German: Level 1-3 (Learn in Your Car)

After listening to the first 2 cds, I had learned a lot of basic phrases and words but I still couldn't have a general conversation with a German colleague at work - unless it involved asking where the airport was, what time the next train leaves at, or where is the bank? etc etc.... which it didn't! The cds are very good but I think you also need to use a book that explains some of the rules a bit better.

I bought several AudioBooks to practice my German and I must admit I found all of them quite useful. What I appreciated most of "Learn in Your Car: German (Complete Language Course)" was however the variety of the conversational subjects covered in each CD and the different levels of complexity available in them. Given the number of CDs provided in this package (Nine 60-minute CDs) it is also possible to listen to them a huge amount of times without getting too bored. I really recommend Audio-CDs as an additional way of learning a foreign language and this specific product both to beginners and to those having already a working knowledge of German.

This is a very good introductory course which starts very simply and builds up over 9 discs to give you a good basic grasp of the language. After the first 2 discs you will have basic skills to make up sentences indeed after just two weeks of playing the discs in my car I was able to have a basic conversation with a German friend. It is easy to learn and pitched at the right pace for beginners I feel confident I will be able to use my new skills when I go to Germany shortly. I highly recommend this set indeed I was so impressed with it myself that I am thinking of trying another language from the same source.

I recently decided to learn German to help me in my business, I travel to Switzerland regularly. This course was the best I've tried to help me learn the language during my daily commute. The format is easy to follow, it leads up to more challenging information with each tape. The tapes must be listened to more than once though, to get the full benefit of the information being given (there is a lot to learn!). The workbooks are very good also, they give more information about verbforms and conjugation rules.
