The "10 minutes a day" Program:
The "10 minutes a day" proven methodology guarantees success--all
you have to do is set aside 10 minutes and you'll be on your way. Why 10
minutes a day? Because 10 minutes is doable, it fits easily into your
life and it's not overwhelming.
The program is created so that you can work at your own pace. You set
the pace and you decide when you're ready to move to the next Step.
The book is purposely designed to look like a child's workbook--it's not
intimidating or overwhelming. Instead, it's approachable and engaging
for everyone at any age.
The vocabulary hones in on key essential words that you'll actually use
when traveling. You'll learn Key Question Words so you can ask for those
things you need; money and numbers so you can shop and pay bills;
directions so you can get to your destination smoothly, and so much more
that will make your experience abroad enjoyable.
Study aids and fun activities such as word games, puzzles and
interactive modules are academically designed and strategically
interwoven into the program to help you succeed.
