IMPORTANT NOTICE: To exit the Rosetta Stone software, please use the
bail-out (parachute) button. Keep clicking the bail-out button until
you are retunred to the "launch course" screen and then log
out. Simply closing the browser screen does not
close your connection to the program. When we reach 19 connections at
one time, other people cannot log on.
You can go directly to the Online
Language Learning Center or you can check out the resources available
on this page first. Below I posted the vocabulary for the entire unit
with the English definitions. Following the vocabulary, you will find
brief explanations of the grammar concepts included in each lesson.
Please feel free to give me feedback regarding how this content could

To get started, choose Unit 2, Lesson 1. We will be working primarily
with skills A & B in the beginning. A is listening with text support,
B is listening without text. Many adults are more comfortable starting
with text support and then moving on to the pure listening practice
later on.
If you want a preview of the materials in each lesson, choose the Preview
option. In preview mode, you are in control. Press the button on the
inside corner of the picture and the word will be pronounced for you.
The next step is the Guided Exercise. In this section, each
word is pronounced for you. Next, a word is pronounced and you are asked
to choose the corresponding picture. Once you have mastered all of the
words in the lesson, try the delay option--the button with the
blindfolded person. Press that button and then choose the guided exercise.
The word will be pronounced, but the pictures will be delayed for a
few seconds. When they appear, you are asked to choose the corresponding
picture.
After these steps, try the test for skill B--the button with
the ribbon icon. The minimum score that you should achieve before advancing
to the next level is 75%. If you score below that standard, you need
more practice.
