Critic reviews

Review of Paul Noble Method by The City Magazine:

“Relaxing and listening to the CDs, I found that I seemed to absorb the phrases taught, without even consciously trying, and quickly felt confident enough to play around with the different components and make my own sentences.”

Reviews of Collins French with Paul Noble by Amazon customers:

"We both have a basic grasp of the relevant languages but this course is helping to improve our speaking ability better than all the previous attempts we have made. Try it."

"The language is explained in a simple way and the teacher doesn't use complex grammar terms… Instead the teacher more or less just leads you into French so that you find you can more or less start speaking it just a couple of hours in. For me though the absolute best thing about it is that it has allowed me to speak in full, proper sentences in French… A fantastic course and a well deserved 5 stars!"

"At last an easy way to learn a language!

Easy to understand plus an easy one to pop into the car cd player and use on the move, so no more 'I haven't the time… A lot more entertaining than text books and the old fashioned way of learning a different language other than the mother tongue. '"

"Overall, the method being used is superb and I feel it more or less guarantees that someone will be speaking French by the end. This is what has happened to me – and for the first time!"

Great! but a small improvement could be brilliant

I found this course really good but I think if he spelt a few more words out a bit more regularly, I would of learnt a little bit quicker.
Alot of French words look different but sound that same or similar so buy spelling them out would of helped me greatly!
overall a great course though!

My French is better thanks!

I found French a challenge at school. I found this programme by Paul Noble a good way to refresh and improve my French. I find the listening can be a bit dry but that is me not the programme. Some great devices and ways of thinking about language plus the ability to stop and replay helps with getting the phrasing and the language right. More practise to do but I am enjoying the style of teaching.

French tuition.

I have been taking a weekly French Conversation class for, possibly 2 years now. I desperately need to 'go back to the books'. I am looking forward to starting Learn French the natural Way, with Paul Noble. I am really pleased I joined Audible.co.uk. Buying on-line audio books is so easy.

An excellent way to learn - tried and tested!

I have never been very good at languages, but downloaded all four parts of this course in preparation for a recent family holiday to France. The method Paul uses works well, and I found I was able to make rapid progress after just a few days listening to the course on my way to and from work.

When on holiday I found I had the confidence to do the usual holiday things like ask for directions, reserve tables, order in restaurants and buy tickets for tourist attractions. I even surprised my family by stopping a passer-by in the street on the first day and checking whether or not I had to pay for parking in the town square!

It's a testament to this course that since returning from France, I have continued to listen to the final "review" lesson (part 4) to keep up the knowledge I've gained. Thoroughly recommended.

Brilliant

Really does work using this method. I try to do little and often but even if I've left learning weeks I still quickly pick it up again due to the teaching style.
