Summary: Worked Well in the Car
Review: I'm not much of a foreign language person, and want to function well when I travel to Quebec and France. Mark Frobose's audio tape set got me off to a great start on French. I worked with it in the car on my commute on and off over the course of a few months, and now have a good foundation in the language. I really appreciated the teaching style, and the interaction between Mark and Celine, his native French speaker. There was a good balance between vocabulary, understanding some basic grammar like verb conjugation and past and future tense, and explanations of how French and English differ or are similar.

I especially liked having a transcription booklet so that I could refer back to the lessons at home and see how the words were written and spelled.

I am going on to their Flash French II set, and would recommend the first set to anyone.
