Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Boring, teadious and repeatitive...
I was so exited about the course because of amounts of good reviews it has.... However a total disappointment... So boring and repeatitive that I didn't even finish the 3rd lesson!!! They read and explain 5 times for about 10 minutes a 1 minute conversation. For me it was a waste of money. I would not recommend it.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent for training the ear and improving the accent

You're not going to learn HOW to speak French with this series (you should already ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Disappointed
I am really an intermediate student rather than beginner, but thought I'd start with the beginner CDs in this series. Like most intermediate students of a language, I need to work on listening comprehension. This program does strive for that, but in my opinion offers too few opportunities to listen to native French speakers. Too repetitious--I kept falling asleep, or having trouble paying attention. Can't believe I bought these CDs! The narrator keeps repeating points he had already made...I ... Read More
