I would be the first to tell you- I was sad to see Rosetta Stone pulled from our online resources. Not only was I really planning to learn Spanish one day (eventually) but also we had this great video on YouTube that everyone just loved!

Fortunately the sting was lessoned a bit when I heard we would find something to replace it.

I had my doubts, but so far the new Tell Me More language learning software from Auralog has impressed me.

If you plan to try this out, let me first tell you that it is NOT Rosetta Stone. And I think Auralog prides themselves on that.

Tell Me More is a little more academic in its style and it has more variety in its excersises. The latter I think will appeal to people of different learning styles. There aren’t as many languages available yet, however Auralog plans to expand their collection.
