Intermediate Egyptian Arabic New Edition (Learn Arabic with the Michel Thomas Method)

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. - New Yorker, From Easy, Tiger, Language Lessons on the Road

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. The Michel Thomas Italian course organises verbs into logical groups which helps you pick them up fast. And perhaps more importantly, it shows you how to use this grammar to build useful sentences.

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 or you’ve just understood me!
