Great Supplement July 17, 2007
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
This is a great supplement to add to any Spanish collection. I think it's really good for learning how Spanish is naturally spoken because if it's one thing I've learned you have to incorporate a certain amount of slang and expressions if you want to blend in with the locals or at least understand what they're talking about. The tempo is slowed down a bit for the slower tracks which is good for hearing the pronunciation better but if you have a good working knowledge of Spanish then you should be fine with listening to the normal speed.
Exactly what I've been looking for June 12, 2007

I'm really happy I bought this course. I was looking for something that would improve my conversational ability and it's exactly what I needed.
I really like how the conversations are applied so that it is very useful in everyday speech. You are learning conversation that people can use daily. These are exactly the types of conversations that anyone would want to have, and can expect to have, with other Spanish speakers anywhere, anytime and in any situation.
I really like how the subjunctive mood is used frequently (just like in real conversation) so this really helps. I love the fact that the native speakers are from different regions, which helps greatly in understanding people with different accents. I feel that this is a definite benefit.
I also like how the grammar and vocabulary are presented at the end of each conversation and that everything is explained in detail. Many times words and phrases can have different meanings when combined with other words and phrases. Understanding these is very important.
Each conversation has a fast and slow track, which has helped tremendously. Native speakers do not speak slow, and this has definitely enabled me to understand Spanish spoken at faster speeds. The more I listen the better I get.
All in all, it gave me the extra "boost" I was looking for, and this is definitely something I can keep using for a long time. I consider it to be a fantastic Spanish course for intermediate and advanced students, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking to improve their Spanish.
Excellent!!! June 6, 2007

Great product! I really learned a lot from this. If you want to learn Spanish the way it's used in conversation then I highly recommend getting this. I've been studying Spanish for several years and I think it's a great way to keep in tune with the language. It makes learning Spanish more fun than just learning from a classroom or textbook. This is especially good for people who wish to further their knowledge of conversation at a more advanced level. There are too many courses out there that promise you the world but don't deliver. Overall I was very impressed and I'm very happy with my purchase.
