At the begining i was impressed by the course, especially in the "intercative audio lessons" but in my opinion the grammar section "language and cultural lesson" it is a mess, sometimes very complicated without a clear path. It is weird and does not make really sense, there are not enough explanation concerning the rules and new words.
About the writing section i can say it is ok.
It feel like the chinese course is a

I like the interaction in the 'Play it' section but there are problems;

1. The programme frequently states that it has not heard my reply - despite that when I press playback my reply is very clearly there - this is very frustrating and time consuming.

2. The programme makes no allowance for a beginner taking time making a reply which inevitably takes a lot longer than a fluent speaker would take - this again is very frustrating and prevents making best use of the programme.

The only reservation I have is the fact that basic, essential grammar is not part of the first lessons. For instance, basic conjugations of "to be" or "to have" are not detailed and explained, but simply mentioned during lessons.
This is a problem since the grammar of the Spanish language is different than of the English language.
With this exception, I am content with the quality of the course.

Very poor experience regarding the numerous simple spelling mistakes and inconsistent and sometimes just plain wrong translations. I expected much more from a paid for language learning tool.

So far so good! I feel as if I'm back in school learning espanol! I cannot wait to try and speak to my new Costa Rican friends!! If I wasn't already excited, now I'm feeling a rad bit for confident with some new Spanish vocabulary!!

A good way to learn some basic language skills that can assist with getting around a foreign country.

The accent is laughable. As in, my spanish friends couldn't stop laughing. It's Mexican spanish, in a bad accent. The plays and lessons are mired in stereotypes, sexist, and awful. As far as actually learning Spanish goes, I'm struggling on with it, but I can't say it's really helped so far. Hopefully it will start sticking, but having spent six weeks in Madrid recently, I didn't feel this course helped me at all, and I was still struggling with even the most basic conversations. There doesn't seem to be any background to the lessons, or intricacies of the verbs and their conjugations, which are just brushed over.
I've paid for it now, so will keep persevering for the moment, but I regret the purchase.

Emphasis on pronunciation is nice, but the voice recognition is utterly horrible. It only works about 40% of the time on the first go. I find myself just skipping it because it's so bad.

cool
and super cole and like so coooooooooooooooooooooooooool

The speech recognition is terrible. It is very frustrating to repeatedly have to say simple words like tre, or anno because the first half of the word isn't picked up, also p and c are often confused by the software. Learning needs to be enjoyable and before I get the carbon copy have you tried setting this, get a better headset b.s. I have a $300 state-of-the-art headset that I use for zoom meetings, online test proctoring, and music production. It is NOT my equipment. This whole course is centered around listening (which works perfectly) and repeating to work on pronunciation. I am assuming and hoping that it will be better later in the course when I am speaking in complete sentences, but I'll never know because I can't justify paying this already high price for a program that doesn't work from the beginning.
