Has anyone used any of the computer based programs to learn a foreign language?
I speak a very modest amount of German, took classes in grade school, high school and college. But I find no use for German in daily life and most of my skills have suffered from atrophy. I'd love to learn Spanish, we often travel to areas that are Spanish speaking and are looking to do some additional traveling in central America where most nations have Spanish as their primary language.
So I'm considering the ROSETTA STONE software. Anyone ever try it?
Or do you have any other advice on how to learn a foreign language?
