Story4.5 out of 5 stars 83
After years of teaching intermediate students who never seemed to improve, I decided to find out what the problem was. Essentially, intermediate students get stuck because learning at this stage is a different type of learning than at the beginner stage. You have mastered the grammar and the basic vocabulary, but most textbooks just carry on like nothing has changed. However, what you need at the intermediate stage is not just more dry grammar and lists of vocabulary.

Not as good as the originals
A creative audio for the price and I highly recommend it. I've listened 3 times and will likely listen a few more times. I especially enjoyed the stories with the breakdown of all the words used in the story. Other than that it is a long way short of the original Verbal Advantage series I have on cassette. Charles made every word seam like it was the best piece of trivia I ever learned and I wanted to tell everyone about it. He would also relate every word to all the synonyms and antonyms elsewhere in the series. This series does some of that but mostly blows through all the words without much of the extra effort that I'm used to from CHE. He would always complete the analysis of a word so that I felt like an expert on that word. In this series, I often find myself searching through the content to find the other words that relate. CHE did that for me and it was much more entertaining.
