Marathon Language Learning Consultancy

Marathon offers self-directed study guides, private instruction, and other language services. We are technicians and academics, teaching massive vocabulary acquisition and nonstop language learning.

We show Executive Assistants, A-Type MBAs, secretaries, diplomats, ITAs and gifted teens how to learn languages one verb at a time via foreign language and ESL self-instruction techniques. All of them.

Complete Coverage of All Language Skills

The courses and texts cover all four skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. We feature only coursework, mostly black print, no white spaces, no stick-figure drawings, and no gimmicks.

Massive Vocabulary Acquisition Techniques for French, Spanish and the major World Languages; see sample French lessons.
Advanced Study Techniques for English as a Second/Foreign Language (ESL, EFL); see sample ESL lessons.
Academic Test Preparation for TOEFL, SAT, GMAT, GRE, GED; see sample language learning techniques.

This Hooked-on-Languages approach is also called Accelerated Language Learning, Self-Directed Study, Self-Instruction, Independent Learning, and Teach-Yourself-a-Language.

Our approach is not necessarily fun, quick, or easy. We're not offering 12 cassettes for $275; our contribution is a pair of study manuals for $10.00 each.
