5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to learning Turkish, 3 Sep 2001
By A Customer
If you enjoy learning languages with the aid of tapes, then this is THE ONE for you. The gradual build-up and repeated drill approach is perfect for grasping this 'strange' sounding, un-European language.

You can follow the tapes with or without the book. You get a thorough drill of the key language and new vocab. Then you follow some longer dialogues which set the vocab in context. And lastly, you get to practice what you've learnt with various exercises. This powerful combination serves to consolidate your learning effectively.

I've also tried the Berlitz & BBC phrase books with tapes. The Berlitz tape has phrases as well as practical exercises but they are diffcult to follow unless you have photographic memory. There's no script to follow with the tape so you have to skip all over the book.

The BBC tape does have an easy to follow script and contains a slightly broader range of phrases/vocab than PDQ. However, it's basically a parrot learning excercise so you need to go through the tape a few times. Like PDQ, it builds up gradually.

Overall however, the PQD wins as the best inroduction to learning Turkish because of its friendly, encouraging approach.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the complete beginer, 8 Aug 2003
By A Customer
After trying another Turkish audio pack without success I bought this one and found it to be much better. I would recommend it to the complete beginer. The book is easy to follow and the repetetive nature of the audio CD's mean you quickly pick up new words and phrases. I found it very encouraging and helps to build confidence even if your not very good at learning languages. As an introduction to Turkish its great, in three weeks I have already learnt over 100 words!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent tapes - high quality printed material, 18 Jul 2001
By intentionally_blank (Surrey, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This really is good for keen beginners. It starts off easy and by tape three new, interesting and RELEVANT phrases are introduced. I've got many Turkish language tapes and the Linguaphone course is by far the easiest, most useful and best quality. The sound production is excellent and the accompanying printed material is easy to read and surprisingly colourful - more akin to the French and more traditional European language textbooks.

This is a good course - it's just a shame it stops at four tapes, they really should bring out an intermediate and advanced course too.
