Summary: Great Course!! Great Quality!! Great Value!!
Review: One week with Language Dynamics' Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat has gotten me results that totally eclipse my earlier experiences with other Spanish courses.
It's easy to understand why Language Dynamics courses have consistently been rated as among the best and highest quality foreign language courses on the market today.
Groups such as Men's Health Magazine rated Language Dynamics courses as among the best alongside Pimsleur and Rosetta Stone and received the additional distinction of being a 'Great Value'.
What makes Conversational Spanish so great is the easy to learn method, the relevant high frequency vocabulary, the magnificent voices (particularly that of Luis, the native Spanish speaker), the high quality production of the course,
the completeness of the material (no gimmicks - here you learn to speak real authentic Spanish fast), and as an added bonus you receive complete written material as well
(something many of the competition don't offer).
All of this for only $69.00? No wonder it has been rated as a great value.

Summary: It's a joke
Review: The CD's do look like they are made from someones home. When I opened it, some of the CD's fell out. They are not securely placed in there, making it easy for the CD's to get scratched.

More importantly is the learning process. It turned me off. The english speaking guy is so monotone and drab. He asks the spanish speaker to say this, now say that, lets learn this word now. He doesn't tie anything together, I find it hard to learn and pick up on it. THE PIMSLEUR method is better. I learn so much quicker, and immediately from the beginning of the CD.

It was definately a waste of my money.

Summary: This CD set needs work...
Review: The CDs in this package are lifted right off a cassette tape, so there are only 2 tracks per CD. That means that if you are listening on a portable CD player, and you want to repeat something, you can't go back a short distance--you have to go all the back to the beginning. It's a real pain.

In addition, the booklet that accompanies the CDs only loosely follows the tape, which is also a pain. You spend a lot of time flipping through the book to try to find what they are covering on the tape.

Summary: Great Product But Needs a Level 2
Review: These CD's are similar to Behind the Wheel Spanish. Same great method and product. However, if you already have Behind the Wheel Spanish 1 I would recommend you wait for the sequel or Level 2 course before investing again in a different yet similar product. Both courses are great by themselves, but to purchase two similar Level One products from the same company may not be wise. Just buy one or the other and wait for the Level 2. I think Hugo's Advanced Spanish is a good one to use while waiting.

Summary: A Tremendous Help!,
Review: This program is a tremendous help for anyone whose study of Spanish was mostly concerned years ago with acquiring vocabulary for written tests. This "learn-vocabulary-words-for-tests!" style of teaching Spanish was popular over 30 years ago when I studied written Spanish in High School and College. But I longed to SPEAK Spanish to people--now finally here in this program "Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat" there is a really wonderful format which is aiding me in realizing this long-thought-about hope that I could one day SPEAK Spanish!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Spanish Set
Review: Very good Spanish vocabulary set with basic sentence structure. I find it very helpful.

Summary: Excellent Course. It's a Bargain!
Review: What a great course. I didn't even know that such a fast way to learn Spanish existed until a friend recommended I try
Conversational Spanish in Nothing Flat.
My version is multi-track and I love the method which is very user-friendly and unintimidating. In short, it's easy.
I became 'conversational' in Spanish within about 2 weeks of using this course daily for about an hour and a half a day. This means that I can now communicate basic likes and dislikes, express basic intentions and needs effectively using basic practical survival Spanish, ask basic questions and give basic answers, all while using my own original sentences. I have also learned quite a bit about how the language is written from the text which is included.
