Very helpful and detailed

I have been studying Spanish for a very long time and have even lived in Spain, but I cannot consider myself an expert yet in the language because there is jargon for different jobs that I have not yet mastered. This audiobook helped me learn so much about the vocabulary and phrases used in the medical field. The narrator had such a clear voice and gave sufficient time for you to comprehend and digest the new words before moving on. I was surprised by how detailed this audiobook became. The refresher in the beginning about Spanish basics (such as colors and the alphabet) were helpful and perfect for dusting the cobwebs off, but I was blown away by how extensive its teaching goes. This audiobook is all inclusive and has just about any Spanish word or phrase one would need for just about any situation to be successful as a medical professional. I highly recommend using this audiobook as a great way to learn medical terminology and procedures in Spanish.

Definitely has an added value.

I am self taught in Spanish, and I have been living abroad between El Salvador and US for the past 7 years. Now I really wish I had gotten a hold of something like this before taking the leap of coming to Central America. I work with my brother who works as a dentist here in El Salvador. Not only did this audio book help bring me up to speed on medical jargon to help him out, but the real reason I wish I discovered this audiobook 7 years ago, is not only does it go over vocabulary and idioms, BUT it goes over what are expected ways of greeting and approaching people. This definitely add a value that not all learning a new language book have. I would definitely recommend this book.

A perfect tool for bridging the language gap

This easy to follow and comprehensive guide is the perfect tool for breaching language boundaries between patient and medical professional. As someone who is constantly on-the-go, this guide was helpful, as it can be listened to from anywhere. The pace is flawless, and it gives the listener enough time to process the words or phrases presented in English and Spanish, or even to repeat them out loud. What's more, the narrator, Jessica Del Cid, very clearly enunciates in both languages, leaving very little room for confusion. Having grown up in a multilingual community, I believe this guide would have been the ideal starting point for medical professionals in my area, especially considering the Spanish language review that proceeded the medical language in Chapter One. As our world becomes more culturally connected, this ebook by My Daily Spanish could bring our communities together to bridge the language and cultural gaps that exist today.

Great product for language learners

When learning a language, a good method is comparing the new language with the target language. If you are an English speaker, this audiobook will help you a lot and you will end up understanding the grammar structures, phrases and more in Spanish, as this audiobook makes a comparison between both languages.
The explanations are clear and easy to follow. So, even when you are not talking to a tutor in real life, you will be able to solve your doubts by just keep listening to the audiobook.
The audiobook goes through everything: from the basic to a level a little bit more advanced than beginner. The information here is really useful and it will definitely make you start speaking Spanish. It even focuses on pronunciation which is an important thing that not many people take into account.
Spanish is not an easy language to learn but this audiobook makes it easier!

Amazing Practical Guide!

Great tool for physicians w/Hispanic population! I’d recommend this for those learning the language for medical purposes.

Useful book for language learning!

Coming from someone who is studying the Spanish language as well as being a student in nursing school, I found this audiobook extremely helpful. The points were easy to follow and it gave a wide variety of useful vocabulary, phrases, and even commands. Another thing I loved was the words and phrases were repeated for better understanding.

Exactly what I needed

I'm not very picky, and all I can say is this book absolutely got the job done when I was trying to learn more Spanish to be more effective in my new work location. Consistently clear and concise explanations. Great refresher on top of my high school curriculum!

WOW

I have taken 6+ years of Spanish courses from high school through college. Spanish is such a beautiful language, but I always had a hard time getting the sound of words correctly. This audiobook is special – the narrator allows the listener to sound out the words/phrases to along with her, which is very helpful. It is a great refresher tool for individuals that haven’t studied the Spanish language in a while or are learning for the first time. I am not in the medical field, but I do have a few friends and family members that are and I will definitely be recommending this audiobook to them.

Useful Study Guide

One of the perks of this audiobook is that it is readily available anywhere you go and you can also download a PDF to practice speaking with a visual. The instructor is repetitive and speaks slowly, so you can really take the time and master your pronunciation. Additionally this audiobook is targeted for a wide range of Spanish levels, so even if you haven't studied since high school, or ever, you can still gain enough language skills to communicate with your patients. The book has a wide array of medical vocabulary, and I easily have learned much more new sentences and phrases. Highly recommended!

Great!

This is a great audiobook. It is very easy to follow. The narrator does a wonderful job and makes it easy for the listener to understand what she is saying and she has a captivating voice to keep listeners interested. I really like this audiobook because it isn’t simple just spewing out words for you to learn but it is also giving you cultural insight of different customs and norms. Culture is a huge part that goes along with language. This audiobook was setup perfectly to get words and phrases memorized. I highly recommend trying this out!
