5.0 out of 5 stars What a wonderful way to learn French!, November 20, 2002

By	Danny Day (Westlake, OH United States) - See all my reviews

I have the Learn to speak French CD set from "The Learning Company" and it is absolutely WONDERFUL! I've been to France many times since "learning" French with this program and it really works! After each lesson you talk into your microphone what you have learned and it rates your French as a tourist or a native. If you don't do well you can do it again and again until you get it right. I've tried many programs and lessons and this is absolutely the BEST! You have to get it and you will be saying Merci to The Learning Company for teaching you such a wonderful language. It's so easy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great software!, February 5, 2003

By A Customer

I bought this software to brush up on french before a trip to Paris. I thought it was excellent and the interactive nature of the program made it really fun. It's also convenient that it comes with situation specific lessons and drills (business,travel,shopping) so that you can tailor your learning to your needs if you don't have time to do the entire program. Highly recommend it to others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent product and a great way to learn French!, August 13, 2003

By	J. Teel (Tucson, AZ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am very impressed with this product. For starters you get a lot of stuff for [the price] and this software has to be one of the best deals I've seen on any software. In addition to the 4 CDROMs you get a DVD, an audio CD, a ... Fodors Guide book, a very handy reference book, and a high-quality microphone. That's alot for [the price]. The software was very easy to install and everything went smoothly with the installation on Windows 2000. The software itself is excellent and very easy to use. Many many excellents lessons to work through. Short of hiring a private tutor I think this is probably one of the best ways to learn a foreign language. The simulated conversions are very impressive. I highly recommend this product!
