I am a "dummy" who knows very little German. The set combines audio guidance with a pamphlet that tracks the audio. So you can hear the word or phrase first in English and then in German while reading the same in the pamphlet. The package fits my needs perfectly. Review: Fun Fun Fun - I have recently come back in contact with a long time friend from Germany and he speaks fluent German but, I lost the ability once i moved away back to the USA. This guide is allowing me to pick back up on phrases and have conversations with him. My goal is to become fluent just as he is by 2014 if not sooner.!

Great format for beginners
I am using this guide to prepare for a trip to Germany and Austria. I am a "dummy" who knows very little German. The set combines audio guidance with a pamphlet that tracks the audio. So you can hear the word or phrase first in English and then in German while reading the same in the pamphlet. The package fits my needs perfectly.

German for Dummies
I like this product, you actually get to see the words and then hear them. I So hope this dummy can learn this to hold up my end of a conversation. Learning to write the words are helpful when you have people write to you. The CD arrived in very good condition.

adequate intro to German for a traveller
Many of the example sentences were difficult or impossible to understand. Word choices were more awkward compared to the Pimsleur courses I'm listening to.

excellent program
Love this set so much since I found it at our local library, kept renewing it, so when I found it for $10 I had to have it. Great to listen to in the car.

which I find excellent. Does not go into any grammatical explanations
The authentic native speaker models the phrases, which I find excellent. Does not go into any grammatical explanations, which makes it simple and easy to use.

German for dummies is a great intro product, it enables you to get a feel for the language. Pretty basic but good all the same, very easy to follow, and I felt that the learning was sinking in, in a logical sequence, great for someone who want to get a feel for German,before making the decision to move on to more advance kearning
