Great Customer Service!!!
I am a Spanish teacher and bought this company's Spanish DVD. I had a problem with it and e-mailed them. They sent me a replacement DVD overnight free of charge and also gave me an Italian DVD free. Then they e-mailed me the very next day to make sure I had received everything. They e-mailed again two days later to ask if the DVD I received had worked (it did). This DVD is very simple and ...

Excellent course supplement or travel prep aid
I'm taking a beginning conversational Chinese class at a community college. This DVD covers much of the same material, and is an excellent supplement to the course. While studying during the week between classes, it's easy to forget the precise pronumciation of new words -- you can end up practicing the wrong pronunciation all week! As with any foreign language, it would be quite challenging ...

Recommended for Beginning German Speakers
I teach high school German (but I'm American) so I bought this for my class to listen to real authentic German accents. I'm pretty sure these are southern accents from the Munich area. If you know Germany, you'll know the southern accent is much different from the northern accent. But if you are just starting to speak German, you won't be able to tell the difference. This DVD was a nice ...

Bonjour!!!!
My family is hosting a French exchange student for the summer and she was impressed with the French words and phrases we already knew when she arrived. This is a very simple DVD that teaches basic French words and phrases. It won't teach you complicated grammar but if you're just starting to learn French this will get you started.

Got me through a week in Mexico City
I had to go to Mexico City for a week. I bought this for the plane ride over. The DVD teaches you 101 words and that's it. No grammar. No sentence structure. Just words and phrases. I enjoyed it but can see why some people might want more. Still for less than $20 I thought it was a good deal. It also came with a phrasebook that I lost. The company was nice enough to send me a replacement ...

Greek 101
This is an excellent introduction to basic Greek for the busy traveler. I liked seeing and hearing the words both in print and spoken by Greek speakers. I also have the Pimsleur DVD set, which is better for really using the language, but takes a lot longer and lacks visuals. Unfortunately my "Greek 101" DVD is defective. It stops after the word "Today" in level 1 and breaks up; losng the audio ...

Charlie Rose, Inc., 2006
Five Stars, only to offset Shalom's silliness
It's true; the interview contained on this DVD ain't the best, but only because Charlie Rose is in over his head with our man Noam. However, it is worth a laugh, if you find the idea of watching ol' Charlie grasping at straws (oh, the way his face just plummets when Chomsky corrects him on the subject of exactly how many political parties are operating in American government!) amusing, then this ...

Excellent for Travelers or Learning Basic Conversational Skills
Excellent for travelers or for learning the basics of conversational Brazilian Portuguese when you do not have access to a formal class. I homeschool my daughter and am using the DVD to introduce my 8-year old to Portuguese. I plan to buy the other languages in the series as well. Although there are some excellent software programs for learning or teaching Portuguese, this is the only DVD or ...

Very disappointed
I've already taken Hebrew in college, so I wasn't expecting anything advanced, but this learning DVD was horrible. I was expecting basic Hebrew, but was hoping for some skits and dialogue in the DVD to reinforce vocabulary. There are none. It basically consists of showing an English phrase, pronouncing the Hebrew equivalent, showing a Hebrew text with English transliteration, then having it ...

Very disappointing!
I had high hopes for this DVD. I thought that the format would be easy for me to watch as I did other things. I bought the one for mandarin and unfortunately none of the script marks which tone to use in pronouncing the words. And in trying to speak Mandarin using the right tone is PART OF the word. It is impossible to learn to say the word without saying the right tone. Another thing that I ...

A big disappontment
I was not happy with this DVD at all. It was too short and a waste of my money. I don't recommend it to anyone. I found Cyberitalian online and am actually learning quite a bit of Italian.

very helpful
This DVD has phrases which are broken into five sections: greetings, directions, dining, shopping, and safety. I thought people would be shown using the phrases in various situations, but it was recorded in a studio. After they say a phrase, the written English and Japanese appears (one in kanji/hiragana/katakana and the other in romanji). As a beginner, I'm finding this DVD very helpful ...
