Great learning tool! I really like Fluenz over all the other systems I have tried including Rosetta Stone. The only thing that stops me from giving it 5 stars is because the iPad app and the computer program do not sync with each other so you have to keep track yourself where you left off. Pod casts are excellent as well.

My Story I have been working through the program for about 3 months. I have found it very user friendly and appropriate for my level (beginner). I enjoy the interactive approach. I plan to visit Mexico again in the relatively near future and hope by then to be able to make myself understood in most everyday activities.

Fluenz is a great program for when you're traveling abroad. I have tried many different language courses and Fluenz I thought was a simple course that can be done at any time during my free time. I just spent an hour a day on each lesson and it helped me to learn a lot. Fluenz is pretty similar to Rosetta Stone, but it also has some differences. Fluenz is a good program is you are traveling abroad.

Excellent program. Great results! I really appreciated the broad scope of this program. Instead of learming vocabulary in a vacuum, it gives the exact amount f framework you need to speak understandably and correctly. I love Sonia's presentation of the material. I completed The last lesson of Italian 1 on the plane to Rome; and was able to make my way through Italy with what I learned. So glad I chose Fluenz over the other leading program! One suggestion: A short review built in as a stand alone at the end of each session would really help when you are just looking for refreshers of things learned during a session. The audio CD is great and helpful, but doesn't quite perform this need. Overall it was great and I highly recommend Fluenz.

Good program, minor issues. As a beginner, I found the Spanish program difficult to use during the listening and typing sessions. Words often blend together, are rushed, and generally don't make a lot of sense. With the new program, I am not able to report feedback on individual lessons, which doesn't help. At least when I could report on issues I *hoped* they would get resolved. Additionally, I ran into issues with my Mac headset. System requirements are vague and not well thought out. Luckily, the online version of the program sufficed until the issue was resolved (Not resolved by Fluenz tech support.) Otherwise, I do really enjoy the teaching style of the program. The lessons, reviews, spoken reviews, etc have been terrific, and help me understand things mor comprehensively. As a past Rosetta Stone customer, this is by far a much better program.
