Summary: Superior Hebrew Learning Tool
Review: "Vocabulearn I, Vocabulearn II" audio cassette and booklet.Both of these reasonably priced packages (level I and level II) contain 2 x 90 minute cassettes and a 50 page booklet of the words used (Hebrew, Enlish and a phonetic translation). Unfortunately they are only available in Hebrew/English. As there is no attempt to teach any grammar you will need to use them in conjuction with a book, or this course . Audio programs can be hard going for absolute beginners - 750 or so words on one cassette can be overwhelming. Each cassette consists of 4 x 30 minutes sections - Hebrew then English, English then Hebrew. This means that you practice both understanding spoken Hebrew and formulating the right word to say in Hebrew. Audio courses are an important way of learning the language because of this reason, and are handy because you can put them on in your car/walkman on the way to work/school, or doing household chores etc. The contents are mostly individual words, and some common expressions - around 1500 in each package. They are superior to any other audio courses I have heard, there is no music fading in and out or silly introductions to be listened to 500 times.
