2.0 out of 5 stars Not impressed - not for kids

One thing I did not like at all with this product is that when it teaches beverages, it focuses on beer and coffee (or wine). Why not teach juice or even soda? Anyways, in the introductory lessons you see adults at the bar and drinking beer and when they ask about drinking, it's "wine" or "beer" or "coffee". -- they should not advertise for 12 and up with so much reference to drinking alcohol.

Another thing is that it introduces a few phrases/words for vocabulary that are not common. For example: "scorcher" -- who says that?

Anyways, I do like the bird that teaches grammar -- he is entertaining, but he's only in the introductory lessons thus far, it seems.

I use this program to tutor an ESL student in English. I would tell someone else to NOT get it.

If your trying to learn english this is definitely not the answer. It's outdated, difficult to download to your computer and just doesn't help.

3.0 out of 5 stars About this program
Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2002
This program works on my computer properly although I have Windows XP. My problem was that I couldn't locate more advanced lessons on these disks, so I stuck with the easy ones although I bought this program to improve my English, not to learn it from the very beginning.
When this program tested my English, it said that I don't need to take general lessons, and that was all it said. It didn't take me or show me where the advanced level is. I think there is no advanced level in this program.So, that is why I am not satisfied with this program.

Well, I bought 3 of these for my nephews in South America. You know what? The kids are eating them up! It's a pretty decent CD Rom set. There's voice recognition technology (you'll need a headset)which lets you talk to the computer using simulated conversations.It's got like 200 lessons and loads of exercises for all levels. There's even a placement test at the beginning. Not bad for 20 bucks...Caveat : Program tends to crash every now and then.

This software emphasizes pronounciation and will also teach you all basics including grammer, conversation, and reading. What this program is really good about is speaking practice; examples are abundant, speach recognition is good in comparison to other products, you can have conversations with computer in various ways, and it's fun.
I recommend this software to anyone who has a problem in pronounciation.

2.0 out of 5 stars Obsoleted when it came out
Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2004
I see so many people who brought it in 2003 or 2004 say it's obsolete because they couldn't download the internet lessons. Guess what, I brought it directly from The Learning Company when it came out in 2002, and I couldn't download any of the internet lesson since the beginning. I called technical support, they told me the internet courses will be available later, since the product is very new at the time I brought it. I waited and waited, the internet courses never available. The CD is too basic, and it doesn't offer much. People should look else where for a better quality product than Learn to Speak English 8.1.

1.0 out of 5 stars Obsolete product - Do not buy it.
Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2004
I bought this product for my niece. This is for a beginner
who just start learning english. I can't access the Internet
Lessons category from the CDs because all the files are no
longer existed and can't get help from technical support
either since this is an obsolete product. Technical support
is terrible and such a waste of time - You are on your own
with your problem!
