I was considering the frequency differences as well but all the courses seem to follow the same script.
I was thinking of going to MAGA but the fact that this isn't exactly above board and is dubious on a legal front kind of negates doing this by the books.
It'll have to be free and it'll have to be passed on by word of mouth and by people copying CD's for each other.
The fact that it is a stunningly impressive course kind of excuses the fact that it has to be done in such a back handed way.

Sorry about that. Whenever I answer from the phone, it seems to multiply more and more.
BAH!
Anyway, what I was going to say was that, from what you describe, the method sounds very generic. Look forward to hearing more of your idea.

The rason I left was because of trolls and the fact subject matter never lasted long before everyone bit the bait and brought the conversation off topic.

There is a more cooperative spirit here than there used to be. Let's keep it going.
I also like the sound of this idea and hope to hear more about it.

It was interesting to read your post, I’ve never used the Pimsleur method but have heard it praised, particularly by Americans.
Have you ever come across the Michel Thomas language tapes and CDs? His method is absolutely brilliant. He teaches spoken language, not written, and you learn, or brush-up, your skills at great speed and with relative ease. They are very expensive to buy, but most libraries seem to keep them. They really are a huge improvement on the old book style learning practised when I was at school in the sixties.
I’m not sure if there are any similarities between the Pimsleur and Thomas methods, other, of course, than neither being available for learners of Cornish… yet!
