 Rating:  - My brain must have run out of anchorsPerhaps I just don't learn this way. The music did nothing for me, and I can't think of any phrases "anchored into my long term memory". Perhaps I don't play it enough. The CD is fine if you want to learn stock phrases like "I would like to order...", "Have you got..." "Is there...." but what do you do when someone responds in German. I want to learn German so I can ask, understand the answer and respond. It will help you "get by" but not to have a conversation - go for broke and get Michel Thomas instead. Rating:  - Not worth the money at all.I bought both rapid French and rapid German based on the great reviews they seemed to have received but I am really disappointed. I do not feel that they have enough information at all to give the user a good basis of either language. You will come away having learnt a few phrases e.g. how to order a cup of tea or a bottle of wine, but if someone is going to ask you something back in French or German you are going to have no idea what they are talking to you about. These are basically CD's of a few phrases, i'm sure the method is a good one, but the amount of information on each CD is really limited. They will not even really give you enough of the language for tourist needs. I feel that if you spent 3 hours looking up phrases in a language ...

This product really works and I'd recommend to anyone! The two presenters are easy to listen to and present the language in a structured and logical way making your introduction and first steps to learning German with EarWorms very quick and fun. Supported by some really quite good music I found myself talking to my girlfriend (who speaks German) in no time at all! Well worth a purchase, money well spent and amazon have it at a great price. Auf Wiedersehen! Rating: - Learn while doing other stuff...I enjoyed learning from the Rapid Chinese CD a few months back and so knew what to expect when this arrived. This is a very similar presentation, with the same 10 track titles: I would like...; To order; Have you ...?; To the airport; Numbers; days & times; Is there ...?; Directions; Where, when & what time?; Problems, problems!; and Do you speak English? In fact they have mostly the same phrases. Ordering a bottle of wine somehow seems more natural for German that it did for Chinese! The way it works is there is a native German-speaking woman and a native English-speaking man. The English comes first then the German. As the track titles above suggest the 10 lessons cover useful phrase book stuff, at the most basic level. ...

I also play it on my MP3 player whilst in the gym - the perfect combination - getting fit and learning at the same time. I have never learned well aurally, In one ear and out the other, but this seems to have stimulated a new learning style I never thought I would cope with, I think that it will in fact help in many other ways too. I have noticed a difference in my own job of training. I can remember peoples names so much better now. I definitely think it's triggered something in my brain. It is quite amazing that when the phrases come up in every day English, the German equivalent pops into my head at the same time - like 'Warum nicht' 'Why ... Read More: |
