Reviews for Speak! Basque

Product Rating
Very good!
I've never learned a language so quickly. The ease of use that the program offers the student is quite impressive. In my case, after 11 days, I'm able to formulate sentences in Basque and as incredible as it sounds, relatively fluently. (OK, it's true I spent a couple of hours per day with TeachMe!, but even if a person were to spend a couple of minutes each day with the software, they would see good results)

Impressive
The completely redesigned user interface brings a learning process which is intended only to individuals. Comparison, the microphone is more significant. With a wait of two years, it is now the most powerful software to learn Basque in the face of an offer very basic, or even non-existent among linguists recognized publishers.
