What is different about these products? International Linguistics Corporation produces an extensive set of materials to acquire the foreign language, especially in Spanish, French, German, and English. It is not a beginning program that teaches a limited number of phrases. It is a full course of study. When purchasing language programs, we recommend that you examine the product to determine whether it is a beginning program or a full course of study.
International Linguistics uses a large number of illustrations to enable
the learner to think directly from picture to foreign language. Some
language programs mix English and foreign words in the same sentence,
preventing thinking in the foreign language. Translation decreases the
ability to think in the foreign language, whereas the use of pictures
increases the ability to think in the foreign language.
International Linguistics employs native speakers of foreign languages
so that you hear only authentic pronunciation. Some programs may not use
native speakers. It is recommended that you inquire whether all the
speakers are native speakers before you purchase a language program.
Each level of the Beginning program outlined below is equivalent to one year of high school.
Completion of the three years is equivalent to three years of high school. Three to four years are also equivalent to one year of college study.
Although the three levels are equated with high school and college levels, students acquire far more vocabulary and understanding of the spoken language than in the traditional school setting.
Furthermore, the method of instruction is distinctively different from the standard high school and college grammar course.
You will be experiencing the language in meaningful situations. You will
not be memorizing grammatical rules and you will not be translating from
English to the foreign language. You will learn the foreign language by
looking at the pictures and thinking directly in the foreign language.
The method of instruction is similar to the way you acquired English as
a child. All programs designed by International Linguistics Corporation
starting with the beginning programs entitled The Learnables® provide a
sequenced picture system with accompanying audio recordings and text.
You will easily understand and retain the language of each lesson. Your
understanding of the language assures you that you will be able to talk
as soon as you learn a sufficiently large vocabulary to engage in
conversation.
Note: The full four levels or years are not available in every language.
