 Good solid program June 6, 2008
This is a good solid program but without my having taken a Spanish course before, this would have been a lot harder. Taking a begining Spanish course either before or in conjunction with this would help a lot. I would recommend this as a supplemental program. Covers a range of skills needed to learn a new language.
 Interesting Language Learning Possibilities June 4, 2008

I am very pleased with the features of the product. Usually, language programs require you to just listen and write. This program uses speech recognition technology, and you speak as you go along. The program prompts you if you are wrong. It's enjoyable! -Gary Ciesla
Immersion software that really works! June 3, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I've been working with the Rosetta stone software for about 3 weeks now, as little as a couple of hours a week, and I am already noticing remarkable results. For example, at the grocery, I can pick words out of packages that are bilingual. The seemingly simplistic activities are really sticking with me! I have a heck of a time with pronounciation, though. It will drill you and drill you until you get that part right. :)
I wanted to note also that my copy came with a set of headphones in the box, I didn't know it would have them, so I ordered an extra set. If you're looking to save a few bucks, keep that in mind. :)
Excellent addition to a learning program May 25, 2008

My Spanish has always gotten me around Mexico and South and Central America OK but I always stumbled through anything much more than getting on a bus or ordering food. Since I am giving serious thought to retiring in Central America or Mexico I decided this was a good time to pick it up a few notches. I also frankly find it embarrassing that when working in other countries all educated people are multilingual while I am stuck with tourist Spanish and English. The Spanish Latin America V.3 has been an excellent resource for me. As several reviewers have pointed out, no one book, CD, etc. is going to teach most people a foreign language. However, I have found it to be a great underpinning of my study. I combine it a Learn Spanish in your Car CD series, dictionaries, TV, Spanish language newspapers and forcing native Spanish speakers to endure my grating speech. What I have found most useful about RS is that it has made these other resources much more helpful. The Learn in you car CD sat around for years without much use but now I find it useful when combined with RS. Much the same with other resources. So pick up a copy and then immerse yourself with as much written and spoken Spanish as you can from all avenues.
 Product Support is Essential! May 17, 2008
7 out of 10 found this review helpful
I recently purchased Rosetta Stone Spanish from Amazon.com. I was initially delighted by the product and its approach to learning a new language. I then started having problems. I realized that an essential part to writing Spanish is the inverted question mark at the beginning of every question. I could not determine a way to make this symbol and I contacted Rosetta Stone Support via the internet and via telephone. I was amazed to learn that the normal level of support could not solve my problem and was told I would have to talk to a supervisory level. I was finally contacted by supervision 4 days later. In the meantime, I decided that this was not going to work and returned the product to Amazon.
