Useful for Conversation Class/tutoring

I use this as the main text in a small group Spanish Conversation Class. There are six high school aged students who have had between two and three years of instruction, and one adult who actually lived in South America, but wants an update on her language skills. The pros are: Interesting conversation and easy to follow dialogues and grammar/phrase points in each chapter. Nice small size, and not overwhelming. The cons: No vocabulary list for each chapter, so the students are a little all over the map for keeping track of the vocabulary their adding to their repertoire, and this makes "quizzes" a little more difficult. Overall, the students enjoy the lay out. It is of course an advanced book, so for an introduction or for younger students, Flip Flop Spanish is good, which comes with a CD. (I do wish it came WITH CD's, not separately, but that's a VERY small flaw.)

This is a good supplement to an overall Spanish study.

I really like this course. I have studied quite a bit of Spanish, but I am weak in listening skills, and that is where this course helped me. It is not for beginners, but neither is it "too advanced". A good supplement to a comprehensive course of study in Spanish. It is set in Spain, and my interest is mostly Mexico and Central America, but no big problem.
