Title: There Are Much Better Ways of Learning French
Review: I purchased this product looking for a cheaper alternative to the more expensive language software. As a student with absolutely no previous educaion in French, this program did not help me at all. It starts out right into full dialogue-with no introduction to vocabulary, grammar, or even the alphabet or basic pronunciation. There many activities that are difficult to do, one of the first is when you must listen to several words and phrases in rapid French and type them in-with no introduction to spelling or listening to the most basic phrases. I found myself doing the activities just to get through them, and I REMEMBERED VERY VERY LITTLE. What kept this from a 1 star were the grammar explanation features, and conjugation tool. Immersion may be the best way, but try a much cheaper or even free way first (I recommend french.about.com!) , but don't waste money on an almost useless product.
