I have seen older cassette language programs produced by Reader's Digest. They look to be 12 cassettes, and have a mini dictionary. Does anyone have eny experience with these programs?

The courses are a minor variation on the Pimsleur 1
programme and consist of 16 audio cassettes. I've done the Italian and German and half the French one. German one was OK, the French slow but the Italian course is excellent. Basically it's a story of a couple (English hubby, Italian wife) who visit Italy, and it takes the listener through a lot of useful day-to-day stuff. Certainly a very good intro for the complete novice. I also recommend the Linguaphone Italian AllTalk programme - another audio only 16 CD programme, which again has a storyline (of a rep visiting Italy and not being able to speak any Italian). Both can usually be picked up cheap on EBay. My copy of the Readers Digest Italian was £7.50 plus about the same again for postage. Trust this helps.
