Customer Reviews

Very happy

I am an advanced beginner, and I thhink this book is very good. I learned a lot, and I highly recommend this book to intermediate & + learners.

Good supplement to German class

I'm not sure how well you can learn to speak German from JUST this set, but it's great for listening in the car and reviewing language points for 1/2 hour a day or so. I used this in conjunction with taking classes, and I think it's a pretty decent learning tool.

Very Helpful

I got to know this sieres of books because of a friend of mine who bought the book for teach yourself russian. Being a native speaker of russian, I was surprised by how quickly my friend learned to speak, my only complaint being that the recording taught the students to speak too slowly for a native ear. I have studied German for 2 years at the university, and bought this book at the beginning of the summer to get ready for another year of advanced german, and I found the book and the recording very good. I found myself thinking more in German and being able to say things in a more sophisticated way than before. Unlike what I found in russian, the improve your german recordings spoke at converstion speed, and I soon became even more confident with listening and taking complete dictation on what was being said. Ein sehr gutes Buch!
