thanks for the reviews of some of the language courses out there. this will certainly help people like me to decide which language course to use. it gave me a great deal of information on which language program i can use. i noticed that living language ultimate from random house is not in your reviews of language courses. i was hoping if anybody could give me their useful opinion regarding this language course as well. my cousin just gave me one in french and mandarin and i was hoping if this language course is any good before i start using it. thanks for anybody who would answer me.
