Learn to Speak™ Spanish Testimonials

I am a language teacher, and this is my dream program

I cannot stop raving about this program. This is my dream program, and I am a language teacher, so I know what to look for: audio for virtually every word/phrase/conversation, progressive lessons, exercises, videos, etc., etc. It is logically arranged, and covers absolutely every basic topic imaginable. It has tons of features but will not be overwhelming for someone who takes the time to get used to them. You will certainly not be sorry if you purchase this and dedicate yourself to it. I started from scratch and now feel completely at ease with a home stay that I will be doing soon in Ecuador.

I went to Malaga Spain and was able to communicate

Learn to Speak Spanish is so far my favorite. Using this software, I went to Malaga, Spain, and was able to communicate.

I still need it to communicate in New York where I live. N. America is becoming an English/Spanish-speaking country and using this software in conjunction with others helps me to communicate daily in the U.S.A.

A well structured course

Learn to Speak Spanish offers a well structured course. I recommend it.

R. Cousins

AMAZING price for the value

Learn to Speak Spanish is a superb program. Learning on the computer is great, b/c one can replay a phrase or a word over and over and over (instead of a whole track, as on audio CD learning systems) by clicking with one’s mouse. AMAZING price for the value.

The best learning product I have ever bought

This is the best learning product I have ever bought. It comes with the most content (5 CDs & a printable study book) I have seen. I bought a Learn Spanish product by someone else and it stinks compared to this one! This one is an amazing value.

C. Johnson

A friend recommended this

I have a friend who speaks 7 languages fluently – he’s a professional Bible translator. He recommended this, saying he even has his family use the whole Learn to Speak series to learn new languages, instead of teaching them the basics himself.

Makes it a breeze to learn Spanish

The program makes you fly through the language and makes it a breeze to learn Spanish. It covers everything from basics to advanced materials. The voice recognition is GREAT! It really gives you a good idea of what you sound like and how it compares to native speakers. For the price it’s a good buy, you won’t be disappointed!!

Your pronunciation is rated in relation to native speakers

I do like the setup of the software – you can setup multiple users on the software if more than one family member wants to use it and it keeps up with your progress. There’s a pretest to determine where you should start. The speak recognition technology has worked fine so far. Your pronunciation is rated in relation to native speakers. You can learn the language for Everyday, Business or Travel use.

Have fun learning for a change

I’ve always had a problem learning Spanish from a book. For one, I had no clue as to how most of the words were pronounced. With this item, you see the word and hear it spoken. The coolest part is you can record yourself saying the words, and it will play it back for you and grade you on how native you sounded. Plus you can have interactive conversations! Also includes talking dictionary, cultural movies, internet lessons, progress checks, and much more. It’s worth the money, and better than any other teacher who’s tried to force feed this language down my throat. Move at your own pace and have fun learning for a change.

R. Behr

I am native Spanish Speaker, and I recommend the software. I bought it for my husband, and I really like it too.

La Pana

This software is great

This software is great… Gram Ar Crow (the funny bird who is the grammar teacher) is funny and friendly. I want to get all the “Learn to Speak” Software. They’re great. My advice is BUY IT!!!

Learn to Speak™ French Testimonials

I am coming close to being very fluent 'en francais'

I have had this software for approximately 4 months now and I am coming close to being very fluent 'en francais'. It offers 3 complete courses, boasting vocabulary builders, lessons in grammar and verb conjugation, games to reinforce what you have learned, and you can also have conversations with virtual characters so that you can practice speaking. I am engaged to a Frenchman and I just keep surprising him with how much I have learned. I go to France frequently, and this has made a huge difference in my linguistic skills. Future Francophiles (persons who love French language and culture), Good luck.

C. Estelle

Gets into conversations fast

My wife and I are trying to learn French fast and this program is making that happen. It is done in an interesting and fun way that keeps your attention. It does not waste a lot of time boring you with details, but gets into conversations fast.

P. Prelle

Well worth the money

The best way to learn a language is to use it. This cd system teaches you phases then has you use them as it guides you, and records how close you get to sounding like a native. It also shows you how to conjugate, but you don’t mind because it’s things you’ve already said. It also let’s you work at your own pace. Well worth the money. Au revoir!

Andre La Plume

Gives you a lot of grammar aids

I had never found a good learning software for languages but this is great. It is very friendly, very exciting, not boring, takes you through different drills while you are learning and gives you a lot of grammar aids. I am fascinated with this piece of art. I truly recommend this. I am getting the Spanish for my hubby and I will continue with French, all by the same company.

Great software product

This software is awesome for learning French! First you start off learning the alphabet and learning vowels, etc., then you move onto Basic Phrases, Beginner I, Beginner II, and then Intermediate (Comprehensive Courses). A reference book comes with the package along with 5 CDs… Great software product overall.

I love it!!

I love this. After the pretests it started me off with things that beginners should know when speaking. It gets you speaking right away. The workbook is good, too. They have an audio cd that I’ve been listening to while cleaning. So you get to learn to listen read and talk first. And then you learn how to write. I’ve been messing with this thing everyday. I love it!!!

Learn to Speak™ German Testimonials

The price is an unbelievable value

I used the “Learn to Speak” program for learning Spanish and it was excellent and my Spanish really improved. Now, I’m using the same program for learning German. It is also excellent and I highly recommend it. I have purchased many programs from different companies for both Spanish and German. In my opinion, the “Learn to Speak” series is superior to all of them, and the price is an unbelievable value.

T. Greenberg

The best language software

I’ve tried a few other programs, but all lacked in some major area. One didn’t have any translations at all but had great reading and writing, another had no organized method at all (i.e. lesson 1, lesson 2, etc). I figured I’d give another software a try and looked around and this one seemed to look the best (interface, method, content, etc) and it sure is.

Better than other products costing more

I have tried several other products, including CDs, cassettes, and print. This is definitely better than other products costing more. My daughter is nine years old and likes to use this product as a sort of a game to see how many words she can accurately pronounce.

D. Smith

Great product for beginners

I have only recently started to learn German. I used this CD at a friend’s place and found it to be very helpful and intuitive. It really is a great product for beginners, where you can skip all those boring grammar lessons and get straight to using the language.

Zero in on your particular needs

[Learn to Speak] allows you to zero in on your particular needs and not have to wade through countless lessons that may not be applicable to you. In my case, I was using the software in order to travel in German-speaking countries. The emphasis on spoken language is good, especially for a difficult language like German to pronounce. It helped me a lot to hear and repeat German words until I could understand and say them.

Stan L. Riggin

Well tailored to teach spoken German

I have been very pleased with this purchase. It is well tailored to teach spoken German. The software starts with basic words and fairly quickly introduces conversation sequences from relevant situations. Voice recording allows the user to hear his own voice and compare it with that of a native speaker.

A. Shavit

Can't believe how much fun it is

I bought this software on the strength of the other reviews. I had tried 3 other German software products and all of them were not very good. I just can’t believe how superior this product is to the others, and how much fun it is.

B. Schoendorf

The best language software for the money

The bottom line, for the money you are paying, I think that Learn to Speak German is probably the best for home learning on your personal computer. Get motivated, sit down with a cup of coffee, and go for it.

Preparing for a trip to Austria

I bought this product to supplement private lessons to prepare for a trip to Austria. I had ten weeks to get ready. For the price, the product is pretty good. The lessons so far have proven helpful in reinforcing and expanding my weekly face-to-face lessons.

It has also allowed me to venture into specific areas I know I will need, such as travel dialogs: Where is the train station? Can I make a reservation? How much is a taxi to the hotel?

P. Canniff

Great products at a great price

This is a great product and at a great price too. Comes with 5 CD’s and a printable reference booklet…. This is worth your money! You won’t regret it.

Well put together package

I was skeptical at first, Learn to Speak German on a computer? But after a few short lessons, I am not only learning it, but remembering and putting my own sentences together. This package is put together well, giving you easy to follow lessons, vocabulary exercises and end-of-lesson tests. I recommend this program.

Learn to Speak™ English Testimonials

Use it with my ESL students

I use this program with my ESL students because the program has a speech recognition meter that measures how close you are to a native speakers voice… Besides this very great tool there are stimulated conversations that you interact in. A talking dictionary, progress tracking, grammar exercises and there is a PDA dictionary.

A. E. Han

Multiple users available for families

I do like the setup of the software – you can setup multiple users on the software if more than one family member wants to use it and it keeps up with your progress. There’s a pretest to determine where you should start. The speak recognition technology has worked fine so far. Your pronunciation is rated in relation to native speakers. You can learn the language for Everyday, Business or Travel use.

Excellent tool to improve your language skills

This is a very professional tool to improve your language skills. I love to use the voice recognition feature and the accent assessment. It really helps you to speak clearly. Lessons are very well designed and it covers everything: pronunciation, grammar, reading, listening, vocabulary etc. It’s an excellent tool 🙂

Fernando Casas Cruz

I truly recommend this

I had never found a good learning software for languages but this is great. It is very friendly, very exciting, not boring, takes you through different drills while you are learning and gives you a lot of grammar aids. I truly recommend this.

M. Neff

Emphasizes pronunciation

This software emphasizes pronunciation and will also teach you all basics, including grammar, conversation, and reading. What this program is really good about is speaking practice; examples are abundant, speech recognition is good in comparison to other products, you can have conversations with your computer in various ways, and it’s fun.
