February 16, 2008 at 11:19 AM posted in General DiscussionI just worked away my backlog with the Media lessons coming at last (as always).
I just want to state that I am impressed about the high quality of the reading in the recent audio-versions of the Media texts.
The audio version used to have the function for me: "Last check if you worked thourougly enough to at least partly follow the rapid fire read-aloud text".
The recent audio files however *add* meaning to the text - they are presented not only with meaningful accentuation, helpful voice buildup, but also with: compassion. This indeed adds a new semantic layer the Media lessons.
Don't get me wrong - the old audio files were not bad.
But reading aloud is an art and your new "reader" is an artist. A huge compliment from me for the lady.
加油!
