Teach Yourself Afrikaans Complete Course Package (Book+ 2CDs) (TY: Complete Courses) 5 reviews Lydia McDermott
McGraw-Hill, 2005
Afrikaans Review
+ A good course with awful recordings + Teach Yourself Afrikaans, book/CD combo.
The Afrikaans learning program is well-presented and well-written. The dialogues are concise and aidful enough to allow the learner to understand the language much easily. The audio CDs is a must for the program as this is a language which requires careful listening and imitation of the sounds.

Colloquial Tamil: The Complete Course for Beginners (Colloquial Series (Book Only)) 3 reviews Ron Asher
Routledge, 2002
good resource
+ Good book, if you know the language a little
Though the authors have done a commendable job simplifying a very difficult language, there are several things that could be improved. The course is transliterated in Roman script rather than Tamil. Though useful perhaps for taking a holiday to India, it's not helpful for someone truly interested ...

Dedication will pay off

While the older version by Roderick MacKinnon may be better for all the fine points of grammar, this is the version you want for learning conversational Gaelic. The lessons build upon each other gradually, so you'll want to master each one before preceding. With dedication, you'll do just fine.
