 A great way for the whole family to learn a new language May 11, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My oldest daughter is taking Spanish (latin American) in school and was having a tough time with the way the teacher presents the material. I initially bought Rosetta Stone for her but now the whole family is getting into it. The kids treat it like a game; who can get the best scores, and my wife and I can now actually understand what they say when they practice. I highly recommend this product for the whole family.
 A quick way to learn May 2, 2008
I was amazed at how quickly I picked the language up, the thing is it doesnt tell you what you are saying it just shows you. That's why I gave it 4 stars.
Very effective product April 25, 2008

Excellent product and very effective. My first reaction was it was too redundant and the vocabulary was far too limited. Then I realized this was intentional and part of the program. They use a limited vocabulary (nouns) to walk you through reading, writing, and speaking different contexts and to learn how to conjugate the verbs. The adding vocabulary becomes quite easy. It is absolutely full immersion so that you are thinking and responding in Spanish without translating back and forth. I learned twice as much in half the time than I have with any other system I've used.

 beware of 1GHZ speed requirement March 27, 2008
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
Although this requirement is not listed on the box, your computer needs to have at least 1 GHZ speed in order for the oral components to work properly. Otherwise, you will have major glitzes in these lessons and will finally, in frustration, skip them altogether. And, since I did not check this out until after the 30-day period with Amazon, I contacted Rosetta Stone directly to ask for a refund as they are the ones who left this critical requirement off the front of the box. Rosetta Stone refused to give me a refund, but simply suggested that I purchase a newer computer.
