ESL Instant Immersion English 2 CD-ROM Set Jewel Case

4 stars (A fun way to immerse in English) - This CD set is quiet user friendly for foreigners who already know some English, but need to hear the native accent more and to get some interactive simulation. I bought this for a friend in China who worked for a American firm, and she love it. 2 stars (Disappointing) - After reading the other review, I can say I was pretty shocked when I got the product and reviewed it. The program is definitely not for people who are trying to learn English. Perhaps it is better suited for people who are trying to improve pronunication or learn appropriate phrases. Example: There is a module where the user is to identify parts of the car. The English voice-over says: "These are made of rubber and are filled with air". The user is to select the blue dot pointing to a tire. My cousin sat there not knowing what "rubber" or "air" meant, let alone know to select the picture of the tire. Another "real life" example has the user observe a conversation in a restaurant. The conversation goes back and forth without any visuals other than the static picture of the waiter and customer. They go back and forth with, "Hello, how are you?" "I am fine." "What can I get for you?" "I would like a glass of water with ice, please." Again, my cousin sat there looking at the screen, impressed with the voice-over but not learning anything about speaking English. Very disappointing. The graphics are quite [disappointing], too. 5 stars (ESL Instant Immersion English) - I am a college student who came from a different country to study english here in US. This program has been very helpfull to me, specially with my pronunciation and vocabulary. It is a fun way to learn. I hope that others who have simular problems like myself, with the English language, discover this program. I told many of my friends and family about it, and everyone who try love it. Thank you. ...

Rosetta Stone English Level 1 - 2 Personal Edition

5 stars (Rosetta Stone is Solid) - I bought this product for a person from Thailand to learn English better. It is simple to follow, uncomplicated, and effective. One can pace himself and review progress. It is outstanding in combination with the learner speaking the language orally and daily with someone else. It creates more confidence, as well. 5 stars (Rosetta sends you on the way) - I found the Rosetta Stone Method effective to get me on the way to learn the language I needed: Russian. It was the very key break-thru element in my attempts to learn it. I would never had have success without it. It distinguishes itself very favorably from any other computer-based language training, in that it really sends one on the way, and keeps one there thru the first, always troublesome steps. However be informed, that it is not self-sufficient. You need a grammar, a dictionary, a good understanding of language structures (i.e. the grammatics of your own or another indogerman language), and more material. I took a lot of text and audio (internet radio) from the internet. I used also other audio/textbook courses to get more volume and substance. Even Mickey Mouse and some pre-school children books in the target language have been helpful. This mix made it sufficient, with Rosetta as the key driving element. Rosetta Stone does not tell you about these, but the implicit assumption is that of accompanying a teached course. Like the NASA astronauts had, evidently. They were not on their own. ...

Instant Immersion English 5 CD-ROM set

1 stars (There's no way anyone would learn to speak English) - It's a waste of money, don't buy it. The phonetics tools are good, but there is no chance anyone would learn English with this 5-CDs version, and also is too basic for people who want to improve their English command. I've found better stuff for free in Internet. 1 stars ( Instant Immersion English (5 CD-ROM set) ) - 5 disks that are related in title only. Very difficult for non-english speaker to set up. Poor graphics. This is not for someone trying to learn English as a foriegn language. I'm here on Amazon to buy something different. ...

Rosetta Stone English Personal Edition Level 1

5 stars (The Best Program for English as a Second Language) - When my cousin and her family arrived from Venezuela to join our family business, I knew that the first thing we needed to do was to teach them English. I asked around and found that the Rosetta Stone was the best program that they used in all the schools here in Miami. We bought the Level One and were soon amazed to see how fast my cousin and her seven year old daughter began to learn English. We all have a lot of fun with this program and it has so many beautiful pictures. Now my cousin is working with us and she is speaking English to the customers. We bought the Level Two which has even more lessons than the Level One, and some of the pictures are little movies! I would recommend the Rosetta Stone program to anyone who wants to learn English very quickly. ...
