This review is from: All-Audio German CD (LL(R) All-Audio Courses) (Audio CD)

I have gone through only two CD's so far, and already I can tell that the overall format is fantastic. This CD's covers everything from basics ... the alphabet, numbers, days of week & months, and also makes use of modern verbage. It also includes bits of useful information on culture ... as to what is accepted or not. What makes this CD a very good tool is that it does use English to tell you what is being said, and it also quizzes you at the end of each lesson ... asking you in English to speak & answer in German. The answer is then spoken in German, after a comfortable pause, to check yourself. As with most lauguage learning tools, repetition is the key, and it is easily done via CD.

This review is from: All-Audio German CD (LL(R) All-Audio Courses) (Audio CD)

I can't do any comparison because this is my first such purchase but I can tell you that it is effective and easy to use. I have been using these cds and it has taken me very far in only a few days. The speakers aren't annoying and the flow and pauses are good and I really like the tests given at the end of the lessons when they expect you to fill in the words for the conversation. My only complaint is that the book that comes with the cds places the words in it, in alphabetical order according to the german words and phrases instead of in english. This makes it tougher to quickly find the word you are looking for. These cds are basically set up to teach you german over a course of about 35 weeks, one lesson per week. Although I have gone completely through two lessons in less than one week and am already starting the third so time may vary.

The CD set is perfect for those that are just starting to learn the German language. It starts out with the essentials with each following lesson building on the one before. The speakers are clear so that you can learn the correct pronounciation of the words. They also go through formal German conversation with informal conversation following. Overall, I recommend this CD to anyone who is interested in learning German.
