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!"

I bought this so that I would have a greater understanding of what was being said to me on holiday. It would be incredibly useful if Paul could consider doing a holiday guide. Most of what we learnt on this course was informal and I struggled to know how to reply in a formal setting. Having said that, this guide really helped me to grasp what was being said. Thank you, Paul!

Wonderful!

Seemed to be a slight glitch at the end of one track. But it didn't affect its usefulness.

Good

Just discovered this and find it incredibly useful as a learning aid. I would like a similar guide in Italian but cannot find it - surely as there is a French Conversation and a Spanish Conversation there should be an Italian one? Come on Paul, please record an equivalent Italian one. these are such a help.

Brilliant!

This is the first time out of many that I’ve really been able to engage with French teaching - it’s not only perfectly structured but also reassuringly positive and encouraging. My only slight reservation is that the male reader’s speech is rather mumbled - I realise that we are learning to follow real French speakers, but it’s difficult at this stage if the voice is indistinct. Otherwise I love it!

In my view Paul Noble is one of the finest language teachers who ever set their mind to assisting others to learn their chosen language. I have all of his audio books for both French and Italian and from the very first listen I was absolutely hooked. Having hated languages at school I have come quite late to the joys and primarily this has been due to the methods of teaching I had which did nothing for me to promote learning. From the first day of listening to Paul’s Beginners French course I couldn't wait to find the time for myself to get back to learning. His very natural conversational style of teaching and explaining concepts is completely wonderful. The books are all so good that I have made repeated listens which I guess is what you want to encourage learners to do for foreign language learning. I have supported Pauls brilliant support with a well known Owl based App which has its merits but doesn't explain anything and really doesn't get you speaking and understanding why you are saying what you are. The problem was that as much as I have advanced to the point I can very confidently read and understand written French at a good level now, I still cannot understand a word I hear when spoken by French natives. I was planning to have lessons online and will still do that but just in time Paul releases his newest French book which addresses that issue head on. I am working my way slowly through this and at times I wonder if the course is making a difference but after only about 4 weeks I had something of an epiphany when I realised that as if by magic the understanding of the dialogues, but more importantly my ability to process how words link has improved exponentially. It really has been something of a shock how it has happened and I am amazed. This man is a genius and I am eternally grateful to him for his efforts,

Just what I needed at the right time
