Hi forum. I've heard that Tell Me More offers pretty qualified material about language learning, especially on harder languages such as Chinese or Arabic. It's a program, so if anyone here has used it? How is it like? Is it good? I found out that my school library is the only place in Turkey that contains these courses, so I wondered... Thanks.

Lakkhamu, I don't know much about the Tell Me More program (other than what their website provides) but did you already try the Search function here (up on the black headline banner)? There are a number of threads that were tagged with Tell Me More.
Several of the threads don't provide much information; they simply consist of a solitary post asking for info about Tell Me More. But there are a few that might hold your interest until you get more replies here.
Wish I could be of more help.

I've never used Tell Me More. I've tried other material from the same company and I wasn't impressed.
If your library has it, why not just give it a try and let us know what you think?

I might well post a review, but it will take some time. I'll perhaps try German or Russian.

I just tried (English performance) and I think the other like this one
at the beginning you start with decide which level you want then choose the way you want to start your study (there are two option 1 study with programme guide , 2 study free without this guide ) although that there is one option I can't remember now !
lesson 1 provide many phrases about language ( about first level ) then it's testing your understand about these phrases from choosing the correct answer then
some words come through puzzle game then after solved it , start to testing your speaking for first phrases , this test is more complicated because the programme asks question and it want from you specific answer with right pronounce and its accent ( absolutely like the programme) then you finished lesson one and directly back to the lesson board to pick another lesson or to repeat lesson one if you want that !
hope that's useful to you

there is one grammar lesson through lesson 1 , it's explaining (for example present continuous tense )
