Summary: Virtually pain free introduction to German
Comment: I purchased the 2 CD set (Speak German with Michel Thomas) to play in my car on the way to work, and found it easy to follow. Although I have little prior experience with German, I have many German clients, and Thomas' pronunciation and inflection seem very close to theirs. I found myself mastering the vocabulary he presented quickly (more quickly, in fact, than the two students on the CD). Thomas introduces sentence structure as an exercise in getting your point across rather than a grammar lesson. One caveat: The 2 CD course is a bit short on vocabulary, and introduces only about 60 German words or so. Go for the 8 CD set (German with Michel Thomas).

Summary: A language course that works!
Comment: Finally, learn a language like a child - by speaking it. No idiotic drills or memorization. And you don't have to be a "rules engineer" trying to think of complex grammatical rules while simultaneously trying to speak - a method which we've all experienced to be an abysmal failure. Also, Michel has a way of building complex structures, simply, while ignoring vocabulary - which you can and do learn as a "byproduct."

Summary: Not worth the time nor money
Comment: The man can not even speak english clearly. I have had German before and wished to review. If one can speak German after listening to all eight CD's then I'm a monkey's uncle. Save your money and go to Pimsleur. I have to agree with one of the other reviewers, Thomas sounds like he is about to drown in his saliva. Mann kann hier kein gut Deutsch lernen!
