I drive over 500 miles a month. And next month, I go to Spain, although I won't be driving there. Thus, quiero, deseo, y necesito aprender espanol. I've been taking a group class, as well as one-to-one, but to learn Spanish, one must diversify the methods.I recently added this CD collection to my arsenal of Spanish learning tools. First off, I highly recommend it, as it presents drills of words, verbs, and phrases. You will need to have a decent command of Spanish terminology, if not actual word/verb usage with this CD. You can get by without knowing this, but much of the content will be new. Though there is a book that accompanies the CD set---listing all of the words and phrases in order---you don't want to flip through this while driving.Like many Spanish language CDs, it has a 'host' or 'MC,' who guides the process along. His voice is very soothing, and he would make a great instructor. The words and phrases are then offered in Spanish by a male speaker and by a female speaker. I like the male speaker the best, as he speaks slowly and he e-n-u-n-c-i-a-t-e-s each word. In contrast, the female speaker talks fast and it is difficult, at times, to tease out what she is saying. While this makes it a challenge to learn, it is helpful in some respects, as what she offers is 'authentic' Spanish (i.e., fast for the novice speaker and listener).Each CD mixes up how the words/phrases are presented. They start off with simple vocabulary/concepts such as: how do you say 'I want'; how do you say 'there are;' how do you say 'I like'; how do you say 'give me the pen,' formal; how do you say 'how are you,' informal; how do you say 'go straight and then turn left;' etc.
