- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I couldn't get past the narrator sounding like she is reading this in the bathroom. Made it all of 4 minutes.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5This is terrible. The sound quality varies, different people read it at different speeds with different accents. You're better off picking up a dictionary and just reading all the words yourself. This shouldn't be at the top of recommendations.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I had to skip sections because it was very unclear what a non English speaking person was reading. People who have strong accent should not be reading educational English materials, only native English speakers. Poor job.
