Title: NOT Recommended for Quick Conversational Learning
Review: With an upcoming trip to Spain, and no knowledge whatsoever of Spanish, I ordered this set hoping to learn enough Spanish to get by.The first sixty or so lessons were isolated repetitions of lists of words with no contextual phrasing or conversation whatsoever. My knowledge of French and Italian helped with those Spanish words that have similarities in those other languages, but otherwise, by the time I got to subsequent lessons, it was almost impossible for me to recall the bulk of the Spanish words dictated in the earlier lessons.My wife, who took Spanish in school, found the lessons to be good refreshers, but also agreed that they did not serve well as a pre-vacation immersion course.Anyone wishing to quickly learn conversational Spanish should ignore the glowing reviews below and consider obtaining a course that uses the immersion method (i.e. where you listen to everything IN CONTEXT rather than in isolated dictate-pause-dictate list fashion).
