Customer Reviews for Michel Thomas German Language Builder (Michel Thomas Series)
Excellent, but do the foundation course first.. posted on 2008-03-23
As another reviewer has said, Michel Thomas IS the language God. I'm doing a Berlitz German course here in Zurich, and it amazes me how much of what he (very clealy) taught me crops up in my advanced (Level 4 out of 7) course.

One tip though: do the 8-hour foundation course BEFORE doing this vocab course. This language builder course covers a LOT of vocab, thick and fast, and you may well find it overwhelming without doing the calmer-paced foundation course first.

Having said that, they are excellent courses, and THE best way to start learning a language.

Oh, and one other tip - amazon also sells a 5-CD language course "using the Michel Thomas" method. This claims to teach you 1,000 words. The problem is, it completely goes against his teaching principle, and is more of a "hit and run" approach to learning a language. Michel Thomas would be appalled. In a nutshell, if it hasn't got his face on the box, avoid it !
 
Highly recommended if you speak already a basic German! posted on 2005-09-03
I bought several AudioBooks to practice my German and I must admit I found all of them quite useful. What I appreciated most of "Michel Thomas German Language Builder (Michel Thomas Series)" was however the learning approach upon which this Audio-CD course is based. The sentences are carefully chosen to consolidate what you listened previously and somehow you get to learn how to correctly build a sentence in German although you are never explicitly taught about it. This course is probably not the best if you are an absolute beginner, neither if you are already proficient in German. It is anyway really good if you have already a basic knowledge of German and needs to consolidate your knowledge of it.
 
es gefallt mir sehr! posted on 2004-03-13
I was doing German for thicko's in my first year at uni and was struggling to put a sentence together. I bought this CD not knowing what to expect but found out that Michel Thomas is the language god!

I haven't studied german or listened to the CD in ages but i still manage to astound myself by waffling away bits of ze Deutsch which have been glued into my goldfish like mind!

 
Excellent-covers loads of German posted on 2002-01-05
This addition to the standard 8 hour course is excellent. It covers alot of vocabulary and grammar. I live in Switzerland and speak a little german everyday - this language builder has helped me to speak a little more each day. It is not easy tho' and one must repeat the course to get maximum retention & understanding. I reckon it takes around 3hrs to complete, and needs repeating at least once - but what you get for 6hours study if well worth the effort. I would suggest that on the next addition, the publishers put in at least a small 'pause' time tho', sometimes the CD pause misses out some important intonation that Michel speaks. Anyone who has covered the 8 hour course, the various 'Teach Yourself' or Pimsleur courses will benefit from this. The little booklet is useful too and can be used as learning tool in it's own right, and aids recall of the German you have learned.
 
Perfect for consolidation posted on 2001-12-02
Very good self-teaching material to build your confidence, particularly in speaking. Its audio-centered method is very effective and what you learn is stuck in your memory. I can now deal much more fluently with the notorious German word order. Recommended for all the intermediate German learners who feel they are stuck in some sort of impasse.
Wish it was little longer, though. Hope a more advanced course will appear.
