Customer Reviews

Good complement to the text book

For all the supplementary materials to vis-a-vis, I like the workbook the best. It provides good exercises to allow us to really grasp the concepts.

Great For Hands on People

It seems that the other reviews aren't really for the book at all, but for personal short-sightedness or bad service. I'd like to offer a review that actually talks about the BOOK. This workbook is great, especially for people who are hands-on. My French class uses online homework, which is fine, but there's something more helpful about having to write it down yourself. The workbook offers answers in the back and the exercises are challenging, yet doable. I also feel that the workbook's exercises help you apply the French that you're learning really well. When my teacher offered worksheets from this workbook to do in class, I found that what we were studying stuck better in my mind. I would recommend this workbook, and it's a shame they don't offer it as an option to buy at my university bookstore. (I'm actually using the workbook as a brush-up from a summer of no French while heading into a second year of classes.)
