Editorial Review:Product Description:TRANSP LANG LRN ENGL NOW! FOR SPAN SPEAKERS UK
Amazon.co.uk Review:Learn German Now! 9.0 comes with two CDs, one of which has various key sections--useful "survival phrases", fun activities, conversations and practising speech against the voice of a native speaker. The other CD has a thorough grammar tutorial. This combination is certainly a valuable one for people who are serious about learning a language, and the product is clear and easy to use: in role-plays, phrases are highlighted in a box and their English translations placed underneath, while the voice recognition software allows you to measure your own voice against that of a native speaker and the games hone the things that have been learned. Sections are tailored to various activities, such as getting around, going out and business situations, while at any point you can call up a grammar tutorial that will explain a topic in more detail.
The section on survival phrases will be of much use to those who have already reached a basic level. There are several practice dialogues based on common situations--in the hotel, the bar, the airport, etc.--with some examples that demonstrate a wicked sense of humour. Although some of the advice borders on the infantile ("When you decide to travel outside the USA, you will probably need a passport"), much of it is useful and rounds out a well-composed package for someone starting out on the road to using the language overseas. --

Well i've had this programme for all of a day and i already think its well worth its money. Whilst some may find the method of teaching a little daunting at first; i can assure you if you stick with it you will see results. Listen and practice repeating the conversations with the programme and write key phrases down in a notebook. You are not suppose to understand every word. So long as you follow the dialogues you'll pick up the basics.

Not at all useful for beginners. Most of the chapters on the CD are even listed as "intermediate". I'm a native German speaker and bought this for my boyfriend, and when I checked my pronounciation, I was told to "work on it"!!!

One of the powerful points of this product is the syntax explanation of each word in every sentence, particularly usuful in learning german. The pronunciation practice is very good, in general the listening-speaking practice of this product is very well designed. Each of the four titles focuses on different grammatical and vocabulary themes, therefore it is necessary to work in all the four together and not one after the completion of the other. The exercises are good for vocablary building, but ...
