Summary: O ano ba kumusta kayo?! This is a nice way to learn!
Comment: This was a wonderful. It is a great way to learn to speak tagalog and unlike other products almost everything I say, my Tagalog speaking friends understand just exactly what I'm talking about. If you buy this book you should Definitely buy a tagalog-english/english-tagalog dictionary because this book was designed for a class room that has a teacher to explain pronunciation and different words. It has a tagalog-english glossary in the back, but if you are like me (still learning) you will be looking back there (in the glossary) at least 4 to 5 times per page that you read and there is only a 50% chance that the word you will be looking for is there. By the end of this book you will have a better understanding of tagalog sentence structure, be able to speak conversationally in a variety of situation (not all situations), and will be impressing your filipino friends and their famlies. O sige, Diyan ka na. Pupunta ako sa aklatan. Paalam

Summary: good introductory-level text
Comment: I found this book complimented my other books well in learning Tagalog. There are many gramatical explinations and good vocabulary builders. The focus is not pure memorization but to develop your skills in the language and understand how it works. The text is probably better for a more structured learning environment. It is not geared towards the "Teach yourself" learner.

Rating: 3
Summary: a good place to start
Comment: This book does include many useful phrases, and will teach you some basic vocabulary. However, the instruction on grammar stops at giving examples of phrases. Given a slightly different situation, the examples you've memorized could be rendered useless. A good book for those going to the Philippines for the first time and those who want just enough to get by on. If your aim is fluency or actual conversation, however, I would look somewhere else.
