The
most comprehensive basic course available!
Linguaphone has provided a basic, beginning course
that has not only proven to be incredibly successful
in getting students up and speaking the language
in no time at all, but provides a wealth of information
over and above the average beginning package –
an outstandingly effective AND enjoyable learning
experience. The PDQ course, through Linguaphone’s
highly successful teaching methodology, will provide
substantial opportunity to practice all four skill
areas in Turkish: speaking, listening, reading and
writing. AND, the material is designed to take the
student way beyond the typical tourist expressions.
On-the-go learning
+ workbook!
PDQ is the only basic-level language course that
gives you the flexibility to learn on-the-go . .
. while commuting to work, while excercising, or
anywhere you can listen to an audio CD. Plus,
you get a wonderful and effective full-color workbook
that helps you learn even more when you have the
opportunity to sit down and learn as well. So
with PDQ you get the best of both worlds!
Just what kinds
of things are taught in a PDQ course?
Just a few of the many areas covered by PDQ:
-Meeting people for the first time.
-Asking a question, ordering food & drink.
-Starting a conversation, getting to know someone.
-Talking about friends and family.
-Finding your way around and asking directions.
-Talking about your home and where you live.
-Renting a car and sightseeing.
500 building blocks…
Linguaphone’s PDQ course provides a base
of 500 vocabulary words in key sentence constructions
that make it easy for you to continue to build your
knowledge of the language and allow you to focus
on the language that you will actually use. Learning
through exposure to native speakers not only helps
you to perfect your accent and pronunciation, but
helps you to speak and understand the language at
a normal rate – this is definitely not one
of those “dumbed-up and slowed-down”
courses.
Uniquely Linguaphone
components…
Course materials are comprised of 4 60-minute
audio CDs, and an accompanying full-color, 64-page
. bilingual instruction book. You’ll not only
hear how to correctly pronounce the days of the
week, but see that in Turkish they are not capitalized,
and that the first day of the week on the Turkish
calendar is Monday, and not Sunday.
A great start,
but from here?
Linguaphone has a wide
variety of Tukish learning materials to add to your PDQ learning experience,
while you’re still working the basic course,
or when you’re ready to move on. From courses
that are purely audio (the allTalk series), those
that focus on all-skill development (the Pro
series).
