Customer Reviews:

A pretty good review of GRAMMAR.

I bought this product after having finished LEARN IN YOUR CAR FRENCH 2 and 3. Both courses covered about the same material. This course stressed verbs, but also includes dialogues and some on-tape drill. (A large paperback book accompanies the course.) Wheras the LEARN IN YOUR CAR course repeated everything twice (once fast, then once slow) this course only said things one time. They figured you can rewind the tape as often as you wish.

It is nice that the tapes include several dialogues and even little "lectures". This gives the tapes a fair amount of variety. The cassettes themselves are not stereo. They sound best on a simple, mono player.

All in all, a pretty good value for the money. Sad to say, FRENCH 3 went downhill from here.

I was disappointed - not enough exercises to really practice

I find that to learn a language, I need to to do more than repeat. I need to listen and respond. These tapes have a lot of material to repeat, but spend only a little time on exercises requiring responses.
