3.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad value, but a bit tedious, October 14, 2003

This review is from: Romanian Language/30 with Book (Romany Edition) (Audio Cassette)

This set is a decent value. For your money, you get a fairly broad range of phrases and vocabulary. However, the organization of information assumes that you can keep interest listening to a bunch of discrete phrases repeated one after the other with no conversations or anything remotely natural. If you can, in fact, maintain interest while listening to these tapes repeatedly, then you'll do well with this set. If, on the other hand, you need something more dynamic, you might do well to look elsewhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars Practical & Easy!, October 12, 2000

This book with cassettes gives a very practical base for the beginner with the Romanian language. It is in a helpful conversational style, and of great use for travelers. Having both the audio as well as the visual helps to clarify and solidify what you learn. Excellent course.

This review is from: Romanian Language/30 with Book (Romany Edition) (Audio Cassette)

This series didn't go very deep into grammar, and it definately won't make you fluent, but that's not it's intent. It's geared more toward helping you get around while traveling, which it did. I learned enough to get around reasonably well on my own in east Europe, and the phrase book was convenient to carry around for reference. Not only that, when I did start seriously studying Romanian, I already had a foundation to build on. I'd recommend it to anyone.
