Reviews for Speak! Russian

Product Rating
I liked them so much, I repaired my Dell
I have both Lithuanian and Russian. I found both courses well organised and easy to use. The presentation is excellent, the audio spoken with the visuals clear and authentic. With regards to teaching me the correct pronunciation of words and phrases - when I went on holidays to Russia and to Lithuania, I was able to speak to people and to understand what they said to me. Since I was staying at the home of Russian speaking friends, (they spoke no English), I felt quite at ease with them. I liked the courses so much I had my Dell repaired (at great expence) in order to carry on using my existing ROMs. (They don’t run on a Mac which I would much prefer). Before I purchase my next language course,(Spanish) I would like to know if you now produce courses written for Mac OS X? I would give a Mac OS X version a 5 star review.

I like Russia
A really good introduction to the Russian language, where you can learn the basics in a fun way. Through the built in repitition you’ll be surprised how much vocabulary you can learn, without any real effort. You don’t have to learn the Cyrillic letters to learn Russian (especially useful for beginners). The material in the course is quite relevant and can be used in real life situations right away. Thanks for a great product!

Effective Course
I bought a series of books with audio CD and CD-ROMs for language learning, to give to my friends for Christmas (English and Dutch) and they are happy with them. I also bought one for myself (Russian). My friend who received the Dutch course was very happy because it's not easy to find a course to learn Dutch through Italian. It will now be easier for her to communicate with her boyfriend. I must say that I find the courses very effective. Repeatedly listening to the cd you learn effortlessly and retain new words with the correct pronunciation!
