"The other day I had a chance to go through several chapters of
[Elementary Hindi] textbook and workbook, using the CD. I was most
impressed! It is a very fine, professional job. I like the clarity
of presentation, and the way you introduce the alphabet in
installments, with lots of vocabulary. I also like the
illustrations using architectural motifs." --Phil Lutgendorf,
University of Iowa
"Everything is taught together: vocabulary, grammar, conversational
skills, cultural insights, reading, writing, and listening; no
aspect is neglected. For this reason, it is especially useful for
self-study." --Hindi Language.info blog
"While these particular Tuttle textbooks are suitable for, and
typically used in, classroom settings, including in some of the
best universities in North America, they can also serve as an
excellent out-of-class reference tool and can very well complement
formal language classes or other study materials for the
self-learner. From my experience, this series should appeal to a
broad range of people, including individuals working on their own,
professional people working with a tutor, or students in a
classroom setting. I have personally used the Tuttle Elementary and
Continuing textbooks both as part of university classes and on my
own, and I have been very satisfied with them." --Lingholic blog
