4.0 out of 5 stars Great Language Learning Tool, November 8, 2007
By James C. Rieth (Baltimore, MD) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: My Spanish Coach (Video Game)
I'm a college student taking Spanish as a requirement, and I picked this software up hoping that it could help me get through level 2 Spanish. After playing the game today, I'm certain it will be beneficial to my quest to graduate :)

The game first tests you on a range of Spanish vocabulary to see at about what level you are currently testing at, which was excellent since I have some basic Spanish behind me already - no starting from the beginning all over again.

Another great feature in my opinion is the fact that the game forces you to continually re-play the current level you are on, and you earn 'mastery points' as you go - this prevents you from thinking you are 'close enough' to getting it and moving ahead before you might be ready. If you haven't mastered the current level you will not be allowed to move to the next.

The mini-games are enjoyable and the overall presentation of this product is very sharp. The extras almost make it worth the price of the game alone - a searchable phrasebook complete with spoken pronunciations, a English-Spanish dictionary, etc.

I definitely recommend this product and look forward to continuing to use it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Fun Way to Learn Some Spanish, November 12, 2007
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: My Spanish Coach (Video Game)
I bought this for my wife and myself so we could learn a little Spanish. She has some Spanish background with a few high school level classes. I have none. But both of us really enjoy the game and are learning new things right from the start.

The first 5 minutes of playing the game asks you to choose what some words mean in Spanish. It starts off with easy ones like Gracias, Uno, etc and then gets harder. The better you do on these the higher level you start in your lessons. So the game can be helpful for anyone learning Spanish.

My wife and I have both played every night since we got it and enjoy it enough that we want to play every day. The lessons are easy enough each time, but have fun games to help you learn them. Plus it can help you learn to speak Spanish too by recording your voice and comparing it to a native speakers pronunciation. You can even compare inflection to make sure you get it right.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very impressed with this game, December 2, 2007
By Naz (New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: My Spanish Coach (Video Game)
I expected this game to mimic your typical book where it is all about repetition. Instead I found a very interactive and quite engrossing game based upon teaching you spanish. One fear I had was that as someone who knows a little about spanish I would have to sit through beginner stuff for hours before getting to the content that really suits me. The game handles this potential issue brilliantly by having you take a 50 question placement test. I got up to question 35 before missing twice in a row which automatically ends the test. For this performance I was moved straight to lesson 8. Amazingly there are around 1000 lessons. I played lesson 8 and immediately learned what I missed on the test and more importantly learned new words and the context in which they they are used in sentences. At the end of each lesson you take a timed multiple choice test where you accumulate Mastering points which enable you to unlock future areas. It really does give you a sense of accomplishment and also makes this really seem like a game.

For anyone looking to either learn a new language, or test their current knowledge, this series of games is awesome.

Apart from a few minor mistakes (accenting, spelling, etc) this game is pretty dead on. It's great to be able to start from a higher level, instead of having to bore yourself... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty useful game
The game is great for learning words, but lacks the articles which I don't understand why they would leave them out. It makes creating sentences a bit harder that way.
