Awesome product!
This is awesome, not only can you easily find WHAT to say but you hear HOW to say it also
a bit faffy
I downloaded the cd contents to my ipod as instructed - all very easy to follow. You choose a topic that you want to learn such as food or emergencies then listen to the girls voice introducing common starter sentences that you can then build up using words that follow eg 'I would like' 'a beer' then 'I would like a beer. You learn the start of the sentence then common words so you are building up your vocabularly and your confidence as you go along. I didn't like the menu structure and found it a pain scrolling to the situation i wanted to learn. I found I learnt better when the girl was speaking AND I was looking at the words onscreen - when i just listened to the audio the words and sentences just didn't make sense or I repeated them wrongly. As a beginner I found it OK but am not sure this was the best medium for me to learn a new language. I didn't like the girls voice either!
Well worth it!
This was well worth the money. It has a wide range of vocabulary and is so easy to use on the ipod. There is a book to accompany it which is great if you don't want to stare at your ipod or you listen on your shuffle as I do sometimes.
