Teach Yourself French Extra! (Teach Yourself)

Rating:
Summary: Good but not enough
Review: This book intends to develop in what one already knows of the language. It point out some phrases in specific items and explain how to use in similar situations. It relates the daily life of a young couple who runs a regional restaurant. They are interviewed by a television journalist. The dialogues are pretty understables and they are recorded to a normal speed. However I think, the explanation in english must be confined to the book alone and not use so much time for that in the cassettes. I supposed that two hours of recording would have had much more listening skills but actually more of that is an english speaker trying to guide you through the french language. Nevertheless I consider this book as fairly good from which definitely you can cath many useful phrases.
