Spanish (Spain) Level 1 & 2 Win/Mac Personal Edition [Old Version]

Superb learning tool for Spanish. Vocabulary and grammar are taught with logically sequenced written and spoken sentences corresponding to color photographs from everyday life scenes. A bonus is that my two and a half year old grandson delights in sitting beside me and pointing out "el gato" ... "el caballo" ... "el perro" and others.

We are a retired couple hoping to learn Spanish to make travel more enjoyable. Using Rosetta Stone you hear the words/phrases, see them written, and see a picture showing the word or action. You can speak the language and write it. It provides lots of review. We were afraid we would not have the self-discipline to use the program everyday. However, we are finding this not to be a problem. You can use it for short periods of time, or for longer if you want. My goal is to understand and make myself understood in Spain. My husband's goal is to become fluent (he took Spanish in high school and college, but never got fluent). Unlike "school" Spanish Rosetta Stone does not bog you down with grammar rules. Also, the speakers speak excellent Spanish, not with American accents as many of our teachers did. We think we can reach our goals.

The many different avenues of learning that Rosetta Stone offers helps the user make associations that get results!

while there are many benefits to learning vocabulary with this tool, I found it did not help with conversation.

I ordered the wrong Spanish Language Learning Sucess kit for my husband for Christmas. Although he had taken off the outside wrap, Rosetta Stone graciously allowed us to return the set I had given him and in return they sent us the version he had originally wanted. Rosetta Stone made the return very easy and fast.
