Learn languages the natural way!We learn languages best by listening and repeating, not by memorizing grammar rules. LEX's audio materials create an immersion-style environment where you can learn naturally.
"The LEX / Hippo program represents the perfect embodiment of what we know to be true about language and learning." -Dr. Suzanne Flynn, Professor of Linguistics and Language Acquisition at MIT |
LEX Audio Materials are available as MP3s or CDs for years of learning and enjoyment. You may purchase MP3s online or via your Fellow (language club facilitator) or the LEX office.
