In Europe, it's no secret that the vast majority of people
are either bilingual or trilingual. The Euro Method is the easy and simple way
many Europeans learn to speak a second language. Based on the same tried and
proven techniques that allow a four-year old to learn to speak a language long
before that same child can read or write, Instant Immersion Hebrew is guaranteed
to be the best method for learning to speak Hebrew quickly.
For years, linguists have known that immersion--being surrounded by native
speakers and culture--is the absolute, fastest way to learn a second language.
The two CD-ROMs enclosed, Talk Now! Hebrew and World Talk: Hebrew, simulate
immersion and will move you from beginner to intermediate speaker faster than
any other language learning software.
Talk Now! Hebrew is designed for beginners who want to learn as quickly as
possible. Whether on business, vacation, or meeting a foreign visitor, Talk Now!
is the disc to get you started. Hearing and practicing authentic everyday speech
develops your natural ability for language. The disc's quizzes, games, and
stories are fun as well as educational, and you'll be amazed at how much you
remember after a surprisingly short time.
World Talk: Hebrew is the next level up, featuring additional activities,
more dictation, and a recording section that lets you hear and compare your
voice with a variety of native speakers. Topics include the calendar year,
building sentences, asking directions, and using numbers. The interactive TV
quiz is definitely a hit, where the resident champion may turn out to be more
intelligent than you think! You can also compare your skill with a one-on-one
match with a friend.

Contains Two CDs. I really liked the first one. The Talk Now! CD is good for
learning vocabulary. The double pronounciation between a male and female speaker
was a good touch. I learned a lot of new vocabulary from this CD.
But in the second CD (World Talk), there was a big jump in level. They start
giving directions in Hebrew and using words that you would need to learn
elsewhere. Verbs are used and conjugated without defining them or explanation.
Useless for a true beginner. If I had just used the first CD-ROM and then
started the second disc, I would have been totally clueless as to what was going
on.
Series doesn't deal with the Hebrew Alphabet or Grammer.

This is not immersion. It is a series of games in Hebrew. The games will
teach you vocabulary, but it will not teach grammar nor will it help you make
sentences.
On the positive side, I did find the games were useful in getting down
vocabulary that I had a hard time memorizing. The other good thing about the CD
is that there is no English.
