I cannot afford private lessons at this point. I don’t even know if I can budget (time and money-wise) a community college class. This popular (and expensive) Rosetta Stone seems a bit too good to be true. I haven’t spoken with anyone who’s used it successfully.

It also might be a bit precocious. Hmmm…
