I have the 10 CD beginner set, which I finished, the 5 CD advanced (I only went through the first CD), and this 2 CD set. I finished the first CD of this 2 CD set. It is far more difficult than the first 10 CDs. It does not have the two students and crams a lot of information. It is good information, but it is not for the ears of a beginner or borderline intermediate student. The pace is good for someone who is rather advanced. You might be better off doing the 5 CD advanced set and then this CD. When you do this CD set. Listen to each track several times.
That's the way to retain the information on this CD. Michel should made this into a 4 CD set and elaborated more on what's in these CDs. People still are trying to train their ears in the language. I loved the 10 CD set and the 5 CD set is pretty awesome. I am glad I bought this 2 CD set, but it is going to be quite a challenge for me, so I might not recommend it to a beginner unless the person can go over the stuff with patience. |
