Excellent, the quickest I've ever learnt a language and fun to do. Perfect tempo for learning fast but not too fast a tempo.

Rapid way to learn a language, amazing

How well you get on with Pimsleur might depend on your learning style. If 'listen and repeat' works for you then you'll hit the ground running with this series. If, however, you are more of a visual learner, you might find not being able to see the words you're saying hampers your progress. I fall into the latter category and hence my first attempts with Pimsleur Icelandic were not crowned with splendour, shall we say?! I chose to work in a couple of phone apps instead and progressed reasonably, and could make myself understood in a basic way on a recent visit to Iceland. However, my problem was in understanding any answers! But everyone was very encouraging, and one Belgian guy suggested Pimsleur and I told him why I hadn't got on with it before. But when I got home I thought now I know more of the words and pronunciations/spelling, I might get on better with it and be able to 'see' the words better in my mind, and it's just sitting there on my Audible so why not? I had a few consecutive days with time enough spare to spend half hours listening and repeating, and it went much better. How I will manage when they introduce new words that I'm unfamiliar with I'm not sure, but that initial hurdle has been overcome for me. The narrator amuses me because he reminds me of William Shatner so it's nice to think I'm being taught by Kirk 😆 The native speakers are male and female, reasonably clear, and not too exaggeratedly slow (except when they're breaking down the words for you) which is good, because no amount of book prep can prepare you for the speed at which Icelanders speak, nor the way they have of blurring the words together and dropping off letters that you painstakingly learned and pronounced all of! But I guess we all do that in our native languages. If any further recommendation is required...I've bought the next set - so you can't have any better praise than that, can you?! I just wish they were 10 lessons each for one of my previous audible credits, not only five. If you've read this far, I'll just explain the only reason I dropped the 5th star was down to the possible issue for some with the learning styles as previously mentioned.

I’m really enjoying this. I can feel it working my brain out and I cannot wait to progress. I’m definitely sticking with this. The repetition is a great way to get this stuck in the brain but also not in a monotonous way — I like that it focuses solely on listening and speaking at this stage.

Excellent
