I like how you "hit the ground running” with Language101.com by learning everyday useful phrases. There are no “the monkey is in the tree” phrases.

I have tried another nationally recognized language tutor which introduces words and concepts prior to useful phrases. The result was my enthusiasm for learning quickly waned, and I had very little to show for hours of study.

I am a pastor, and Language101.com has helped me learn spoken French far better and faster than any of the other language programs on the market, and I have tried most of them.

Other programs took way too long for me to learn what I wanted to know. Just put in the time each day, and you will be amazed how fast you learn and retain what you have learned.

When I tried another picture-prompted trial Spanish tutorial, I was immediately discouraged. Being in my 50’s, I thought maybe I was too old to learn. My first thought was “there goes my life-long dream of speaking Spanish!”

Then I found the introductory lesson for Spanish with Language101.com and felt as though I learned something immediately!

I needed to hear how the phrases sounded as well as read them after I try a phrase. Being able to track my studies and manage my lessons allows me to feel in charge of my own learning progress. I often found myself studying long after I intended to stop because I was just so excited and having so much fun!

Having traveled to Belize, Panama, both coasts of Mexico and Costa Rica it was so frustrating to want desperately to communicate in such a beautiful language and be unable to.

Now at 61, I feel it can only go up from here. It’s such a rush being able to speak to someone in Spanish and make myself understood! The outcome is well worth the work. It's a little like standing on top of a mountain after the climb!
