One of the best ways to learn Tagalog is with Rosetta Stone Filipino. It's a comprehensive program for learning Tagalog. Inside the Rosetta Stone box is CD-ROM software (Windows / Mac), a user's guide and a free headset microphone.
Start with Level 1, which includes basic vocabulary and sentence structure. Topics include Tagalog words for saying your age, family terms, household items and times of day. You learn Tagalog phrases for buying and selling.
Once you have your basic Tagalog words and sentence patterns down, Level 2 will help you learn intermediate conversation skills. You will learn how to ask Filipinos for directions and the time, and make polite requests. In terms of Tagalog grammar, you'll be dealing with past and future tenses. Level 3 helps you learn to share your ideas and opinions, express your feelings and talk about everyday life. It's a step towards fluency.
Rosetta Stone's Tagalog course is very expensive but if you're sure you're going go through all the levels, buy the comprehensive $399 set (Filipino / Tagalog Levels 1, 2 & 3). You can save up to a hundred dollars that way.
If you find that Rosetta Stone Filipino is too big an investment, try Pimsleur Tagalog. It's an audio-only program that focuses on listening comprehension and speaking. No drills, no books.
The course we're promoting covers the basics with a $35.95 starter course, and then has an advanced $65.95 course. http://tagaloglang.com/software
