5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT COURSE FOR THE CAR!, July 19 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat (Audio CD)

I live near a big metropolitan area and I do lot of driving (and sometimes trains) every day. I bought Conversational Spanish 8 CDs with the expectation of learning some Spanish during my two hour daily commute. I couldn't have underestimated this course more. I learned A LOT of Spanish during my commutes and what I have learned I owe to this great course. The thing that makes it so effective for me is that all the Spanish comes with English definitions so I don't have to stop the CD to go look up meanings.
Add to this the fact that Luis (the native speaker) always repeats enough so that if you space out for a second, get honked at, or whatever, you still catch the lesson.
My impressions of this course are that it is simple, easy to understand, and effective at getting you 'conversational' in Spanish fast.
I find it nearly unbelievable that I am able to speak as much basic Spanish as I now do in such a short period of time.
By the way .... The book is great too. (When you're not driving of course).

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Course. It's a Bargain!, Jun 9 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat (Audio CD)

What a great course. I didn't even know that such a fast way to learn Spanish existed until a friend recommended I try
Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat.
My version is multi-track and I love the method which is very user-friendly and unintimidating. In short, it's easy.
I became 'conversational' in Spanish within about 2 weeks of using this course daily for about an hour and a half a day. This means that I can now communicate basic likes and dislikes, express basic intentions and needs effectively using basic practical survival Spanish, ask basic questions and give basic answers, all while using my own original sentences. I have also learned quite a bit about how the language is written from the text which is included.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Course!! Great Quality!! Great Value!!, Jun 6 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat (Audio CD)

One week with Language Dynamics' Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat has gotten me results that totally eclipse my earlier experiences with other Spanish courses.
It's easy to understand why Language Dynamics courses have consistently been rated as among the best and highest quality foreign language courses on the market today.
Groups such as Men's Health Magazine rated Language Dynamics courses as among the best alongside Pimsleur and Rosetta Stone and received the additional distinction of being a 'Great Value'.
What makes Conversational Spanish so great is the easy to learn method, the relevant high frequency vocabulary, the magnificent voices (particularly that of Luis, the native Spanish speaker), the high quality production of the course,
the completeness of the material (no gimmicks - here you learn to speak real authentic Spanish fast), and as an added bonus you receive complete written material as well
(something many of the competition don't offer).
All of this for only $69.00? No wonder it has been rated as a great value.
