Spanish With Michel Thomas (Eight audio CDs)

 Images P 0071381643.01. Aa400 Sclzzzzzzz I like this eight-CD Spanish language instruction program because I'm not required to consciously memorize words or do drills or exercises.

The instructor, a German guy named Michel Thomas has developed a teaching method that gets you started speaking Spanish from the very first lesson. On the CDs, he sits with two students, a male and a female, neither of which has ever learned a lick of Spanish before.

The Amazon reviews for Thomas's teaching method read like testimonials from religious converts. Count me in his Cult.

Each lesson is just five or six minutes long, making one easy to fit into your day. I have all eight CDs on my iPod, so whenever I have a few spare minutes, I take a lesson. Link
