I did not know any French so this program was perfect for me. It has a very extensive vocabulary for a beginner. I would highly recommend it for anyone who is just learning the language. If you have already taken a French course you should get a more advanced product.

This review is from: EuroTalk Interactive - Talk Now! Learn French (CD-ROM)

I was expecting more from this software. I mean, I thought I'd be able to learn more things from it. It's really basic and limited. I did the whole thing in less than a week. I was expecting more from it; more content, varied activities (they're kind of repetetive and even boring to a certain extent). I don't recommend this product for people like me, fast learners who get bored easily. I recommend it for teenagers and kids that are real beginners of French. Not me. :(

I agree with those who describe this course as very limited - little content, and trades on the flash notion that because it's got computer graphics, you can teach language more effectively. Not so. Summing up: a course for babies.
