I felt like I wasted my money., March 13, 2004
After the glowing review I decided to try this product out. After only 3
hours this disc was useless to me. There is very little information on here let
alone usefull information. In no time one can complete the entire program. There
aren't any pronouns included which I expected would have minimally been there.
The disc also can't be run off of the hard drive so one has to wait for the
program to load every few seconds while listening to the life of ones cd drive
wear away. A great idea that has fallen horribly short. A simple phrase book
would have been more beneficial.

In New York Finnish language courses are hard to come by. I have been trying
to teach myself to read, speak and hopefully write Finnish for years so I could
speak with my cousins and grandmother overseas. It was a daunting task because
books left me uninspired and tapes just don't work for me. Finally as a last
ditch effort I took a chance on this program. I was pleasantly surprised to find
that the program actually makes the process of learning language fun. The
program and quizzes are colorful and engaging and manage to combine, listening,
reading, understanding and speaking into one fun exercise. I have progressed
with this program 100% faster than with the methods I've tried before. I
definitely recommend this program to anyone who would like to start learning
Finnish.
For those who are a bit more advanced or are anxious to get to the next level
the Intermediate level for this program is World Talk Finnish.
