Great language program June 18, 2008 Louis Russell Simonet (Kissimmee, Florida) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought Rosetta stone for my wife and kids. They're learning english, and even my 9 year-old daughter feels comfortable using it. The program has a few bugs or glitches, but nothing that prevents you from progressing. It's worth the price I paid. I recommend Rosetta Stone for anybody, regardless of age, that truelly wants to learn a new language. The immersion technique is great and complete.
It has been working for me May 9, 2008 Romain etudie (Chicago, IL) 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
Well, it may seems ridiculous, but if you can understand what you read right now, it's because Rosetta Stone has been working for me. My mother tongue is french. The level 1 wasn't really needed but it was get to refresh my old scholar knowledge. At the end of level 3, you'll know enough things to take the next steps by yourself and get fluent. I used it almost as a "crash course", something like 20 hours a week. That was really needed for my work and, probably, my survival in the U.S. It was less terrible than I expected to spend that much time learning english. the software lack some references and you end up learning stuff you don't exactly understand at first. But the Internet is full of references available for free. The difference with Rosetta Stone (compared to free stuff) is surely the immersion and a carefully built/tested pedagogy. It's kind of suprising to understand what this piece of software is doing to you. It's hard to describe the feeling but I always feel like my brain is manipulated and this software is pushing thing into it, without me realizing it or making some conscious and important effort to memorize these words and verbs. I have been introduced to Rosetta Stone by their other website. It's a language exchange network [...]. It's not for beginner but it's a really good complement when it comes to applying and improving what you've learned. I didn't bought the CD-ROM, I took the online sucscription. I'm more an online kind of person and it's more convenient because I'm changing my computer quite often, switching from one O.S. to another. At least I don't need to install, reinstall and activate it all the time and the online version keep my progress correctly.

a software note December 27, 2007 bukhtan (Chicago, Illinois, USA) 19 out of 26 found this review helpful
This product is sold as licensed software. Users will NOT be able to load it onto more than one computer. This aspect of the product is not clear from the blurbing on the Rosetta Stone website. It is a "single-user" product. Don't think that you can share this with friends, or that it is appropriate for a lending collection.
Rosetta Stone V3 English (U.S.) Level 1-2-3 personal Edition December 22, 2007 Charlie (Chicago IL) (USA) 7 out of 12 found this review helpful
During the sessions, several times a message appears indicating "there was a minor error" doing the process of learning too long and slow.
