Pimsleur offers dialogues that are then broken down and analyzed with repetition of each word and phrase, building up to dialogue practice. The "compact" ten-lesson Haitian Creole set is being offered for free to support relief and reconstruction efforts. However, the "add to cart" download was not working when I tried it on February 13, 2010. Here is the link if you'd like to try: http://www.pimsleuraudio.com/product_info.php?products_id=2614&prodname=Haitian+Creole+Compact+Download
NEW: See comment below--Audible.com offers the same free materials successfully at this link.

Problem solved! Audible.com offers the free Lessons 1-5 and 6-10 in two downloadable two-hour audio files. This solves a Mac platform problem too, because you can open the file from Audible in i-Tunes. It opens as an Audio Book. The Pimsleur approach spends a lot of time on every detail of every syllable, so if you like a thorough, patient, methodical approach, with lots of explanation, these resources should be appealing.
