This is great for just a quick introduction to the language and if you want to pick up common phrases/sentences. The draw backs are it's not very in depth and the pace is slow (but for good reason; it's to give the listener plenty of time to repeat) and the speakers are very monotone, which can make it seem boring and like it's taking even longer. A way to cope with it is that I sometimes read through the section of the book I'm going to listen to and then listen to the CD later while I do other things, such as exercise, cook, housework, etc. Anyone who is looking for an in depth book that breaks it down piece by peice and explains the nitty gritty of it, this is not for you. However, if you're looking for something quick that will help you pick up common phrases quickly, this is a good choice.

This is an ok product, but its not really for beginners. There is no pronouciation guide, and its just listen and repeat, but sometimes you cant understand the person speaking. It would be good for a brush up course, but theres too much info you dont need for simple conversation.

This seems to be aimed more at someone working there or going for business than for a traveler on vacation. I would prefer a product that just focused on what I need as a tourist. I don't need to ask someone "where is the meeting?" for exampled. It is also not an easy language with the single or plural and the feminine or masculine so I will write down certain ones I want to learn, expand on that, and then listen to the CDs in my car to pick up the pronunciations etc. better.

I have recently come back in contact with a long time friend from Germany and he speaks fluent German but, I lost the ability once i moved away back to the USA. This guide is allowing me to pick back up on phrases and have conversations with him. My goal is to become fluent just as he is by 2014 if not sooner.!

Doesn't fit with my German class at all. Some of the words are different and it doesn't give you any sentence structures. Unless you thin you can learn German off vocabulary alone its best as a supplement to a class.

I like this product, you actually get to see the words and then hear them. I So hope this dummy can learn this to hold up my end of a conversation. Learning to write the words are helpful when you have people write to you. The CD arrived in very good condition.

Not as easy as I thought it would be. I wanted to learn as I drive a lot, but I found it necessary to follow along in the book in order to understand the German translation and I couldn't do that while driving..

So far it is easy to follow and I feel I am actually learning some German. Every phrase is repeated twice and they give you plenty of time to recite the words back.
