Best way to learn!

It is commonly known that music/songs are much easier to recall than simply spoken prose. Please, please, please make more of these lessons/songs in Russian. It's a brilliant idea! I'd buy every one you make. Спасибо!

Worth it for beginner.

Pros: catchy way to learn words

Cons: You don't learn a lot of words. I would be interested in a continued series. I wish the first chapter was broken up into smaller sections.

Enjoyable learning

A practical range of topics covered for survival and travel communication. An enjoyable course...Engaging host speakers.

great language learning tool

Each lesson is a different topic. Some build on previous lessons and some stand alone. The English guy says what he wants to say and the Russian gal says it in Russian. Then they break it down into easy to learn chunks, point out key words and phrases, sometimes cover some grammar, work on pronunciation, etc. I studied Russian for three years in high school and I was still learning new vocabulary and word usage. I would definitely recommend.

Only complaint is that the entire first volume is one very long chapter. The second volume is broken up by lesson, which is much easier to navigate.

Fun way to practice

I really have enjoyed this approach to practicing my Russian. I'll continue listening to this and will update my review in a couple of months to see how well it worked as far as retaining the phrases.
