Great help with learning Spanish October 11, 2007

Deciding to try and renew and expand my college spanish has been hard, but since I work as a nurse in the hospital it is also necessary. This book has been very helpful in finding verbs and conjugating them. However you'll need more than just this book to really put things together.
 great for anglophones August 16, 2007

however I would have rather an all Spanish book on this topic since I find it easier to understand/comprehend Spanish grammar instruction, in Spanish
this book is a fine addition to my library and I recommend it
A new learning experience August 11, 2007

I have been studying Spanish for five years, for the most part independently, using CDs text books and other forms of learning tools. I had a good sense of the language and could converse in simple sentences, with a patient listener. The main reason I could not move forward at a greater pace was a lack of command of the subject matter contained in the book.
I teach English to immigrants and my current student speaks it better than most. She can tell me when I make mistakes in Spanish, but cannot provide the rules (not many of us think of grammar rules after high school). This book does that and achieves it in a fashion that I think is so "right on" that one cannot go wrong.
Thank you Ms. Richmond!
Great aid for Spanish 1 and 2 Students August 9, 2007

I purchased this book to use during the Christmas break in-between semesters of college-level Spanish 1 and 2. It proved to be an invaluable tool. I was able to complete about half the book before the second semester started. It wasn't too soon thereafter that I realized that practically all of the topics covered in my Spanish 2 class I had already learned in Dorothy Richmond's book. She presents each topic in a logical progression, going from the known to the unknown. Short explanations with examples are followed by pages of exercises (with the answers in the back of the book.) For any serious student of Spanish who wants to get a jump on the language or stay sharp over the summer in between courses, or in-between semesters, this book as well as her other two books (She has one on verbs and another on vocabulary) are highly recommended.
Good for Beginners August 6, 2007

I am through the first 7 chapters of the book and have learned a great deal. This is a great book for beginners in Spanish classes or those that are trying to learn Spanish on their own. I am part of the latter group and have found this material easy to learn and extremely helpful with the grammar rules associated with pronouns of all types. I am also working through the book on Spanish verb tenses. I am looking forward to obtaining other books and material from the Practice Makes Perfect Series.
