Learn to communicate effectively while traveling in just 5 hours!

Have you always wanted to learn Spanish but never found the time or the right teacher? Do you want to explore your travel destination on your own but are concerned because you don't know Spanish? Did you study Spanish in school but find yourself unable to construct even simple sentences in Spanish?

This book is for travelers 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 learn. 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, keeping the learning fun and exciting!

Any additional comments?

The interactive lessons really captured my attention and the narrator vastly helped my language skills by teaching me the communication basics and giving me the 'tricks' of the language.I have just one request - please write language courses for French and Italian as well. I would love to be able to learn those languages in this same method.

100% Satisfied

Where does Spanish for the Busy Traveler rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Definetly Recommended. Its amazing and you should definetly get it. I was a little hesitant but it was amazing.

Wow! This really works!

I actually bought this book more than a year ago and just never got around to actually listen to it. I just decided to pick it up again because I really do want to know Spanish. I found myself subconsciously uttering all the Spanish words when prompted to translate English words. while this book is not the comprehensive Spanish learning guide, it doesn't profess to be. I walked away from this book being conversational in Spanish. I'm actually looking forward to listening to it again to perfect my gained knowledge.

Good for travelers

Would you listen to Spanish for the Busy Traveler again? Why?

In genera, this book is a good reference for those traveling to a Spanish speaking countries. Also for those studying Spanish may found it useful. Still there were three things that I didn't like about this audio:

1- The narrator's voice was loud and kind of sharp.

2- It focuses on Latin Spanish without any mentioning of Spain Spanish.

3- Some times, it waste the time by associating some vocabulary words with an English words or some other thins, which I found unnecessary.

Overall, I cant say I didn't benefited from spending money and time on this audio, as a mater of fact I highly recommend listening to as much as you can on these audios in order to enhance your Spanish.

Any additional comments?

I spent a week in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico and this book along with Power Spanish was really helpful. I recommend this book by itself if you are short on time and need the basics fast for traveling to a Spanish Speaking country. I regret that I did not get this audible sooner in my journey. After mastering this audible book, I recommend wlingua and/or babbel language programs as well as the Power Spanish audible books.
