Frequently Asked Questions
About Accelerated Learning


Q: Exactly what is "Accelerated Learning?"

A: Accelerated Learning recognizes that each of us has an individual preferred way of learning that suits us best. When you learn the techniques that exactly match your personal learning style, you will be learning in the way that is most natural for you. Because it is natural, it is easier; because it is easier, it is faster.


Q: How was it developed-and by whom?

A: Accelerated Learning draws on the work of diverse experts in the field of education and psychology-from Bulgarian Georgi Lozanov who pioneered the use of Baroque music to Howard Gardner of Harvard whose Theory of Multiple Intelligences has become an integral part of our program.


Q: Specifically what does it incorporate?

A: Games and activities. Emotion and music. Relaxation, visualization,role-play, color and learning maps. It all makes for a joyful, stress-free learning environment.


Q: I've seen Accelerated Learning promoted in various publications. Are these programs all the same?

A: Some programs have been advertised as "Accelerated Learning" but, frankly, do not incorporate all of the strategies that we feel are necessary. Other extremely reputable individual trainers and companies do deliver Accelerated Learning in its truest sense. Our programs were largely developed by Colin Rose of the United Kingdom whose original book "Accelerated Learning" was first published more than a decade ago. The current definitive work describing Accelerated Learning is "Accelerated Learning for the 21st Century" co-authored by Colin and Malcolm J. Nicholl, the principal of this website and President of the Accelerated Learning Network of Aurora, Colorado.


Q: Who can benefit the most from Accelerated Learning?

A: Everyone! We believe in lifelong learning-making learning a joyful journey of discovery. It begins from the moment of birth and lasts throughout life. That's why we have developed products and programs for parents of newborns, preschool learners, high school, college students, adults-learners of all ages. There are Accelerated Learning products and programs for teachers, corporate trainers; for use at home, in the school and at the workplace.


Q: Is there one subject in which Accelerated Learning excels above all else?

A: Accelerated Learning is basically a "learn how to learn" program. We have applied its techniques to specific projects including customer service for corporations, and the art of negotiating, as well as strategies for effective teaching in the classroom. But one area in which results have been measured again and again is learning a foreign language. Schoolchildren and corporate executives alike have all been amazed at the speed and effectiveness at which they have been able to learn Spanish, French, German or Italian by themselves at home or through Team Language Learning courses.
