Hey, I'm looking at learning a language (well, relearning the case of Spanish (I really need a hobby!)) and I was wondering if anyone on here has used Rosetta Stone and got any opinions on it, as it was what I was thinking I'd use. Cheers!
Yay i might look into it then, i heard its really good ^^ ---------- Post added 28th Jun 2014 at 03:53 PM ---------- Its so expensive!!??!!??!! I cant afford 190£ upfront and 18£ a month >.<
It's total junk, especially the Spanish. Repetitive nonsense, you won't learn, you'll just get frustrated. It was my "Spanish class" in 9th grade. I didn't even do it after the second week.
I've used it to review Japanese I had forgot when I was in my early 20's it's great for review but it won't make you fluent in any language that I know for sure :dry: My cousin has used it for Spanish and it was great in helping him but don't expect to become fluent their liars saying it will make you fluent , Your better of going the school and it also helps if you know the language before hand go to school don't waste your money .
^ All very interesting points, thank you. I guess I'll reconsider. As far as language schools go, those aren't really a priority over here as far as Spanish is concerned haha
Always take a real, in-person class. Sometimes the old fashioned way is the only good way. You can't learn a language without thorough lessons with contact with other students and a professional teacher.
I can help you practice. I speak English, Spanish and German. We can converse in Spanish together over the phone or by chat. Anything most convenient to both of us. Just PM me if you're interested.
