Ongoing language learning in a cultural context

Produced entirely in Europe by professional broadcasters and journalists, each audiomagazine consists of an hour-long program on audio cassette or CD packed with news, features, and interviews. A booklet containing a word-for-word transcript and an extensive glossary accompanies the audio component. In addition to translations of difficult words and phrases, the glossaries contain copious biographical, historical, political, and cultural notes prepared by seasoned editors--many of whom also write for some of the world's most prestigious newspapers and magazines. Optional Audio Flashcards and printed Study Supplements with listening exercises and grammar drills are also available for each issue of the German, Spanish and Italian programs. Champs-Elysées Plus, an enhanced audio study supplement (audio CD with printed booklet) is also available for each issue of the French program.
