Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Very good but not a miracle maker
I've been using Tell Me More now for a few months, and I've finished the Complete Beginner and most of the Beginner courses. I've also been able to recently try out Rosetta Stone's French course (next year's goal). I took a ten week summer German class about five years ago, taken about two years of ancient Greek, a year of Hebrew, a semester of Latin, and two years of high school French. Which gives me a strong familiarity with language teaching, even if my discipline has not given me entire familiarity ... Read More
Rating:  - Little or No Teaching
The program teaches through giving you exercises to do, but like other 1-star reviewers commented, the program does not actually teach you anything. You have to go to different screens to find out any grammar explanations or word translations. My biggest beef about it was that you have to answer many of the questions orally & if you don't have near perfect pronunciation, the program will not let you progress to the next question (even if your answer is correct). I was really hoping it would help me practice ... Read More
Rating:  - A well-rounded in depth program
I noticed some of the one-star reviews here and had to comment. First, the bad news: the videos and music, etc, are a little dated. Second, it definitely expects a lot out of you. Sometimes it seems a little daunting. The good news: it's in depth. This is no flash cards, memorize some phrases nonsense.
I set my program up to do 5 hours a week and by the time I finished my first CD, I felt like I'd just gotten out of a semester class. I guess this is my way of saying it's not for the faint of ... Read More
Rating: - Pronunciation is Key!
I ordered this product because there wasn't much to choose from in learning the German Language. I am amazed how other reviews can give it 5 stars. But then again after reading their reviews I understand why. I had this product for over a year and I listened to all four CDs. The first CD was impressive and if anyone rushed to review it, they will give it 5 stars. The other CDs 2, 3, and 4 were terrible. The main thing in learing any language is not fun exercises, it's pronunciation. This is the main reason for me purchasing ... Read More
Rating: - The TRUTH about this product!
I picked this product to purchase because I thought it was the best. I didn't go off any bogus reviews, (like the one's on Amazon). I thought it had the most features and seemed all inclusive. I got the Performance version which includes 10 levels.
Let me start out by describing how the software starts you out:
The first thing you do is listen to two people meet each other for the first time. Seems simple enough. Next, you begin doing exercises, crossword puzzles, fill in the blank, identify the ... Read More
