Customer Feedback
"Just when you think you have seen everything there is to see in foreign
language instruction, Power-Glide surprises you! This is the company that
created the innovative languge program which immerses the student in an
adventure while learning a new language. Their tape and workbook courses are
fabulousˇ. Power-Glide is the true innovator in language instruction."
- Christine F.
"Speaking and thinking spontaneously in a foreign language is
challenging, but is an important goal that is hard to achieve with traditional
programs. In Power-Glide courses, emphasis is not on mechanics and rote
learning. This course aims to teach children in a manner that simulates natural
language acquisition."
Stepanie Heese, reviewer, The Review Corner
"Thirty years ago, in Guatemala, I used Dr. Blair's materials
and they were the best I had ever seen. Now that I could test the materials
with more than 40 students in various classes, I am even more convinced that
they are the best language teaching materials in existence today."
Herbert Horne, linguist, former teacher for Wycliffe Bible Translators, and
current homeschool co-op administrator.
"Most curriculum developers seem to have forgotten what it was
like to sit endlessly in a classroom listening and pretending to be interested
in boring subject material, but not Dr. Blair."
Susan Moore, reviewer, Editor's Choice
"As one who designs educational programs for individual
students in our school, I must tell you how impressed I have been with the
Power-Glide material. I was able to examine the second year course material for
our community college. Your course is more comprehensive!"
Linda Rittner, Director, Pleasant Hill Academy
"Miles beyond the traditional text in creativity and interest
level."
Cathy Duffy, Author, Christian Home Educators' Curriculum Manual
"Power-Glide delivers what it promises. With this course you
won't be intimidated to teach a foreign language. Every successful lesson
learned will motivate you to move on to the next one."
Kathy von Duyke, Editor, KONOS Helps!
"Unlike other higher-priced courses, the approach does not
contain repetitive drills, is not strictly hearsay, and does not promise
subliminal learning. It is fast-paced and takes full concentration. The use of
the full-sized textbook included with the tapes makes it a more comprehensive
course than others with twice the number of tapes."
Anne Brodbeck, reviewer for Mary Pride's, Practical Homeschooling
"I really love the way that a concept is presented, used in
various examples and then left for the student to take the next leap and apply
key information in different ways. You can actually watch the light bulb flash
brightly above your child's head! She gets it!"
Nancy Lande, Author, Homeschooling: A Patchwork of Days
"I've been chipping away at Spanish for 20+ years and have
purchased umpteen zillion programs. I was immediately impressed by how much
conversational fluency I felt I gained in the two short hours of my flight
home."
