Fun Spanish

Languages are one of my interests, and I’ve been holding at intermediate in Spanish for a long time. Reviewing this was an opportunity to refresh my Spanish and even grow it.

The format is fairly typical of other language story collections I’d done recently. The language learner could use the audio only, but the best benefit is to use the audio with the accompanying PDF. The stories are presented with new vocabulary bolded in the PDF. After the story is the new vocabulary in story order, not alphabetical order. Then the learner gets summaries of the long story in Spanish first and then English, followed by a quick multiple choice review.

While I do like this and have been successful with stories for learning German, French, and Spanish, I would suggest a general change of the organization of the material. It may work better to have the summaries first before going into the long-form story. It will help set expectations and understanding. On review and study, the learner can jump around, of course.

The narrator can make or break learning materials, and I didn’t care for his accent in the first story or two. It reminded me of something very close to Castilian, which is a Spanish accent I do not like. I quickly got used to it, and it was no longer a problem. The narrator is very animated and makes the stories sound interesting.

As for the stories themselves, I found them imaginative, and some had a space theme that matched the Argentinian astronaut on the book cover. I am a scifi fan, so it was a great way to get some language learning with something I’ll enjoy instead of a typical and often boring language lesson.

A good product. Recommended.

I found a new way to continue my language learning

This is book is perfect for two things, both of which are very challenging for me with my Spanish education - listening comprehension & vocabulary training/idioms. I Couldn’t recommend it higher, finally an audio book that is useful for Spanish learners!

Great for Spanish Learners

This book is perfect for continuing your Spanish learning. The method used is natural and not forced. The repetitive approach allows you to form language habits and skills without actual memorization. The stories are concise but entertaining, and the exercises at the end are a good reinforcement of new words/phrases learned! Definitely worth the purchase!

great book,loved the stories

I read through it , the short stories were great. Even though I’m not quite used to hearing audiobooks, exceptionally in Spanish. Since I’m not at intermediate level, I still got the concept of the stories. It was well put together if I must say, the performance was smooth and the flow of the words was just amazing. I’m glad I got to read that and learn a little more Spanish.

Become more confident in Spanish!

This audiobook gives an opportunity to get comfortable listening to native Spanish speakers that have variety of accents. Use the printed transcript to follow along as you listen. The stories are narrated clearly and at a slow pace to help you hear the proper pronunciation of words. One can improve his or her vocabulary with the glossary that is provided for each story, and see how these vocabulary words are used in day-to-day scenarios. These drills will allow beginner students master the verb tenses, so that they can start using them automatically in their speech. Also, there are questions about each story at the end that will allow you to test your comprehension skills and give you the practice you need to succeed.

The vocabulary is in the back of each story .I have been endeavoring to learn Spanish for quite a while and utilizing streak cards for vocabulary which is alright yet the Interlinear thought is much better.This is a decent book to begin learning Spanish.
