What the press saysWhat customers sayHelen S, Marietta, GeorgiaLearning language and finding love online
Two years ago I visited France to meet a wonderful guy I had been chatting with online. Although I had taken French in College, my conversation skills were non-existent in French. Fortunately he spoke great English, but that first trip was so difficult when trying to speak with his family and friends who did not speak English. After buying some language CDs, books and taking a refresher French course last year, I still had difficulty carrying on a conversation in French. A friend told me about Rosetta Stone and I checked it out at the airport after one of my trips to France. I purchased a six month online membership for French levels 1, 2 and 3. I can now speak the language and have a more complete understanding than I did from any other books or programs.

I can now speak the language and have a more complete understanding than I did from any other books or programs. Being a visual learner, the pictures and interactive audio really improved my pronunciation and conversation skills. I am planning on moving to France this year and Rosetta Stone has really given me the confidence to begin a new life there with my Frenchman!Rudy M, Huntington Beach, CaliforniaDeveloped New Neuro Pathways to aid in my recovery
I suffered a traumatic brain injury in May 2006. I've been limited in physical and cognitive activities after my injury and have suffered cognitive challenges. After discussions with my doctors and therapist, they recommended that learning a new language would help stimulate my brain. According to them, learning a new language increases brain function and creates new neuro-pathways. I chose to learn Portuguese, a common language in Brazil. I'm interested in the Brazilian culture and the beauty of the people. My goal is to speak the language to better understand the culture and develop new relationships.

I'm interested in the Brazilian culture and the beauty of the people. My goal is to speak the language to better understand the culture and develop new relationships. What surprised me about learning the new language through Rosetta Stone was that even after my brain injury, it was very easy for me to learn the information presented in the lessons because of the simple straight-forward way it was presented and the various techniques provided. The Rosetta Stone techniques are very motivating and helped me to build my self-confidence in speaking a new language. For example, the visual aids were extremely helpful on a cognitive level. The lessons stimulated and challenged my mind without taxing it, in other words it was stress and anxiety free. Taking the course I developed new neuro-pathways and stimulated my brain, which has helped me in my recovery. I feel very confident that I will be able to speak and understand the Portuguese language which will be very helpful in my travels and experiences to Brazil.Tara P, Escondido, CaliforniaSpanish to Arabic...what next???
My husband and I work in resort real estate. Most of our projects have been in California. We were hoping to be reassigned to Central or South America. I knew some spanish from living in Costa Rica and I tried to teach him, but there was no hope. He couldn't even roll his R's. I purchased Rosetta Stone for him at Christmas time and within 3 months he could carry on simple conversations. I was stunned and so I am now taking the course to learn more. Now, instead of moving to a spanish speaking place, we're moving to Dubai in the Middle East. We've decided to purchase Arabic so that we can at least have simple conversations and show respect for their country. I can hardly wait!Cynthia S, Amarillo, TexasRosetta Stone confidence
I did not broker a million dollar deal, dazzle small children or amaze a large crowd with my Rosetta Stone language skills. I am a middle aged woman from a small midwest town with a dream of going to Paris. When I actually had the time and the finances to go, one small problem came up, I could find no one to go with me. My husband stated that he was not interested, my Mom said the same. None of my fiends had either the money or the time, so I went by myself. But not without proper planning, which included ordering the Rosetta Stone language in French 1. Every night, sitting at my computer, the little headphones on, practicing my diction, my husband would snicker.

My husband stated that he was not interested, my Mom said the same. None of my fiends had either the money or the time, so I went by myself. But not without proper planning, which included ordering the Rosetta Stone language in French 1. Every night, sitting at my computer, the little headphones on, practicing my diction, my husband would snicker. My friends at work, suffering through my practicing on them, which consisted of answering any question that I happened to be able to answer in French. They kindly faked amazement and tolerance. But then, departure day came. Armed with Rosetta Stone confidence, I was able to call the shuttle company from the airport and say "Bonjour, j'ai une reservation. Mon nom Mme. Speed" They knew I was a struggling American, but answered me slowly in French and I was able to follow the instructions on where to meet the shuttle bus. I had leaped my first language hurdle and there was no stopping me now, I checked into the the hotel, my room was "c'est beau", I was ordering meals and stating that the food was "c'est delicieux". The waiters would grin. The nicest thing that I did, a lady stopped me on the street with a map in her hands asking, in French, where was this particular shop. She was talking really fast and I could barely keep up, and I took a look at her map and could see what she was looking for, it was a shop that I had just passed and was able to say, sort of, "c'est bas juste la rue". She was a little taken back and said, in English, "you are not French? You look French"...I chuckled and she chuckled and took off for the shop. The language course gave me the confidence to navigate a transit system, read menus and ask for a ticket for one to a museum. It is a small victory for a middle age woman who wants to go to a country and amuse the locals with her confidence and ability to speak their language.

"I came to Italy to start Sapori e Saperi Adventures, a business giving people gastronomic tours to small artisan producers in Lucca and the Garfagnana, and I needed to speak to the locals. None of them spoke English. I had learned Italian 30 years ago, but by now had forgotten more than I'd learned. I thought I could get it back by studying my old grammar book, but I soon found myself totally tongue-tied. Every time I wanted to say something, my brain would start asking which tense the verb should be in and whether the adjective agreed with the noun. I didn't have time to attend a class, and anyway, I needed something that would get me speaking in private where only I knew if I made a mistake and I would have a chance to correct it.

A friend of mine recommended Rosetta Stone.The first thing I noticed was that very quickly my comprehension improved enormously. I could even begin to understand the people in my village who speak a million miles a minute with a strong accent. At the same time my confidence was increasing, I didn't feel afraid to ask questions and join in conversations. In my business dealings I can ask more precise questions, give clearer descriptions of what I need from my food producers, cooking teachers and drivers, and so I get a better service from them. And I can find out more about their families and their personal interests, which means our relationship improves and I learn more about the local culture and food. Finally, I can speak and understand well enough to interview some of them and write their stories for a new English-language magazine here in Tuscany, so other people will learn about these wonderful people and the delicious food they produce.I started with Rosetta Stone by subscribing online. I figured if I bought the physical package, it would sit in a corner and I'd never use it. With a subscription that will end in six months, you're always aware of the time ticking by, which spurred me on to do a little every day, which I'm sure is the best way to learn. Now that I'm hooked, I've bought the whole package -- levels 1 to 5, which will cost less in the long run since I don't have time to study a lot each day. I'm sure it won't gather dust on the shelf. It's far too useful for that."Ted S, Plymouth, MinnesotaInternational Medicine and Starting Our Family
"My wife and I have traveled to many Central and South American countries for medical relief work, but when we decided to adopt our first child from Colombia we knew that our minimal understanding of Spanish wouldn't be sufficient. We purchased the Latin American version of Rosetta Stone and quickly learned areas of Spanish we were lacking or needed refreshing. When we were in Colombia adopting our son our Spanish was so good that most people thought we were fluent!
The Spanish we learned was retained very well and easily comprehended that 6 months later I spent a month in Peru and was able to pick up where I left off without any trouble. I was able to work in hospitals, clinics, and remote villages and communicate with others with ease.

It was great to have a resource like the Rosetta Stone which continually tests the knowledge you have built and places you into real conversations as part of the learning process."Andrew M, Shreveport, LouisianaI Knew No German
I was born in Germany, but when i was very young my family and I moved to the USA. All of my family spoke German and because I was so young I had not even started talking by the time we left Germany. I was raised in an English speaking world and in a culture that spoke no German. I always felt like an outsider because everyone in my family spoke German except me. By the time I turned eighteen I purchased the Rosetta Stone German, and within 7 months I was speaking fluently. My whole family and I were amazed. THANK YOU ROSETTA STONE!Linda S, Phoenixville, PennsylvaniaHalf Thai girl reconnects with her family
My mother is from Thailand, yet she never taught me Thai. This was a difficult challenge for me when I was finally able to meet my older estranged sister in Thailand in 2004. She spoke no English, and I had less than 3 months to prepare of the trip. With only a previous history of learning mild Thai, I felt completely unprepared for the trip. I found Rosetta stone Thai and diligently began to study the language. Upon arrival, I was instantly able to speak to my sister. My two nieces, 5 and 7, were speaking quickly in Thai. But I was able to understand some of what they said, and was surprised at myself when I was able to understand more throughout the trip. The Rosetta Stone really helped me reconnect with a family that I barely knew. Thank you so much for helping me!!!Jennifer A, Wakefield, Rhode IslandHelping out in the highlands of Guatemala.
I love using Rosetta Stone as an adjunct to more traditional Spanish lessons. As an adult learner who never took Spanish in high school or college, I started learning Spanish by taking some private and group Spanish lessons at a local language school. But, I work full time, go to school part time, and have a family! The time and commitment to scheduled class times didn't always work out. Rosetta Stone gives me the flexibility to learn and practice when ever I can. I can also work at my own pace which I really like. Each year as part of my job in the physical therapy program at the University of Rhode Island (the part I love the most) I take a group of students to Guatemala to do volunteer work at a school and therapy center for children with disabilities.

I have to be able to communicate with the staff at the center, with the children and their families and the locals in the community where we stay. I'm no where near fluent, but Rosetta Stone has helped me to be able to not only do my job better, but to experience more deeply the richness of the culture and the people who are now my friends.What the press saysWhat customers say"Rosetta Stone is a work of art."

Awesome Tool at Great Price
"I really am thankful that I was able to find a language product that is simple to use, easy to understand, and I'm able to fit this program into my own schedule! The quality of this product tops all competitors, I have not seen a product that is able to provide the essential tools needed to develop my language skills to meet my professional goals (Korean)."

Excellent Program
"I am a 50 year old dentist. For ten years I have been desperately trying to learn Korean. However, no matter how I tried, I was unable to comprehend anything. I tried many books, tutors, cd's, and tapes... all to no avail. For some reason, my mind was unable to retain the words. Connections between the words and their meanings were nonexistent, my pronunciation was horrible, and I could not comprehend anything when it was spoken. I was ready to give up in frustration when a friend suggested Rosetta Stone. I was rather unsure.. After all, the other programs had failed.. However, I was willing to try once more.. From the very beginning, I found Rosetta Stone to be very interesting and even fun! With pictures and repetition, I was quickly able to retain the meaning of each word. It was almost like a game and I found myself greatly enjoying my daily lessons instead of dreading them. Within a month, I have learned much more than what I acquired in 10 years! My pronunciation has greatly improved, I now know the meaning of hundreds of words, and korean people can actually understand a full sentence of mine! I am extremely grateful to Rosetta Stone for creating a program that can actully teach me in a fun, creative, interesting way! Soon I may be able to speak fluently! I am very thrilled at the opportunities Rosetta Stone has opened to me.. Thank you."

Absolutely Necessary
"I am American and my wife is Korean. For years I have tried to learn Korean from her family and even a private tutor, nothing worked. Rosetta stone provides consistency and accuracy of intonation (which is crucial in Korean). It is the best way to learn, period."

Awesome
"Being able to learn a new languages is in my opinion a skill necessary for this new age. The world is connected with the world wide web and if your better able to communicate with someone across the globe, you'll have opportunities others wont. Some of my co-workers are native Korean speakers, I'm Mexican-American and they are amazed at my quick progress. Some even say I know more than their children. My co-worker ordered Spanish the very next day. I'm so glad I ordered your system. Thanks."
