Three More Languages Available
We have added three more Pimsleur languages to the Freedman Center collection: Greek, Polish, and Hindi.
The following languages are now available:
* French
* German
* Italian
* Spanish
* Japanese
* Russian
* Hebrew
* Greek
* Polish
* Hindi
* Mandarin
* Egyptian Arabic
* Chinese Cantonese
* Brazilian Portuguese
Having used them myself, I highly recommend them! The Pimsleur bookchips are a series of self-instructional 30 minute audio lessons for learning foreign languages. They are free for all Case students, faculty, and staff to use in the Freeman Center. For more on the Pimsleur method, see Pimsleur Direct.
