Penton Overseas, 2005

Great to get you up and speaking
I have tried numerous language programs each with different approaches to learning. Each of these have their pros and cons. Speak in a week, if you can dedicate time everyday, does just that. It got me up and conversational quickly. I liked the format and the conversation focus. The first week was easily completed in a week and provided some necessary basics. Each subsequent week was a ...

Excellent! The car is the perfect place to learn a language...
I spend alot of time in the car and this is excellent. I can understand basic stuff already (after 20 hours). This teaches by hearing over and over and repeating over and over just like you learned to talk as a child. For me, this is exactly what I was looking for. 2 thumbs up!

Which Is Better? Behind the Wheel or Learn in Your Car Spanish?
Which Is Better? Behind the Wheel or Learn in Your Car Spanish?, April 17, 2007 Reviewer: John Cartier (New York, N.Y.) - See all my reviews I personally enjoy using Learn in Your Car Spanish. It is a good value for the money and the production is very good, the vocabulary is worthwhile and the speakers voices are decent. That said, I heartily recommend you first purchase Behind the Wheel ...

Penton Overseas, 2000

Great Book for Long-term Investors
This book makes me want to finish up any other project I'm currently working on so I can spend my free time finding good investments. Excellent book, not to mention it's recommended by Warren Buffett. I was disappointed, however, that there wasn't an Unabridged Audio CD version. And the reader of the abridged audio CD is rather boring, but overall I'm very glad I found this book.

Teaching With Love and Logic: Taking Control of the Classroom

Penton Overseas, 2003

Great approach to classroom discipline
This book was recommended to me by a colleague. "Teaching . . . " empowers you to make decisions that are best for you and your students. The recommendations by the authors show how being in a "thinking state" allows you to offer choices to help students make good decisions regarding their behavior. I have been frustrated and exhausted trying to devise consequences which are appropriate. This ...

Great product for a great price
Learn in Your Car Spanish Complete Language Course (Learn in Your Car) I've tried to learn Spanish with at least five other recording systems, but I could never understand what the speaker was saying. In Learn in Your Car Spanish, the speaker speaks slower and more clearly than in any other sytem I've seen. With a pretty good understanding of English grammar, you can figure out the structure ...

Jim Fay, Charles Fay

Penton Overseas, 2001

Wow, what a difference a little love and logic makes!
This book has changed our home life considerably. We have three children under 5yrs and our house can be crazy at times. I started using the methods discribed in this book, a little at a time, and what a difference it makes. My daughter, who is 3, is a pleasure to be around (not the case a few weeks ago). My oldest, who was very moody usually, has been quite happy lately. And last but not ...

Parenting Teens with Love and Logic - Updated and expaned edition
I was first given this book when I left my son with a theraputic Wilderness Program in Oregon in the US. I travelled with my son from the UK to SageWalk, a therapy centre for Teens who were finding it difficult to fit in with their families, and who had fallen into bad and destructive behavour cycles. Although this book is written in a very 'American' style and can be a little 'cheesy' for the ...

Penton Overseas, 2001

Interesting Approach, Wonder How it Will Work
This book was recommended to us by the instructor in charge of our Foster Parent Training class. We have yet to try the techniques, since said foster children have yet to materialize. I hope I can deliver the lines in this book without sarcasm or reprisal. Here's one: "You're welcome to join us for dinner once you're done mowing the lawn." I think Future Foster Child will just call his ...

Immersionplus Spanish Complete: The Final Step to Fluency! (Immersionplus(tm) Audio Series)

12 reviews
Inc Penton Overseas

Penton Overseas, 2002

Just one problem
Penton Overseas was on the right track when they devolped "Immersion plus" however, for some reason which escapes me, they decided not to go with all native speakers in the audio track; an error for which the student listener will likely suffer. One character in the dialogs named "Silvia" (who is obviously an English speaker) has some severe pronunciation issues typical of begining/intermediate ...

A must have for EVERY parent
This is a mini preview of a parenting method that is amazing. Love and Logic WORKS!! It does not matter the age of the child or behavior of the child...ADHD, to sweet angel. I have used this parenting method on my 10 month old and it works. My sister-in-law introduced me to Love & Logic before I was even a parent to start preparing. I read this book over and over again, along with the many ...

Learn in Your Car Italian Complete (Learn in Your Car)

Henry N. Raymond

Penton Overseas, 2006

My favorite
I really love this series. I've read the other reviews and agree with some aspects - there are a few places that it's a little difficult to understand the speaker so perhaps the recording equipment could be better. I have the Pimsleur Italian Conversational as well. But I almost exclusively listen to the Learn in the Car CDs. I just prefer it. I've used it for about a year now. I've also taken 2 ...

Penton Overseas, 2004

Very Helpful
This combination CD and phrasebook has been excellent in helping me with both my research for my third novel and for preparing to visit Morocco. Moroccan Arabic is not the same as the Arabic spoken in other countries and this product not only lets me put authenticity in my dialogue, it ALSO lets me communicate to shopkeepers and others while touring Morocco. I highly recommend it to anyone ...

Barton Biggs

Penton Overseas, 2006

Excellent book
Its a great book, I came on here to buy another copy for a friend who runs a well known hedge fund. Well organized? No, not really, but it doesn't matter. It really does capture the flavor of the world nicely. The quality of the writing is substantially better than expected - which is to say quite good.

A way to practice
The Learn in your car German is great when teamed up with a little mp3 player because it allows you to practice while doing other things that do not require your full attention such as mowing or just walking.

This is an affordable learning system and full of useful phrases. The lessons are ordered in a way that allows for combinations of phrases that translate into real learning. I suggest Level 3 as well.

review of multiple products
After owning these items for a few months, here is my brief review of each one for comparative purposes for those who are considering learning the language but are contemplating on which course to purchase. It should be noted that there is no one perfect method. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, hence no five-star ratings from me. I also recommend using a dictionary as a ...
