 Rosetta Stone V3-Spanish (Latin America) Level 1,2,3 June 16, 2008

I purchased this for my college-aged daughter so that she could become proficient in Spanish. This has given her the practice she needs that the classroom (high school) did not.
 Great Addition to School Learned Spanish June 13, 2008

I took 17 hours of Spanish during my undergraduate degree, but could not speak Spanish. I could read Spanish, but I could not understand it when spoken. Rosetta Stone takes a different approach to teaching Spanish than my university. It has made understanding and speaking Spanish within my reach. I had a strong vocabulary base, but Rosetta Stone has helped me to be able to speak and use this vocabulary in everyday conversation. This is a great complement to any Spanish curriculum. It is a wonderful option for those who couldn't learn Spanish "the old fashion way."
 WIsh I could actually review the product but... June 10, 2008

I'm sorry, but this isn't a review of their actual product. It's a tale of virus infected software and terrible customer service.
I purchased Latin American Spanish Levels 1, 2 and 3 from a Rosetta Stone Kiosk. When I loaded on the first level, my virus software (BitDefender) notified me that 7 of the content files were infected with the Exploit.SWF.Gen virus. Not a huge deal, but it quarantined the files so they couldn't be used. I sent an e-mail to their customer service asking if they had received any other compliants like this and what I should do. Their response? (after thier automated "thanks for your question, we'll get back with you as soon as possible") Nothing. Sent a follow-up e-mail. Nothing. Call me crazy, but when you spend $450 on a software package, a little customer service would be nice.
I'm in the process of returning the software. Can I return it to the Kiosk? Nope. Company policy. I have to mail their junk back, on my own dime. To rub salt on the wound, you have to jump through several hoops to return the software and have to listen to their unbearable customer service recording (over and over since it takes quite a bit of time to actually speak with a person) about how much Customer Satisfaction is important to them, how they understand how valuable my time is and how an easier way to contact them is through e-mail. Hah!
Good solid program June 6, 2008
This is a good solid program but without my having taken a Spanish course before, this would have been a lot harder. Taking a begining Spanish course either before or in conjunction with this would help a lot. I would recommend this as a supplemental program. Covers a range of skills needed to learn a new language.
Interesting Language Learning Possibilities June 4, 2008

I am very pleased with the features of the product. Usually, language programs require you to just listen and write. This program uses speech recognition technology, and you speak as you go along. The program prompts you if you are wrong. It's enjoyable! -Gary Ciesla
