PLEASE KNOW THIS BEFORE YOU BEGIN :

What you are about to discover in this book is a wholly novel way of learning and teaching Hindiamp;, which you have never seen before, even if you already know or teach Hindiamp;. Believe me, even if you JUST READ every word of this book, patiently and thoughtfully, you will understand how to make your own Hindiamp; sentences and speak Hindiamp; with confidence.

The significant factor in the approach and structure of this book is the input over number of years from the students regarding their needs and difficulties in learning Hindiamp;. Thus, while putting this book together, first consideration is given to the fact that learners may not know the Hindiamp; (Devanaagari) script if they came from the countries outside India or from the provinces of India where Hindiamp; not the first language. For such first time Hindiamp; learners, the complete package includes a 20-step Programmed Text Book, 20-step Course Syllabus, 20-step Homework Book, 20-stepTeachers guide, Four Quarterly Tests and two Hindiamp; Speaking CD/ that tell how to say Hindiamp; Letters, Words and Sentences, and Hindiamp; as well as English Transliteration Fonts CD. With this lightly priced full package, the Teachers can monitor the progress of their students in a programmed manner; the Learners can feel their daily improvement; and the parents can witness the proof of the progress of their children. Many people living in Guyana, the West Indies, Suriname, Fiji, Canada, USA, UK, Africa and Europe; also children of Indian parents living outside India, so also many students in India, learning the English Medium Schools and in the non-Hindiamp; speaking Indian provinces, want to learn Hindiamp; through English Medium. For them, this is perfect level-I Hindiamp; learning book.

What is unique of this book is my innovative but proven scientific method of teaching Hindiamp;, even to absolutely new learners. Here, purposefully, the consonants are discussed first and then the vowels. Within the consonants, the characters are grouped into sets based on their shapes. With this new way, even absolutely new learners learn to read Hindiamp; within a very short time of only few hours. Unique charts are key tools in this book. One of them you will find on the back cover of this book, in the form of the  Chart of Hindiamp; Alphabet. In our Institute it is a large 3 x 4 size poster. Students love it.

Many excellent books are written to learn Hindiamp; through Hindiamp; medium or through English Medium, but in the usual way of providing you pre-made Hindiamp; sentences. It means they must assume that the self-learners already know Hindiamp; well enough to follow the book. Here the learner s purpose has to be to  improve the skill, rather than  to learn the language from level zero. How suitable is a book written in the very language that a learner is trying to learn? For example, is it a good idea to learn Chinese through a book written in Chinese? The learning book must be written in a language the learner already knows, and it must teach how to MAKE your own sentences, and not through pre-made Hindiamp; sentences. The teachers and learners who teach or self-learn Hindiamp;, through a book written in Hindiamp; must appreciate this basic difference, if they are serious in achieving full benefit for their efforts.

The Hindiamp; teachers and learners who use books written in Hindiamp; medium and pre-made, will at first surely hesitate to try this new method, but they should rest assured that once they discover the astonishing effectiveness of this book, they will be glad to have given it a try.

For  teaching Hindiamp; from level zero, in this book it is first assumed that the reader does not know Hindiamp; at all. Thus, right from Lesson one till the end, you will notice the meticulous care assuring that the material discussed on every page deals ONLY with the information covered in previous pages, a common sense but very rarely practiced. In addition, after every step, the material covered up to that point is cumulatively reviewed under a novel entry called,  what we have learned so far. This cumulative learning is one of the beautiful aspects of this book.

While learning Hindiamp;, you must understand how to make your own sentences, rather than memorize pre-made  pet-sentences. By remembering the pet-sentences you and people may think you have learned Hindiamp; in a week, but then you will have to wait until you get an opportunity to use the pre-made sentences that you remember. However, by knowing the simple technique given in this book, for making your own sentences to express your original thoughts, all you have to remember is the technique, and then the sky is the limit. You may still have to use some English vocabulary and speak thus : Please have a cup of tea caaya ka kpa LaIijayae (chaay kaa cup lijiye), or, this is my car yah maerI kar hE (yah meriamp; caar hai), but now-a-days it is quite alright. In fact, in India it is a common fashion to speak  Hinglish language. The Hindiamp; movies are full of it.

In this book you will discover unique Tables, Charts and Noble Truths that I have discovered, after long research and contemplation, to reveal the inner structure of the Hindiamp; language, like no other book does. You will find them useful, interesting and educational. With these scientific and easy to follow tools, JUST BY MASTERING THE USE OF TABLES 18, 23 AND 25, YOU CAN GRADUALLY START MAKING AND SPEAKING YOUR OWN SENTENCES QUICKLY AND WITH CONFIDENCE.

Another uncommon but valuable feature in this book is  Answers and word meanings (in English transliteration as well as in Hindiamp;) for all Questions asked in the Exercises and Examples, this makes it a true self-tutor,  without any help form anyone whatsoever. Without this idea, the self learners would have been left in the dark and helpless, wondering at each question,  Did I Get it Right? and  Did I Say it Correctly? I have many Guyanese, West Indian, Canadian and South Indian students who want to learn to  speak in Hindiamp;, without any particular preference to writing it, other than writing their name etc. Even for them, who want to learn Hindiamp; without a teacher and wholly through transliteration, this book is right one.

If you like this book, please use my Hindiamp; level II book for further learning. You will greatly benefit.

Thank uou,
