thought it would have a bit more and I'm disappointed that they will not be making a complete course ...
Audio has only 2 hours, thought it would have a bit more and I'm disappointed that they will not be making a complete course of this. otherwise an excellent addition to my Micheal Thomas library love the Spanish, and German courses. follows same format that is so effective for me.

Michel Thomas method does it again!
I was glad that Hindi is now one of the Michel Thomas courses. Bakaya's voice and method are a good introduction to Hindi in a relaxed manner. My only suggestion would be that Total Hindi (the more complete course) is not yet available, and I hope to see it soon.

Don't waste your money. Wait for the full MT course, if there is ever one.
The teacher was more interested in convincing me of the greatness of India than in teaching Hindi.

Great spoken Hindi course!
I just got this for my birthday — and went through the whole course in less than a week..! I've already tried it out at my fav Indian restaurant (my pronunciation made the waiter laugh, but he assured me, that my Hindi was "very good"). Of course, this is not yet enough to understand a full Hindi movie (though I'm now able to catch some sentences, I definitely still need the subtitles), so I'm now impatiently waiting for Total Hindi! Studio students are reassuring, specially the girl, though slower (like me!), she's so cute!! The teacher is fun and even replied to my question on facebook (just google his name).

Where's the rest of the course?
It's great, but when there is still no follow-up to this start edition and not a word from the publisher on when or even if there will be a follow up, what's the point in starting with this Michel Thomas course?

Horrible, pedantic, and plainly stereotyped.
