If you're trying to learn German, in depth, then you should by one of the modern language programs which are more up to date. I got this software back in 1999 while I was in highschool. It was great for teaching me the basics. I got straight A's in German 1; I never took German 2 because I graduated. Wish I had though. In this software, after you learn the basics you are thrown into a tough area. This is what blocked me. It was too much of a jump. Also, the internet references and downloads are no longer active. It never worked for me back in 1999/2000 anyway. The company no longer makes German language products and has changed its address. If you just want a good cheap introductory (with a nice book on grammar), then go ahead and buy this. If you want an up to date program with support and a community, buy a new one. I still use this application for reading and listening.

I also used this product while I was learning German in high school. I've used other products and LiveMocha, but I really like this interactive application so I can hear and read the words. I've found it useful over the years and I think it's great if you want to learn some German for fun.
