Publisher's summary

Learn to communicate effectively with your Spanish speaking patients and their families in just five hours!

Have you always wanted to learn Spanish but never found the time or the right teacher? Are you having trouble communicating with your Spanish speaking patients? Did you study Spanish in school, including medical school, but find yourself unable to construct even simple sentences in Spanish?

This book is for doctors, nurses, emergency medical personnel, and all medical professionals in need of a Spanish beginners or refresher course. Due to our unique method of teaching, you will be amazed at how much Spanish you will learn and retain in just five hours!

What makes this Spanish course special?

Our breakthrough method allows you to retain most if not all of what you learn and immediately put it to use. The key is interactivity: instead of making you repeat words and sentences, you are encouraged to think and apply what you learned. Using the words and concepts you learn throughout the course, you will build Spanish sentences and translate Spanish sentences into English right from the start. The course also makes use of the many similarities between English and Spanish, so you can associate new Spanish words with English words you already know.

You'll learn relevant words and sentences that you can put to use immediately. This will allow you to reinforce what you've learned through real life practice and motivate you to complete the course.

This course only takes about five hours to complete. Many people buy expensive Spanish courses and never find the time to complete the course. But you should be able to find five hours. Even if you only study for half an hour each day, you'll be done in a little more than a week!

Learning should be fun and rewarding. It is hard to describe the pleasure you experience when you manage to construct complete sentences in Spanish after just half an hour into the course. In addition, the course is peppered with quotes and anecdotes, to help keep the learning fun and exciting.

5hour learning

I liked this, it helped me learn how to pronounce and say the words correctly

great learning tool

I work at a hospital, so I listened to


it as I was driving to work and then practiced at work

great introduction course to Medical Spanish

great introduction to medical Spanish, plan to repeat and already purchsaed course 2 and 3

Irritating pseudo humor sacrifices clarity

All the stupid jokes by the narrator reduced my ability to absorb the material and only served as a distraction from learning

It’s The Beeeeest!

i have been learning Spanish every week for the past 2 years. This is the best thing I have found for sentence structure and so much more! Even for first time beginners it is great. For vocabulary the “Drops” app is my personal favorite ^_^ Happy learning!

Worth the time!

I enjoyed this book. Always wanted to improve my conversational Spanish when working as a physical therapist. Ironically I'm using my Spanish most with my coworkers at my facility as I only have a few Spanish-speaking residents here. The narrator was fantastic with really great diction and toward the end of the book even before she would say the Spanish word, I already knew how she was going to say it with proper accent and emphasis.

Great car listening

The layout is easy to understand and accessible. I found myself picking it up easily.

Highly recommended!

Very nice and useful material! As a nurse and a beginner Spanish leaner, highly recommended.

Perfect learning tool for Nurses!

As one of countless nurses who can muddle reading Spanish but have never finished a course tried, and having many Spanish speaking or ESL patients I can easily testify that this is the most specifically useful that I have ever seen. The teaching method is tailored to those of us who are lacking in free time but not desire to learn. We all know that ESL diminishes under stress, so being able to ask and/or instruct a patient in their own tongue is most desirable. The construction of the lessons is logical and applied, making it easy to assimilate.
The audio performer has a pleasant voice with clear pronunciation and diction which leaves no room for interpretational error. Hearing is believing.
I was fortunate to have received this audiobook as a gift

Super!

Practical and easy to follow with frequent challenges to recall what you are learning— the best way to learn!
