	The complete immersion environment puts your native language-learning skills to work, eliminating your dependence on tedious translation and rote memorization.

	Images		Intuition
	In Rosetta Stone you learn the meaning of new language from clear, real-life images. In this activity you learn colors.		You advance using language you've learned and clues from new images. That's your intuition at work. Now that you know colors, you can easily grasp the meaning of the new words...
	Interactivity		Instruction
	Throughout Rosetta Stone, you constantly interact with the program to confirm your intuition. ...and then check what you've learned.		From beginning to end you build systematically toward your language-learning goals, for the most effective and enjoyable instruction anywhere. And finally, you get the fun of trying your new language in a real-life simulation. Speech recognition shows you exactly how you're doing.

Customer Reviews

great system
I am now on the 3rd and final level of Rosetta Stone's Spanish (Latin America). I have been very impressed with the series. I do also use Pimsleur Spanish CDs in my car to supplement my learning. I'd recommend both to anyone interested in learning any language.

Good version to accompany 2nd year college spanish course
The whole series is a great companion to any formal high school or college course. I would say level 1 and 2 would be fine for first year college spanish, and level 3 is also very good. But may be more matched for second year spanish. The whole program is doable over 1 month if you spent 40 to 60 minutes a day.

It is one of the best way to learn conversational spanish. The goal is not simply to "complete" the lesson with 90% or better score, it is to listen to and repeat every phrases presented to you. It will take more time, but what you retain is much higher if you can hear yourself repeating what the native speaker say multiple times.

By the time you are done with a level, you would have repeated the same phrase over about 20 times.

Level 3 introduces more command styles (informal and formal), the subjunctive tense, possessive pronounds, and past participle. I believe that these are touched upon in first year college spanish, and practiced more in second year.

The program will help you memorize common greetings and common commands. Highly recommended. As close as you can get to an immersion program without leaving the country.

Rosetta Stone Espanol
Rosetta Stone is a great product. The lessons are well organized. I can learn at my own pace and see results. I want to continue in more languages after I complete level three.
