Rosetta Stone is one of the most popular language learning programs out there today.
It’s unique “immersion” teaching style creates a good foundation for embracing and
understanding a new language, as well as building vocabulary that will stick.
Though, the fact that it does not get you speaking sentences very quickly can make
language learning a little discouraging, so it would be good to supplement this course
with one that focuses on greetings and beginner sentences and phrases.
(Note: you can often find this program much cheaper on Amazon or Ebay)
Also, less commonly known, there are now free printable workbooks and test sheets
available for download to use along side this program.
A fun, exciting, and highly effective way to learn a foreign language!
PowerGlide moves away from traditional styles of language study (with primary focus
being on grammar and rote memorization) this program teaches language the way we
naturally learn it, conversationally and practically.
This program uses a multi-sensory approach to language learning, with songs, games,
stories, and activities.
A very hands-on way to discover a language!
From the makers of PowerGlide . . . this new language learning program, PowerSpeak,
incorporates the same multi-sensory learning styles, but with the usage of modern
technology.
Courses are online, with interactive games and video.
