Reviews for TeachMe! 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)

Easy to use
The software is easy to set up and use. The vocabulary and grammar lessons are straight forward and well put together. Regarding the pronunciation section, it’s not always easy to say the word at the proper time. I have not had much time to follow the lessons. Now that I am retired I would like to use the software regularly.

Surprising
Whether you use it in addition to another course or for starting out as a complete beginner or to reinforce your learning of the Basque language, the software is fun. Just like spending time with friends, it make you want to come back to it daily.
