Great way to review your Spanish!

I have an intermediate level of Spanish and really enjoyed listening to these short stories! The narrators were very clear in their pronunciation and the vocabulary used was a great review for me. I especially liked that the narrators were Latin American because that is where I learned most of my Spanish. One of the best features was that I could control the speed of the narration from my desktop. I also appreciated that the stories were short enough that they did not lose my attention, and that there were both male and female narrators to keep things from being monotonous.

Very Helpful!

This book has been very helpful I have noticed I am becoming more fluent, coming from compliments from my more fluent peers. The story is very enjoyable to listen to and the narrators are enjoyable to listen to, I feel like most audible books have very monotone speakers.

Well Written and Informative~!

The stories are delightful, well written, and beautifully narrated. The addition of a glossary, along with proper punctuation as extremely helpful~!I'd recommend it for anyone trying their hand at learning a new language. The writing style and narration are easy to follow, it's a little like having two teachers in my own home. Definitely a series worth checking out.

Great book for improving Spanish skills

This is a great book for someone who has a foundation in Spanish ALREADY. Pay close attention to the title, it says intermediate level. If you do, in fact, have that foundation you will enjoy learning new vocabulary and phrases.
You will find yourself going back and forth trying to connect phrases in the story to the glossary. While it was difficult at first, I got used to it and was able to keep up as I went through the book. I recommended writing down some of the more complicated vocabulary.
In conclusion this is a great audio book, that when used properly, will help your Spanish speaking skills. I know it help improve mine!

Great Spanish Learning

This method really helped me. I like how the reader would speak it normal speed once, say what it meant, then pronounced it again slower. That helped me easily learn to say the word/phrase with the correct pronunciation. I have never been able to understood Spanish conjugations before but from listening/learning using this method has allowed me to understand and comprehend Spanish conjunctions and pronunciations. The drills are very helpful because they show up in random order so it doesn't get repetitive and boring. I highly recommend this product.

Great for Vocabulary and Comprehension!

The stories help you understand the context and vocabulary in a real-world way. You are able to learn Spanish vocabulary, verbs, and phrases throughout the stories. You hear a female and male voice, which helps you recognize and use everyday words in a conversational tone. It can also help with pronunciation of words and knowing meaning. The stories are complex enough for intermediate learners who are looking to enhance their Spanish understanding and speaking skills. You are able to learn the skills on the go and get a better grasp of Spanish conjugation, pronunciation, and sentence structures.

Enhanced Teaching Style

This audio book is an amazing source for my Spanish learning experience! The audio book helped me greatly improve my pronunciation, tense usages, and overall understanding all while providing fun stories to exercise the language. The Spanish terms are also given randomly which help me remember them more naturally rather than traditional educational methods. The pronunciations for both the Spanish and English words are crystal clear which makes them very easy to understand. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to improve their knowledge in the Spanish language while having fun doing so.

My review

I really enjoy this project. The spanish is so perfect and clear, is such a hard language and this method really make things more easy to understand, with clear and calm narration. This can be really helpful for who ones that want to learn spanish in a more easy way.

Perfect step up from beginner-level Spanish

I like this book's approach to teaching intermediate-level Spanish. The audio lessons focus on telling stories and on repeating a minimal number of new vocabulary words, rather than on the most tedious aspects of language learning, like verb conjugations and tenses. And yet, I was surprised that when I listened to the story a second time (each lesson starts out with a story told at a moderate pace in a female voice, and ends with the story repeated at a slightly faster pace by a male voice), I was able to identify and understand the verbs, no matter what conjugation they were in. Also, unlike many other intermediate-level texts, this one didn't waste much time repeating beginner-level vocabulary I already knew, and included useful everyday, non-textbook words like headphones, or mud.

Very helpful!!

I really like this short story audiobook, it’s very easy to understand, the speaking is clear, and the English translation is very helpful, but I’d recommend this only for people with some knowledge of the Spanish language solely because not every word is translated into English, but with the words that are translated, those are good vocabulary words being taught. Overall, I really like this audiobook, it’s very helpful and easy to understand and comprehend.
