OMG, there are so many of these CD �s and books available on the web. Personally, I think they are all re-cycled rubbish.

 
 
Ask yourself: Yes, learning a language should be fun and �seem � effortless, but if this CD can really do what it promises, why isn �t it published in journals and printed inthe text books?
 ...Wink
Im sure it �s the same old stuff re-packeaged with a catchy title.
 
Here are a few quotes that came to mind when I saw your post ...
 
"Buyer beware"
"A fool and his money are soon parted"
"Life wasnt meant to be easy"
"No pain no gain"
"There �s no such thing a s a free lunch"LOL
 
... Im sure there are thousands more ...

Gosh, I �ve been speaking English for 20 years now and would too like to know how to "speak it without effort"...LOL
 
Please, don �t take us to heart, we �re just joking, but look - there will always be some effort in anything you do and in any language you speak, even your own.
 
What helped me to become good friends with English:
 
- listening to English songs a few hours a day when I was a teenager (a bit extreme)
 
- reading A LOT of very different kinds of books from Jane Austen to Paul Auster
 
- being in correspondence with 3 penpals for a couple of years, two were natives and one non-native but extremely proficient, so I learnt a lot from their letters and honed my writing
 
Dear Ian Huong,
 
you cannot speak English without effort, not personally you mind, but an objective you.
As I said there will always be some effort because English is changing every year, there will always be the effort with the new vocabulary and new trendy expressions.
 
Forget about those advertisers and just be patient. It will take some time to achieve fluency.

           Dear Collegues,
           I have been teaching English for 6 years.  As all you know, many people try to learn a foreign language (English), but none of them could be successful without their efforts. If you said that multimedia make it easy to learn English, I would agree. But learning without any effort is meaningless.
 
                                      Even a chicken cannot lay eggs without any effort
 
Best wishes :D
