Useful for me

I find these "ear worm" recordings useful. Although I continue to listen to the recordings over and over, as a beginner, I appreciate hearing the language spoken in these relaxed common scenarios. I am attempting to learn many languages at once, which I find difficult, but can listen to these as I drive or clean house and it keeps the language fresh in my mind.

Practical and Quick French Learning

This is a great choice if you're trying to pick up "survival french" for a quick trip to a french speaking country. It is all together practical (starting with, how to say I'd like a coffee) and I have found it very useful. (After trying a few other french audio books!) The beats make it easy to listen to and also get the phrases 'stuck in your head' which is a very good think when trying to learn a language! Highly recommend it.

A pleasant kickstart and review

I recently tried Rapid German: Volume 1 and was so pleased I immediately picked up Rapid French: Volume 1 and Rapid Spanish: Volume 1. I'm starting to deal with many new countries in my job, and this series promises to make coping with the language transitions much more pleasant.

This program covers your basic "Tourist French" - no serious grammer or massive vocabulary lists. What's unique about the program is that the lessons are set to background music and feature speakers with very pleasant voices. Even though you are still basically listening and repeating simple phrases, the music and the pace really relieve the tedium.

I've been working on my French for a few years, and often need (and dread) a quick refresher. This program helped my brain switch back into french mode in a little over an hour. Some people may not like the music or the format, so I recommend that you listen to the audio preview before you buy to see if this is the program you're looking for.

Cannot get enough!

Excellent approach to learning a foreign language. Since taking health class in high school and using the same learning technique, I have been waiting to apply that to a language learning program. And guess what? This is the one!

Where's Vol 2?

Since I'm already fluent in English and Spanish, I was excited at a great chance to learn French! I like the format -- small chunks and a "textbook" that helps if you're both a visual and an auditory learner! Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a way to order Vol 2. What gives?

Wonderful Refresher!

This is a superb French language refresher, especially after 45 years after my last French class in High School.
I only wish I had a PDF to go with it too, but it's 5-star in any event.
