Product Description
French Plus, the next level in the Pimsleur Language Program. These 10-lessons provide an additional, sophisticated level of language that build upon the language skills acquired in Levels I, II, & III. Upon completion of the Plus program, you will be able to:• move into a more interpersonal exchange of language at a higher level, • converse in a clearly participatory fashion, • use diverse language strategies. For everyone who has completed the French Level I, II, & III -- and can't wait to continue. French Plus includes real-life situations and complex conversations with expanded vocabulary. This program greatly increases your ability to discuss everyday topics in only 10 days. Note: In order for the Pimsleur Method to work correctly, you must first complete the Level I, II, & III language programs before proceeding to the "Plus" Level language program.

If the Pimsleur Levels 1,2, and 3 worked for you, this will, too. It's strictly aural learning, and it's well-paced.
The usual complaints apply as well. There are no break bands in the lessons, so if you're using CDs, it's very inconvenient to review one specific section unless it is right at the beginning of the lesson.
My big complaint is about the content: it's surprisingly focused on the publishing industry. Is that really generalizable to the rest of the language? Do most people learn French so they can work in publishing? Or is it just a way for the publisher of the series to turn a profit on their employee training?
Pimsleur Spanish ended with a scenario of a trip. There was a series of introductions, some general business interaction, some entertaining, and a goodbye party. It seemed much more likely to be useful than a bookseller's convention in Paris.
I know I could foresee more use for the Spanish terms for "meeting agenda", or "dancing" than I could for the French terms for "author's rights" (which they drilled with extraordinary frequency) or "book cover" or "bookstore owner."
