Gleim Publishing's Private Pilot Audio Course prepares you for the FAA knowledge exam while you drive your car, exercise, mow the lawn, or whatever else you like to do while listening to a CD player. When coupled with the Gleim Written Test Prep guides or software, the audio course teaches you everything you need to know to pass the test with flying colors, and for a fraction of the cost of VHS courses.
Audio courses are one of the most effective ways to learn. They allow you to concentrate with fewer distractions, and require you to visualize the concepts in your own mind. The result is greater retention of the subject manner. The Gleim course is lively and highly efficient, teaching you exactly what you need to know and providing helpful memory retention tricks like pneumonics. (A sample lecture is available for download below.)
After listening to the Gleim audio lecture on one of the 11 covered topics (see below), you will be able to confidently and correctly answer all of the FAA questions on that subject. Each chapter/lecture features 30-40 minutes of audio and requires an additional 60 minutes of studying and answering the questions in the corresponding Gleim FAA Test Prep book or software. Rarely will you need to listen to an audio lecture a second time. Most pilots using the combination of audio course and book or software are able to prepare for their FAA Private Pilot Knowledge Exam in less than 20 hours total time.
