, and teaching foreign languages is my passion! There are a lot of different ways to learn a language—studying books, taking a class, or even watching foreign movies. But I’m an auditory learner. I have to hear and repeat the language to make it stick. In fact, when I was a teenager taking Spanish classes, I would often make my own (cassette) recordings and study for my tests by listening to them. All learning methods are valid! But there is only one you can so anytime and anywhere, and that’s what you’ll experience with this audiobook.
