I hear that Michel Thomas the famous language teacher has died. Has
someone else taken charge of his language teaching business and will
his courses continue?

Dear prayspot-ga;

Thank you for allowing me to answer your interesting question. Indeed
Michel Thomas, the notable language teacher, died on January 8, 2005
at the age of 90.

I contacted the Michel Thomas Language Centers in New York and
inquired about the continuation of the business. I asked if someone
was teaching the courses in the wake of Mr. Thomas? death I was told
that the Language Center is no longer scheduling classes. I also asked
if the Center was being taken over by someone and was told that the
?business was in the process of re-structuring and re-incorporating?.
Upon asking if the Center was planning on offering courses in the
future the person I spoke to said only that I should make inquiries
later in the year for that information and that at the moment they
?are focusing mainly on promoting the books and CD?s?.
