Ask yourself:
Are you an Auditory Learner?Are you a Visual Learner?
Are you a Tactile/Kinesthetic Learner?
Know your preferred learning style.

Then, do you have lots of time to study in front of a computer? And last, do you have financial capacity to spend for Rosetta Stone or Pinsleur?

Why are you going to spend so much with those programs since there are lots of various language learning program in video, audio, printed lessons etc. for FREE! Just be patient surfing the net to look which is interesting and enjoyable.

If you are a busy person you can't use ROSSETA language software programs when you are driving, walking, riding or while removing your doo doo.

While through MP4 or tapes or printed materials, flash cards your learning will be flexible. Though, Pinsleur 's is audio but the disadvantage is that there is no printed or visual materials but only audio. Therefore, it will not fully help you if you are a visual learner.

Better to spend your money to look for a personal tutor or go to the country of your target language.

May 20, 2012 Entry to the video contest" I LOVE KOREA , BECAUSE..." , submitted to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of the Republic of Korea.

The video is about my reason why I love Korea. I visited S. Korea for 5 times within a span of 2 yrs. only (2010-2012) and learned their history, culture, arts and people. 

In addition, it shows visually how friendly, accommodating they are to foreigners specially to Filipinos like me. (not racist).
