Easy Spanish Step-By-Step

Good product.

Excellent book for beginners to learn Spanish. I'm using it with Duolingo app and progress is very smooth. One advice is that you should have a spanish english dictionary app to fully utilise the book. Meanings are given but not for all of them. It's a self learning book, so get a pen and notebook because there are lots of exercises. Happy learning.

This book helped me a lot Learning spanish as a begineer, happy with the purchase 😇😇😇

This is a very good book.....a must buy for beginners. I have only read this book, and I have made a good progress in spanish, when I didn't know anything in spanish.

The book arrived next day and was in perfect condition.

I actually bought this book in 2016, and for whatever mistaken reason I didn't start working through it until today. Since 2016 I've managed to learn, completely on my own, a fair amount of Spanish from a huge range of resources. However, with all the reading, vocabulary building, and even several trips to Spanish-speaking countries, I've been frustrated by my relative lack of progress in (a) speaking Spanish spontaneously or (b) understanding the everyday Spanish spoken by natives. That means that when I run into someone who knows some English, I can usually limp my way through. But when I run into someone who knows NO English, it is pretty nearly always a complete fail to communicate.I've been trying to figure out, for a while now, what is missing and what I can do about it. One of my challenges is I don't even know English grammar in a formal sense. Another issue has been that the thousands of words of Spanish I've memorized, have not been presented – and exercised – in a sufficiently methodical and interesting way. Lack of auditory and spoke practice has been another issue. Another has been little practice in sentence construction, because material is either too trivial or too complicated.Through time I've attempted to address many of these impediments. However, I haven't found a single, simple, practical, ENGAGING book to tie everything together . . . Until now. This book is just short of 300 pages, and it somehow manages to find that middle ground of teaching complete intermediate Spanish, without being overwhelming.How does it do this? Vocabulary words are CAREFULLY chosen and presented to fit together into sentences to cover a huge range of most-common situations. For example, in an early chapter this book presents numbers, times of day, months, seasons, etc. and ties all these things together. Another thing I noticed is that the words which are covered are generally well-balanced, using things such as opposites, so they are learned more memorably and able to be interchanged within sentences. It's a small thing - which most books neglect - which makes the material flow really well.A lot of essential "glue" words and syntax is presented and EXPLAINED in a smooth, complete way I've not seen before. An example of this is the presentation of que, tan, and como on pages 113-1115. These words are ESSENTIAL and a large part of natural speech, but I've never been able to understand them well enough, in context, to feel comfortable using them in my own phrasing.I'm going to leave my review off here, because I broke away after getting to page 120 to write this recommendation. This is NOT a “beginner” book. But it is also not a particularly advanced nor complicated book. That is quite a balancing act, which most Spanish books fail at rather miserably. So what is it? Well, I suspect (but will never know) it is the sort of book a smart beginner would benefit immensely from getting early on and reading, and reviewing, at sensible intervals. I have a funny feeling that if I had found and read this book 6 years ago I would have made considerably more progress, more naturally, than I otherwise made cramming vocabulary and syntax in small, disjointed chunks.

Great book, but it is more focused on the Spanish spoken in Latin America.

First i found this book on Audible which i enjoy listening to. I brought the book and there is also a free app for the phone or computer. I have tried other courses and this is by far the best course i have used to learn another language.
