Basic Creole a Great Help!,
By karmen parsons (Montana USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Creole (Kreyol): An Introduction to the Language of Haiti (Audio Cassette)
I had heard of Library Journal's positive review and am glad tosay I concur. The course is well-packaged and extremely well-recorded and organized. It's a huge help for the visitor to Haiti and is reasonably priced.

Not quite worth the price,
By N. Schmidt (Pasadena, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Creole (Kreyol): An Introduction to the Language of Haiti (Audio Cassette)
40 bucks is pretty hefty for what you get. I expected that at least they would have used both sides of the tape. The rather thin book seems to have been put together at Kinko's.

I've Been To Haiti,
By Dan D. Moseley (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Basic Creole (Kreyol): An Introduction to the Language of Haiti (Audio Cassette)
I hope I have some measure of credibility in spite of the fact that my last name happens to be the same as the author's!I have traveled to Haiti twice and feel the course is of inestimable value. The dictionary includes all the words I would need in normal tourist-to-Haitian conversations...and then some. The voices on the cassette are well-modulated and easy to understand. The course itself is clear and well-organized. It seems to include all the information any traveler would need on a visit. One criticism: there are no pauses on the tape, and it's difficult to assimilate the information without stopping the tape in several places. But that's actually not a problem. I would rate this course 5 out of 5 because, although not exhaustive, the course includes much more information than I could ever use, the materials are attractively packaged, and the lessons are well-organized and easy to follow.
