Paul Pimsleur (October 17, 1927 – June 22, 1976) was a French-American linguist and scholar in the field of applied linguistics.

THE PIMSLEUR METHOD

Graduated Interval Recall

Dr. Pimsleur’s research on memory was perhaps one of his most revolutionary achievements. He discovered that if learners were reminded of new words at gradually increasing intervals, each time they would remember longer than the time before. Dr. Pimsleur documented the optimal spacing for information to move from short-term into long-term, or permanent, memory. Graduated Interval Recall mirrors the easy, natural way a child learns a new language, and we’ve incorporated these intuitive language study methods into our courses and lessons. This theory is at the base of all the Pimsleur programs.

Dr. Pimsleur’s research demonstrated that new connections are activated whenever this dynamic system is triggered. By systematically asking for understanding, pausing for a response, and then reinforcing the correct response, Pimsle
