Critic reviews

“The audio-only lessons build upon one another, using a native speaker to help you learn useful words and actually construct sentences from the get-go.” —Minneapolis Star-Tribune

“Unlike other audio language programs, this series encourages students to create their own sentences, making it more fun and conversational than other more expensive programs.” —The Cleveland Plain Dealer

“Focuses on real-world conversation...Great value.” —Men's Health magazine

Semi Effective

I've been studying Russian for 5 years using primarily audio books. This book suffers from the same malady as all the others I have used to date - it does not explain the grammar behind the language at all. Words change between sentences and there is no explanation. This would be OK if there was sufficient repetition using the same words, but there is not. The book will build vocabulary a bit and provide some catch phrases, but you will not know Russian.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
