Product Description

Product Description

This is a fun, portable way to learn language basics. Not just another audio language program, the "On the Move series" features an engaging, natural approach to language learning ideally suited for today's hurry-up world. Unlike other audio programs that feature dreary drill formats and seemingly endless word lists, these innovative programs convey all the vitality and color of the cultures in which the languages are spoken. A lively narrator guides listeners through each course, at times meeting up with two other native speakers who take part in an unfolding story line that encompasses an array of everyday subjects, from meeting people, eating, dining, and shopping to getting around town, telling stories, and family relationships. Each package features: 3 60-minute audio CDs; a 32-page listening guide; sound effects, language games, and an engaging story line. It includes dozens of unscripted conversations that introduce key words and phrases as they're really spoken.

4.0 out of 5 stars I now know some Chinese, 12 Aug 2009
By M. Le Breton "Michelle" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is an okay product, which has helped me to learn some Chinese so far (I'm on the second module), but I have found a couple of annoying things. Firstly, the English lady is really annoying, with a couple of choice quotes being "A dog called Motzart? Hope he likes music!", which is irritating when you have repeated the track a few times to try and get a grips of the language.

The second thing that irritates me is her suggestions for how long it should take you. I'm not sure if I'm not good at languages, but she says things like "It's a good idea to repeat this module 2 or 3 times to really get to grips with it". I have tended to have to repeat all the tracks about 10 times to try and pick up the majority of the language they use.

Other than that, it is quite good, and has achieved its goal of teaching me a spattering of Mandarin. It isn't that comprehensive, but for £5, it isn't bad!
