Review:

A language lifeline ... fun, fast and easy -- The Independent The simple scripts and audio make it crystal clear ... I'm delighted with my progress. -- 'Greece' magazine 20030701 "Its narration is laid-back and encouraging and the method is straightforward" (4-star review) -- Time Out 20030701 The elements are simple and very straightforward ... strong encouragement ... plenty of opportunity for spoken practice. This course worked very well for me. -- 'Professional Manager' magazine 19990901 I am terrible with languages yet I am picking up Spanish! -- Helen Goddard, Devon 19990901 We think it is wonderful. -- Tom and Maureen Peil, Preston 19990901 I loved the sense of humour ... Each week I did the final test with bated breath wondering if this time the little bar chart [...] would take a nose dive - but it didn't. -- Lesly Hopkins, Twickenham 19990901
