Our story courses seem to be most effective for learners who have had some contact with the language before (in school, on travels, or through self study).

We provide basic language in context, spoken at natural speed. By listening and repeating words, phrases and sentences as often as you can, the music of the language will go into your ear and into your brain. It's a good start for learning to sound like a native speaker.
