Summaries and Customer Reviews are supplied by Amazon.com A long-time favorite of instructors desiring a four-skills approach in a briefer book, Qu tal? combines a broad variety of materials and activities, exceptionally clear grammar presentations and consistent organization. The popular four-part chapter structure helps students manage the material without being overwhelmed and makes lesson-planning easier for instructors. A major timewaster - only get this if you are forced | Customer Rating: | | If your class forces you to get this, throw away some money and do it, but don't expect any efficiency from its use. Instead, haplessly spend your time paging back and forth looking for crumbs of information. This book was obviously designed to sell, not to help anyone learn Spanish. I have to use it for a class but find myself doing all my practical learning out of other books, just to get by. This one is a time-wasting, scattered, incomplete mess. The CDs only make it worse. | Don't get this unless you are stuck buying only this. | Customer Rating: | This only gets one star, at best.
Book starts in the middle of nowhere and wanders all over the place. It's like trying to paint a house following a fly from room to room with a roller and a can of paint.
The publisher does a better job selling, and over-selling, the book and supplies than supporting (much less explaining) the CDs and Videos that can be purchased.
If you can find a simplier book, get it. This will work, but you'll have to wade through small print, "cute" articles, and silly exercises to get to the meat of the matter - learning Spanish.
I had to buy this for a continuing education class, but I have an old set of books and LPs that I really learned from to pass the course.
Any language course that "sells" you on learning "with your computer" was probably designed by people who think the computers on Star Trek really talked....
| Great for listening and writing comprehension | Customer Rating: | | I am a student that had to use this manual for a class and being able to interact with the tape for the oral excersizes and the book for written excersizes I learned the correct pronunceations and spellings for a large vocabular of words and phrases | Illustrations vague and confusing; hard to follow exercises. | Customer Rating: | | Frequently introduces new vocabulary in exercises without translating them. Awkward. |
