Product Description

Book Description
earworms mbt© Rapid Languages is the first language trainer to get your toe tapping. You pick up a language simply by listening to catchy and relaxing songs!

Volume 1. is your survival kit of immediately useful words and phrases for your visit abroad, listen a few times to be able to ask for a table in a restaurant, order food and drink, take a taxi, rent a car, buy tickets, deal with money, numbers, times and days, ask for directions, deal with typical problems, hold a simple conversation and more.

Simply by listening to these specially composed melodies with their rhythmic repetitions a few times, the sound patterns are indelibly burned into your auditory cortex.
You will have successfully learned the phrases and have the correct accent ringing in your ears. Wherever you are, whatever you are doing: In the car, while jogging, in the bath, doing the ironing...you can be learning a language at the same time!

Experience something ‘a little different'...after just a few listenings, foreign words will be popping out of your memory...when you least expect them!

From the Publisher
There has been a lot of talk in recent years about improving the way we learn languages and the way we learn in general, to make it better suit the way our brains operate. Learning in rhythm, using repetition to anchor information, learning complete meaningful chunks of language instead of single words, using music to put the learner in the optimal state of conciousness for learning (relaxed but receptive), these are some of the strategies of accelerated learning.
Now, for the first time all of these approaches have been unified into one powerful learning package which make acquiring a language easy, effective and enjoyable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, 17 Nov 2006
By Mr. M. L. Drury "martindrury72" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

Rapid German Volume 1 is superb. Here I am, one week after first listening to it. And I can instantly recall and say loads of different phrases in German. Not just words on their own. Phrases. Complete sentences. It took me years and a trip to Paris to be able to have such confidence in my French. Yet, here I am, able to speak phrases in German. I have tried other language learning products/software. With those products comes all the anxiety of making sure you remember the phrase, get the pronunciation right and remember the word order. This approach to language learning gets rid of all the anxiety, nerves and frustration normally found within the learning process. I have detailed experience in accelerated learning and still, I have not seen anything as good as this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Learn while doing other stuff..., 25 Jul 2007
By Darren Cook - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I enjoyed learning from the Rapid Chinese CD a few months back and so knew what to expect when this arrived. This is a very similar presentation, with the same 10 track titles: I would like...; To order; Have you ...?; To the airport; Numbers; days & times; Is there ...?; Directions; Where, when & what time?; Problems, problems!; and Do you speak English? In fact they have mostly the same phrases. Ordering a bottle of wine somehow seems more natural for German that it did for Chinese!

The way it works is there is a native German-speaking woman and a native English-speaking man. The English comes first then the German. As the track titles above suggest the 10 lessons cover useful phrase book stuff, at the most basic level. All the time there is a music track playing - easy to listen to. I do not know if the music helps memorizing the sentences but it does make the CD easy to have on in the background while working or doing other things. There is a handy 20 page booklet with the CD, which shows all the phrases on the CD, as well as describing the theory behind the learning method.

I did 'O' level German at school, which seemed to be all about learning the 16 words for "the". Thankfully not a mention of that here: ein/eine/einen/zum/zu/der/das/die/etc. are all introduced in context without being pointed out. After my German exam (I passed by the way) all I could speak in German was gutentag and "der das die die, dem dem den den", which does not get you very far. Listening to this CD course, in every school lesson, would have made a lot more sense. And we could have played cards while doing it. (Sadly the only class we actually got away with playing cards in was sociology.)

If we are looking for downsides the CDs are maybe a bit pricey, and are quite passive: no quizzes or chances for active usage of the language. But that is fine, it would not be easy to have on in the background if it was like that. Just do not expect this can be your only tool to learn the language.

Overall I like these EarWorms CDs and they will be my first choice when I want to learn the basics of a new language.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fun and easy way to learn, 11 Nov 2006
By A. Goulden - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been living in Austria for a short time. I did not speak German at all when I arrived. It has given me the courage to talk, instead of just listerning. It is the most natural way to learn a language. I listern in the car, whilst ironing. It is ausgezeichnet.
