Good workbook and CDs. Went to the Berlitz website for free download of additional documentation for course work. Downloaded 'advanced French English dialogues'. I need to see the words in print to understand and then speak them correctly and fluently. Guess I'm a visual learner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quite Excellent for Building Blocks of Sentence Patterns
Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2012

I've been studying French at university for 1.5 years. I don't use the book but it's an important adjunct for those who teach themselves. The greatest thing for me are the interesting topics and sentence pattern fragments on the CD's. If one practices them enough they can form their own sentences. The muscle memory built up from saying them along with the narrator whether at home or while driving will aid immensely in repeating the phrases under actual situations. Since I have few opportunities in the States to practice French dialogue, these CD's help keep in memory those hundreds of hours spent in language study. I have been to Paris twice so rest assured that this method works for most people.

This is more of an advanced-intermediate product. The book offers grammar lessons. The discs offers French conversations. It's a strong curriculum, but ultimately, the only way to learn French is to speak it.

I love French language study books and recordings. You can never have enough practice when you are a fan of French language and culture, or when you are heading over. I burn them to iTunes, and walk around listening to my lessons as I go about my day.

Very expensive for what they give you. The book is chocked full of useful dialogues and vocabulary but is very short. No interactivity. Three cds.

4.0 out of 5 stars Same method used in most language schools
Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2009
I've been studying at Alliance Francaise for many years, and this method is usually the method used in most language schools. Since this is advanced, prior knowledge of the french language is required. First, you'll have a conversation and then you'll have to disect the conversation. You'll learn lots of vocabulary and French expressions. The book has parts on setting, grammar, pronunciation and cultural information. The CDs are composed of 1 cd for the conversations, and the other 2 cds for the listening and speaking exercises. I'm already on Level 13 of Alliance Francaise though so I feel that the advance lessons in this book are not that challenging. Also, the other 2 cds for listening and speaking exercises are really more for listening and not speaking. It doesn't ask you to translate English sentences into French. Although it has an activity wherein you'll have to describe things, or explain things, there is no way you could find out if what you're saying is correct. But overall, I like this book because it doesn't deviate that much from the format that I'm used to (e.g. Alter Ego, Panorama, etc..) and also there are lots of content.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not really advanced!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 6, 2010

Perhaps to an American - as this is an American textbook with American English spellings - this is "Advanced" but to a reasonably well educated Englishman, I would call this book no more than Intermediate. The audio dialogues are not long, there's only one per chapter, and then they are repeated on the CDs at the same speed. I still haven't figured out why!
The textbook is easy on the eye, gives plenty of colloquial and informal words and phrases but I just get the feeling that it is not in-depth enough. Surely the verb tenses which it explains would have been learned long before you get to an "Advanced " book? It's what an American might call "French Lite".
