Book Overview
The updated 7th edition of this combination textbook and workbook is designed as an introduction to Spanish for classroom use. The emphasis is on oral proficiency--conversational speaking and listening comprehension--but the authors also present detailed instruction in the fundamentals of Spanish grammar, vocabulary, reading comprehension, and writing in Spanish. The book is filled with exercises and answers, true-to-life dialogues, humorous cartoons, illustrations of Hispanic art, and photos that capture the flavor of Spanish culture in Spain and Latin America. In this new edition, the lessons have been enriched with subtopics to enhance conversational speech. Also new with this edition are four compact discs that have been updated in content, and which replace the previously available tape cassettes, This audio component supplements the book, providing valuable instruction in listening comprehension and correct pronunciation of spoken Spanish. A teacher's manual is also available.

This is one of the books that we use with our students. It is simple and uncluttered, and provides ample opportunity for homework or self-study.
Very good book and CD
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I personally like both the book and the CD very much. I bought the book only first. Then I found it was very interesting with its stories in each lesson, combined with graded vocabulary and grammar. Those features encouraged me to put more time on studying Spanish. I felt that I need the CD to listen while driving, so I bought a book and CD package lately. English is my second language, and I considered Spanish to be my third language. Self studying with this book & CD is not difficult to me. I made a lot of progress in just a couple of months. The CD and the book actually shared 50/50% in helping me to study Spanish.
Great Classroom Textbook!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is a great textbook for classroom use. I use this book for teaching small adult classes and have found it to be very helpful. This new edition has the added benefit of having the teacher's manual included. !!!THIS TEXTBOOK SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR TEACHING YOURSELF!!! This book is designed for someone who has a firm grasp on the language and is either going to teach, be in an insructed class, or is needing a basic review. If you are looking for a book that is suited for self-instruction, then I recommend "Spanish the Easy Way" (ISBN: 0764119745) by the same publisher. This is essentially the same book but it is presented in a simpler, easier to understand method. This book deserves 6 stars!!
comprehensive and fun

I am not a disciplined person and find it difficult to buckle down and study. With this book, I found myself studying and completing the lessons on my own on a regular basis. The lessons are entertaining and fun too!
Fun to learn Spanish
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
As a Spanish teacher I have used this book to teach Spanish to adults. For those with no prior Spanish it can be challenging, but with guidance it can be quite fun and interesting. I especially like its format, with each unit beginning with a short story that contains the lesson's vocabulary and grammatical forms. The story is followed by several pages of a variety of exercises that can be written in the book, and grammar explanations. Each unit is packed with new vocabulary, which takes the learner quite beyond travel phrase books. This is a nice, fat book that really gives the truly motivated a lot to learn. The monotony of typical practice books is broken up with fun illustrations and two colors of ink for the text. For anyone studying without a teacher, I'd recommend contacting the publisher for a teacher's manual in order to obtain the answers to the exercises and check your work.
