Speak English Like An American

This book provided a great adjunct for my ESL student after she became familiar with the regular grammar and verb transitions in the text we were using from her beginning lessons. It is a fun book of idioms and lingo that one is going to encounter when learning to understand other English speakers. It gives the ESL learner a real head start into making conversation in his/her real world, beyond ESL lessons.

Excellent Idiom Starter

This is an excellent book and CD to acquaint beginners with many American idioms. The way it is put together so coherently in short stories makes it simple to learn but at the same time efficient. The CD is also very well done. Even advanced students of English as a second language can find something to learn here.

A highly recommended self-teaching tool

Amy Gillett's Speak English Like An American For Native Spanish Speakers is a combination book and audio CD especially appropriate for native Spanish speakers who are familiar with the English language, yet who seek to take their fluency to new heights by mastering common English idioms. Over 300 of the most-used American English idioms and phrases are presented, complete with examples, definitions, and engaging dialogues that serve to tell an entertaining family story punctuated with amusing cartoons. A highly recommended self-teaching tool for advance native Spanish students of English as a second language, Speak English Like An American For Native Spanish Speakers is an especially appropriate and effective supplemental resource for personal, school, and community library Language Studies resource collections.

Fun way to study English

I can recommend Speak English Like an American to you. It is a very good way to learn important and useful American English idioms and expressions. I like the fact that the idioms are used in a story, then you get another example in a sentence, and then definitions in Spanish. There are good exercises also. This is a very interesting way how to study the language. I am using some of these expressions at work and people at my office are saying, "Oh Juanita, your English is improving!"

A very useful book and CD

I found this book very helpful in improving my English. I can now better understand and speak with Americans. It has especially helped me in my job. I learned some great new expressions like for example "a dime a dozen" and "rolling in dough". I recommend this book for anybody who speaks some English, but wants to improve their conversation skills. I am still listening to the CD in my car to help with my pronunciation. Also, I think the exercises in this book are very good.
