This Spanish Language DVD Gets It Right,
By ALC (MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spanish 101 (The Travel Linguist) (DVD)
I've tried the community education classes and the audio tapes in my car but this dvd taught me best. Its production is very simple with no nonsense to get in your way of understanding and speaking the top phrases. It was perfect for my mexico vacation. I enjoyed hearing, seeing and reading all in one tool. A must for those who don't know any spanish and are planning on traveling abroad or just down the street to your mexican market.

Nice Introduction to Spoken Spanish,
By Anna Garcia "Anna Garcia" (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spanish 101 (The Travel Linguist) (DVD)
I am a Spanish teacher. There is no book, cassette tape, software program, or DVD that will teach you to speak another language. You must speak it regularly with someone. But if you do not have that chance then this DVD will introduce you to native Spanish accents and you will learn a few words while you listen. You probably should also get a book or something else if you want to become fluent. (Note: I had a problem with my DVD and the company answered my question by e-mail within 5 minutes and sent me a replacement DVD by overnight delivery free of charge. Great customer service!)

Appalling,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Spanish 101 (The Travel Linguist) (DVD)
Everything about this DVD is cheap, except its price, which is outrageous. It must have cost a handful of beans and a jug of tequila to produce. The sound is poor and the graphics minimal. The 'Word and Phrase Guide' insert is a derisory single sheet with FOLD HERE inscribed down the center. Who in their right mind would take that with them instead of a proper phrase book?There are supposed to be 6 categories. My DVD had 5. 'Travel' must have traveled. After 'Shopping', it drops; no return to menu or anything -- the DVD simply stops. Two native speakers, a man and a woman, sit and say the words and phrases to camera. Both have an 'I should really be playing in daytime soaps' attitude. The woman in particular has a grim, unsmiling presence, which would suit a dominatrix more than a language coach. The so-called 'Three Levels of Learning' all have the same words, spoken by the same two soulless speakers. Latin American Spanish language DVDs are surprisingly scarce, so I'm afraid I can't recommend a better one. But neither can I imagine a worse.
