Linguaphone’s self-study courses follow Linguaphone's in-house methodology of 'Listen, Understand, Speak'. Students are encouraged to listen to the language from the beginning, to begin to read as they listen and only to speak once they have learnt to understand the language presented.
Linguaphone was established in 1901 by Jacques Roston, a translator and language teacher, born in Poland, (Koło), and they were the first language training company to recognise the potential of combining the traditional written course with the wax cylinder and later with records.
