Pimsleur teacher discount

Pimsleur gives teachers 54% off its All Access Lifetime plan and 30% off its All Access Annual plan. You qualify if you’re a PreK-12 teacher, a university instructor or another education professional employed by an accredited school or institution. Pimsleur also mentions instructors and aides, so if you work in a classroom without the title of teacher, apply and your role is checked when you verify.

Pimsleur teaches 50+ languages through audio lessons you can take anywhere. If you’re a Spanish teacher brushing up over winter break, an ESL teacher adding a language your students speak at home, or a teacher who just wants a new language for the commute, this is the full course at a lower price. The subscription includes the app and offline lesson downloads, so lessons work in the car or anywhere without a signal.

How To Get The Pimsleur Educator Discount

  1. Open Pimsleur’s educator discount page and choose Check Your Eligibility.
  2. Verify that you work in education. Pimsleur verifies through SheerID, and you can upload a valid school ID, a recent paystub or official documentation. SheerID may ask for more documentation if the first upload isn’t enough.
  3. Check your email. Once you’re verified, Pimsleur sends you a discount code.
  4. Pick the All Access Lifetime plan for 54% off or the All Access Annual plan for 30% off, enter the code and start your first lesson.

Check the total at checkout before you pay, so you can see the discount applied to the plan you picked.

What To Know Before You Buy

The discount is for new subscriptions only, so if you already pay for Pimsleur you can’t apply it to your current plan. It applies to every language Pimsleur offers, and the discount lasts for the length of your subscription. If your job changes, the rate stays active until the end of your subscription period.

Switching or adding languages is included at no extra cost, which matters if you start with Spanish and get curious about French in a few weeks. Each user can also invite 3 more people to the account, and they can use all the tools. You can cancel any time with no penalty.

The Lifetime plan gets the bigger discount and the Annual plan the smaller one. If you know you’ll still be using Pimsleur in a couple of years, Lifetime is the one to look at. If you want to try it for a school year, Annual is the easier yes. Pimsleur doesn’t list plan prices on its educator page, so you’ll see the actual amounts once you’re verified.
