Customer Reviews

Useful Tool

I got my book just in time for my class and I saved alot of money. The book is very useful in learning about german culutre, but when it comes to grammar it's a bit confusing.But it is still a great place to experience some well known german literature and events.

kaleidoskop review

The book itself is a wonderful tool in learning German. I didn't receive the exercise book or cd.

Delightful

Having been a student of german for several years now, I have been able to study from several texts and I find this one the most pleasant. I appreciate the layout and the vibrant colors which help to make the book more fun. I wouldn't say either that the book is tough - however it is what it says it is - an intermediate text. Anyone with the appropriate background and a desire to learn more German could get through this book. I would recommend it - it is my favorite german text.

Decent

I have been studying German for three years now and this book is probably the best I have ever had. This is not to say that it is excellent though. The book's layout is somewhat confusing and the non-Grammer sections could be a lot more clear. The Author's use of vocabulary can also be intimidating at times for the beginner. Overall though, a decent textbook that could do with a revision or two.

Kaleidoskop - A good mix of topics

I am a student in my third year of German tutoring and this is my fourth text book. It is refreshingly different when compared to the other texts that I have used to date. It mixes in relatively current articles from magazines and utilizes videotape to help with listening exercises. We have not used the audio tapes at all. It has a good variety of topics and exercises that are supported by the grammar sections at the rear of the text. The grammar is not embedded in the chapters. Instead, it is in sequential sections at the end of the book which correspond to the chapter progression at the start of the book. I definitely prefer it over the Themen and Wie Geht's books.
