    2.0 out of 5 stars Good software but READ review, 7 Jan 2008
    By Banjoe Bob (England) - See all my reviews
    This course has one major problem. Once a series of lessons is started it MUST be fully completed. There is no facility to stop and save which is extremely frustrating. This means repeating the same work over and over again. If you e-mail the company they will send a patch to allow saving. Otherwise the units are well constructed and the games are fun. My son enjoyed the work and the problem can be resolved.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Lessons not remembered, 15 Sep 2007
    By Stephen Griffiths (London, UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I was initially impressed with this program. It doesn't have the gushing enthiusiasm of Mavis Beacon, but one thing is really annoying and that is if you start a series of lessons and have to stop half way through, the program takes you back to the beginning again. I have been through the upper key lessons three times now and for various reasons couldn't complete all the exercises all at once. Every time I go back to the course the system insists that I start all over again from the start on upper keys. Now THAT is annoying.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Hugely Frustrating!!, 22 Feb 2009
    By P. Williams (UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I wish I had read the reviews before I bought this. The inability to save a lesson is hugely frustrating. You have to complete each level which is impossible in one session so be prepared to leave your pc on for a week or so. Trust me, this is so bad it negates any benefits. On the positive side it's amazing how quick you can learn but don't buy this one.
