Michel Thomas German Advanced Review Language Course CD
[0340939028]

Michel Thomas materials have been phenomenally successful since they were first published some six years ago. The brand new Review courses are a major new offering. For the first time, the student can quickly and easily review the entire teaching contents of the main course, to establish which areas need to be revisited or to consolidate learning. The Reviews can be used in many ways: when the student reaches the end of the main course to check or consolidate learning; as a quick refresher when the student returns to the main course after a lapse of time; for the newcomer to Michel Thomas looking for an overview of what the main courses contain.

All the main teaching points have been lifted from the corresponding Advanced course and are contained on just 1 CD. The student at home hears Michel teaching a specific point, there is a pause which allows time for the student to give his/her response to Michel's prompt, followed by Michel giving the correct response. If the student has struggled or given an incorrect answer, she can use the index in the accompanying booklet to locate the area of the main course where the specific language point was being taught in depth and can return to the main course to work through the relevant section again, quickly and efficiently. Only Michel's words and phrases are on the new CD, so the course is summarised succinctly and with a new, snappy pace.

Less of a good thing  
I found the Advanced German course very practical. Both that and the Foundation Course had a question-and-answer format which focuses on grammatical building blocks. Michel says a phrase and two learners have a go before the teacher gives the right answer. This package is exactly the same as the Advanced course but with the two learners' responses edited out. That's it, really. The result is obviously a more compact offering, and it works very well as a reminder of the points in the (admittedly quite long) full course. Not sure it would work independently, though, without the explanations. What distinguishes MT courses it that they are not a simple list of phrases; there is a feeling of progressive construction. This is now reduced back to a simple list of phrases with (due to the prompts being edited out) some idiosyncratic intonation. I'll be using it as a quick revision aid before a trip to Germany in a few weeks, but I suspect it is probably not much use without having done the other two courses.
