I just tried the free Pimsleur lesson on their website and I really liked it. The only issue I have is learning words and not knowing how to spell them.
If I look it up on Google Translate, it won't necessarily be in the correct tense/mood. As a visual learner, I do need the writing and spelling to accompany the Pimsleur, but I'm not sure how to best supplement it. I heard the Penguin Russian books were quite good? Would these show me the vocab that I'm learning in Pimsleur?
Im planning in got use teachers and tutors on here too.
Thanks!
You need to learn to read and write in Russian.
Step by step. :)
Do not afraid! It's easy.
I used Pimslur mehod to learn Spanish, I am completly begginer in Spanish though. You can practise speaking from the first day. In addition, you can practise reading after the third lesson.

As also used Pimsleur in my early days in the russian language. I started at the same time with Assimil and Pimsleur. I used to recognised words in Assimil that I heared in Pimsleur.
I think that even if you don't have the word list, Pimsleur is a great method to get to play quickly with the tongue. But you shouldn't use only pimsleur, get yourself a good book such as Teach Yourself or Assimil.
Bonne chance !
I* also used Pimsleur...
