Instant Immersian Starter [Posted on 2001-09-07]
This has been an excellent vocabulary support for my daughter who has entered a German Immersion Program as well as for my nephew who needs additional help in his Spanish class. The program uses flash cards with colorful pictures to teach vocabulary. Talking animated characters assist the child through their learning experience. To reinforce the vocabulary, there are interactive games which are colorful and interesting. I especially like that there is no limit to the number of times the child can have words or phrases repeated so it assists in pronounciation of more difficult words and phrases.

Mostly good but doesn't record [Posted on 2002-03-24]
My kids and I have learned a lot from this software. It's fun, so it keeps them involved, and I've even found that as an adult I can enjoy it and learn from it. However, I have not been able to make the recording function work, so we don't get that chance to compare our own pronunciation to a native speaker's. I know the trouble is not in my computer. I don't know if it's in my recording set-up or in the software.

once over very lightly [Posted on 2002-10-01]
I had high hopes for this software, but I found the games to be less than fun. All in all I would not buy this software had I seen it first. However there is vocabulary and possibly for an older child it would be helpful. I doubt my first grader will "play" with it.
