 I can speak Spanish! March 27, 2010

I love this CD set, as well as his "Basic" version. Michel Thomas is criticized for his non-Spanish accent and the errors of the students he uses on the CD (it immitates a classroom setting where you are the third of three students). HOwever, he always corrects and repeats whatever has been said wrong, and you learn from others' successes and failures. Native Spanish teachers say my pronunciation after using this method is quite good - better than their other students. You begin constructing sentences almost immediately, and he teaches this construction without using grammar terms. There is no rote memorization or "repeat after me" boredom, and you aren't stuck learning "Buenas noches, como esta" for half a CD as I have been with other methods (not kidding). You absolutely must pause the CD player as he instructs, however, and try to construct each sentence yourself, then hit play. You cannot learn passively with this set. I found it ideal for long trips or Washington DC traffic jams. I've tried *so* many products, but this is the one I come back to whenever I need a refresher. This set, along with some work with tutors, has made me capable of getting around and conversing reasonably well in Central America - which is terrific!
Best method found. It truly sticks! May 8, 2010

I purchased the Spanish Advance Series after completion of the French one and I am still amazed at how much have I learned in such a short time! It's worthy every penny, and more. My review of the French Series applies to this one too. I feel I can learn ANY language with this method, just like with the Pimsleur that I also love, but for different reasons. Both methods are great if you are as busy as I am and learn while you drive, or exercise, or are on the plane, or in any other spare time you may have. You can't go wrong with Michel Thomas Method.

Michel Thomas will give you the tools you need to speak a language. For practical, language learning I have seen no other program that comes close to the Michel Thomas method.

Michel Thomas Method Spanish For Beginners, 10-CD Program (Michel Thomas Series)
This is one of the best programs that I have ever purchased or even listened to. Although the teacher has an accent, he is very easy to understand, and his method of memorization is so easy. I am so eager to get started on the second CD in this advanced series. This set even comes with its' own zippered leather CD sleeve case, which was a nice surprise. If you are serious about learning Spanish, this is the course for you!!
 The students drive me crazy! July 16, 2010

I've learned a lot from this series. However the the students that babble and stumble through the process drive me crazy (especially the woman that monopolizes most of the answers). A much better purchase is the Advanced Booster CD (2 disk set) It features only Michel Thomas (which is much better). I like the 5 disk set- but I would learn 1000 times faster if the 2 students weren't constantly giving wrong answers.
