Book Description
Now learning a foreign language can be enjoyable as well as challenging, and

Language Course makes learning easy, satisfying, and more fun than ever

simple and effective - but would be better with the tapes,
September 27, 2001
Reviewer: A reader
Grammar explanations are brief, but they get the point across better than
other books I've seen with more wordy explanations. The vocabulary and
dialogue examples are quite relevant for everyday traveling experiences.
This book won't teach you the characters. |

Very accurate in pronunciation and grammar, April 12, 2001
Reviewer: A reader
Chinese in three months presents pronunciation and grammar in a much
simplified manner so the beginner will have a great understanding of the
language. It explains the four tones in the language thoroughly. The only
problem is that it doesn't teach you how to write Chinese at all. You will
speak chinese well but be totally illiterate. |

The same old stuff in a new colour and volume., March 3, 2001
I have many courses . I found this one the eaziest and unboaring to
follow ,when I studied an older print. However, one cannot do with a
language like Chinese without accompanied cassettes and a Chinese Girl
Friend. |
