Summary of Learn to Speak Spanish: The Complete Interactive Learning Solution (4 CD-ROMs, Version 8.0)

This advanced course provides a sensible path to speaking good Spanish. It comes with precise details of grammar and vocabulary, but also allows you to tailor the course to your own needs. Possessing some of the most recent developments in software technology, the course really does allow you to practice speaking and listening to conversations as if you were in Spain. This is absolutely essential: the harsh accent of Castilian Spanish can be a shock to those who have only read through examples on the page.

The course focuses on the essentials of communication, but also includes voice recognition and playback, so that you can hone your speech, and comes with a full dictionary, course book, and personalized plan. It is designed so that you can study at your own pace, focusing on the words and situations about which you wish to learn most. These interactive features produce a program that is at once personal and comprehensive, and makes a decent standard of Spanish well within reach. However, people intending the course for use in Latin America should note that the accents are Castilian, and thus very different to what they will find in the Americas. --Toby Green
