I bought this package to go to South America. I found it helped and I learned quickly. But when I arrived I had stage fright and forgot my words. However this package is easy to learn. And it has made me want to learn spanish even more I love the fact, and I only found out today, that I can record over Mauricio and listen with both our voices. I use the spanish I have learned at work with other south American colleagues, they are astounded at how well I pronounce the words.
