TELL ME MORE Spanish Performance (10 levels from Complete Beginner to Expert)

from: Auralog

December 06, 2007
While expensive, this is by far the best Spanish learning program I have used. As a beginner this program gets you going right away with immersion in the language. Through familiarity new words are learned and the creative lessons build upon each other. I do not have time to take a Spanish course and this program lets me learn at my own pace when I want to. I use this on my Vista computer and it works fine. Highly recommended!

TeLL me More French Premium - Complete Beginner, Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced

from: Auralog

June 02, 2006
I've been struggling with this software off and on for the last couple of years and finally realized it's not worth either the time or money I've spent on it. It has a variety of flaws, but here are the major ones:

1) The User Interface is Terrible: The software is Flash-based and the user inteface is totally non-intuitive, violating all of the basic user interface standards used by most Windows-based programs. Double-clicking on commands is not supported, and neither is the Enter key. Every selection requires at least two mouse clicks, making navigating the program a frustrating process.

2) Speech Recogition is Unrecognizable: This feature, which is one of the major selling points of the program, is a complete joke. ... Read More:

Tell me More English Premium seems to be the best product out there. I bought for friends of mine from Mexico and they were able to keep up conversations on simple topics after progressing to the Beginner level. The feedback I got was that they never got bored using this program due to all the exciting activities and lessons which kept them going.

TeLL me More French - Intelligent Solution - Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced

from: Auralog

July 02, 2004
It was a semester before I went on a study abroad to France when I first heard of this software; my French professor asked for volunteers to participate in a research of it. I joined immediately knowing that I only have few months to excel my skills before I go on a 6 month journey to France.I was amazed with this software from day one! It helped me a lot with pronunciation, vocabulary, and even confidence of speaking French; I guess talking out loud (to a machine) helps with adjusting yourself to speaking it overall. Now, I decided to buy it for myself, so I can not only practice what I have learned, but also work on becoming fluent, hopefully.

Talk To Me Italian (Beginner-Intermediate-Advanced)

from: Auralog

January 01, 2005
I purchased this about a week ago after reading reviews on several products, including Rosetta Stone, and am very pleased with the quality of the program. There are loads of activities for each level, including pronunciation practice, crossword puzzles, and the like so you can reinforce what you are learning. You can also make CD or MP3 copies of the audio portions so you can listen and practice on the go. The program uses a number of speakers, both male and female, so you get accustomed to a variety of voices, which seems like a practical idea. It even comes with a nifty headset/microphone for the speech recognition function.

However, there are a couple of negatives, which is why I didn't give 5 stars. Although the software was simple to install, ... Read More:

TeLL me More Italian Premium - Complete Beginner, Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced

from: Auralog

June 02, 2006
I have to admit I was disappointed in this product. I have had some training in Italian and while Tell Me More served well as a kind of refresher, causing me to think about what I had already learned in the past, I didn't find it at all helpful in moving forward - I had to pick up the text books again for that to happen. It just seemed to be all over the place, with no real focus on the language and it's working parts - just a bunch of games and exercises. Maybe it works better for other people. Expensive experiment for me.
