4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but needs more... Nov 23 2003

This package, or rather the coursebook, needs further instruction for grammar so you can make up your own sentences completely. There is a little chapter at the end on grammar but its not quite enough. However, this almost-perfect set is well worth the money. Enjoy...

3.0 out of 5 stars Great course, but I just get too annoyed sometimes... Jun 3 2009
By H. Jarvelainen - Published on Amazon.com
I think Living Language courses at just great - I am a big consumer of audio-language-courses and in my opinion, LL beats e.g. Pimsleur courses.

But what really annoys me is the female voice that gives absolutely too long introductions to each and every subject. Maybe American listeners are used to something like that, but for us Europeans her overexcited and naive voice is just bit too much sometimes...

And she seems to be speaking in all LL courses! Sigh...
2.0 out of 5 stars Complete in substance, not in format Dec 17 2007
By Erwacht - Published on Amazon.com
This little box does indeed contain every datum necessary to speak japanese well. However, all the audio material is placed on two audio cassettes without any repetition. That's the only way to put this much material on two cassettes. I recommend digitizing the tapes, breaking the recordings up into the forty individual lessons, and practicing them repetitively one by one. In that form, there is a lot to be gained from this set. I wish the included dictionary were more literal in its sense of word translation. The great thing about this set is that it is complete at so small a price.

If price is not an issue, I suggest Pimsleur for learning competence in a language, but I'm glad I bought this set, just to begin with.
