How not to teach a Language January 10, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is an example of how NOT to teach language. It purports to have small snippets of conversation but they are contrived events with sound effects that annoy rather than enhance. Concepts are not very clearly presented and you will spend more time figuring out what they are trying to tell you than learning anything.
You are far better off going to one of several UK sites (like BBC) where they appear to know how to teach languages.
Perfect for Independent Studying October 8, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The Teach Yourself Welsh course is fantastic! I was in doubt a while back when I tried to find a good Welsh program (that wasn't as expensive as Rosetta Stone) and Teach Yourself stands out! The Teach Yourself interface is great and the other Welsh-related books by Teach Yourself work as great additions to your own personalized course. I would highly recommend this to any aspiring Welsh student!

My daughter is delighted!! September 12, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Welsh is an extremely difficult language to learn. The way Welsh words are spelled is NOT the way they are spoken. If you cannot hear the spoken language, you just cannot learn it well. This course has it all!! Very comprehensive and, surprisingly, very inexpensive!! I would highly recommend this course to any serious language student.
A great tool June 12, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Welsh is not the easiest language to learn, but it is hepful to be able to sound out place names and converse with people in their own language while on holiday. Within a few days of working with the CDs, I was able to read a little Welsh, and then actually carry on a few simple conversations. The book and the CDs work very well together. I highly recommend them!

This is working out very well. The books and the CD's work well together. I recommend it for use. The dialogs in the book help tremendously.
