Tell Me More Spanish: Is It Any Good?
In short, yes! It is good.
In my opinion, it is probably one of the most comprehensive, if not the most comprehensive, learn language programs available.
In fact, the distributed learning high school I teach at uses it for their online language courses they offer.
The great thing is you can buy it for yourself and receive top notch curriculum and instruction in the comfort of your own home.
In my opinion these are the highlights of the Tell Me More Spanish Program: 1.
20 hours of interactive video lessons Any language software worth it's salt must have enough content and breadth for you to be able to achieve mastery of the concepts otherwise it's not worth your money.
You may just want to learn the basics but with Tell Me More you have the option to go way beyond the basics.
2.
Speech Recognition Software (yes you read that right!!) I think this goes without saying.
If you want to speak the language than you want to make sure that you are pronouncing the words right.
Tell Me More Spanish is one of the only programs with speech recognition capabilities 3.
Virtual conversations Practice makes perfect.
To become fluent you will need to practice and virtual conversations put you in real life situations that allow you to put your new language skills into practice.
Repetition will help you commit your new knowledge memory and make speaking second nature.
4.
Ability to download lessons to your iPod Take the lessons with you if you are on the go.
Gives you the flexibility to do a lesson while you are on lunch or when you have time while you are out and about.
For the busy person this is extremely helpful.
Also if you are in a situation to speak Spanish but need some help you could review a lesson you have downloaded.
5.
Progress tracking How are you going to know how you are doing if you can't track your progress.
This also helps to give a nice linear path from one lesson to the next and some assessment of your learning.
6.
90 day money back guarantee Goes without saying.
If you get it and find out it's not for you then you have ample time to send it back and get a refund.
I think if someone is really serious about learning Spanish, or any language for that matter, and is looking for a software that offers a really comprehensive curriculum than Tell Me More Spanish is the way you want to go.
