5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product - as are all teach yourself conversation kits, November 16, 2008

By	J. Magic - See all my reviews

Teach yourself conversation CD's are fantastic. This is the second set of them I have gotten, the first being for chinese, and both have worked very well for me at learning their respective languages. Excellent quality, I have tried a lot of stuff out and I find these tapes to be some of the most effective things for beginners.
