WHY IS THE METHOD SO SUCCESSFUL?
'What you understand, you know; and what you know, you don't forget.' - Michel Thomas
Before there was machine learning, there was Michel Thomas. For over 50 years he worked on decoding languages by breaking them down into their most essential component parts. These ‘building blocks’ are introduced to the learner sequentially in such a way that you reconstruct the language for yourself - to form your own sentences, to say what you want, when you want. This unique method draws on the principles of instructional psychology. Knowledge is structured and organized so that you absorb the language naturally and don't forget it. The method allows the brain to work in the way which accepts learning in a seemingly painless, very exciting and highly motivating way.
HOW DO THE COURSES WORK?
‘All stress inhibits true and effective learning’ – Michel Thomas
During a course, you will join a Michel Thomas Method
teacher and two students in a live lesson, learning from both their successes and their mistakes to keep you motivated and involved throughout the course. You, as the learner, become the third student and participate actively in the class. Within the very first hour you will be able to construct simple phrases by listening and thinking out answers for yourself without the pressure of writing or stress of having to memorize. You will learn at your own pace, pausing and repeating where necessary.

WHAT OUR LEARNERS ARE SAYING
‘The thrill is that you’re actually figuring it out on your own. You’re engaging with another language,
not just parroting it… It’s an excellent way to start, and leaves the listener thinking, Hey, Ich kann
do dis.’ -David Sedaris, New Yorker

I’ve used Michel Thomas to get off the starting block for French, Italian and Spanish and I’m always surprised by how much I can say after only a few hours of listening. - Katie Harris, Blogger joyoflanguages.com

“ I experienced the same sort of pleasure that you got from suddenly getting a crossword clue right or cracking a code...the finger-snapping moment of, Oh My God!
I’ve just understood what you’ve said to me in Spanish!! ” - Peter O’S. Løvstrøm, Actor
