A fine language acquisition tool!
Thank you for the speedy delivery of this Spanish book. It is serving as a great review and instructional aid. It fills in some of the Duolingo gaps and allows opportunities for writing in Spanish. Muchas gracias.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

For everyone
I've read multiple Spanish learning books and most of them have no order. This book is better, in my opinion, because it guides the learner in a systematic way that makes each chapter flow. It breaks down the language into digestible bites so that anyone can understand.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great book; helps you work hard and actually learn Spanish.
For serious students of Spanish, this is a highly competent and honest presentation of the basics. The author pulls no punches. She tells you straight out that to learn Spanish you need to learn and practice grammar rules (including memorizing the most common irregular verbs), use vocabulary, view and duplicate word order practices and sentence syntax. She helps you with this every step along the way. This approach works far better than the more common one of mostly learning vocabulary and ready- made phrases. Students who take the tune to learn and practice all the material in this book and the more advanced one by the same author will be ready to move on with confidence and understanding to Spanish instruction books at the true intermediate level.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

very helpful book
I'm over 60 years old and decided to try learning Spanish. I tried an online program from the library but had trouble making much progress. Then I started a CD program that was very helpful, providing much vocabulary. I've made hundreds of flashcards to learn it, and it lets me hear and practice pronunciation. I've made slow progress, and I'm not quite through it. Recently I decided to take a Spanish class at a local community college, but a Hispanic friend convinced me I could do the learning on my own, so I looked for some kind of textbook online. I look at the negative reviews to steer me away from books, but the reviews for Easy Spanish Step-by-Step convinced me it was worth a try. It is! it answers lots of questions I'd wondered about while using the CD program, and it provides a systematic way to tackle the language. I'm able to sail through it for now because of learning so much from the CD program, but the book also is helping me quickly add to my vocabulary. I'm in chapter 2 now, and getting lots of practice on ser and estar, and before I finish chapter 2 it has me read a couple paragraphs to practice reading comprehension. My previous study only dealt with present tense, but this book has chapters for several tenses, reflexive verbs, direct and indirect objects, and on and on. . . . I am now studying an hour a day, excited by how comprehensive this book is for a first year of learning. I hope to have learned the book well (15 chapters) within six months, although I will need to supplement it with listening and speaking practice somewhere else. After trying a few other methods, I've found a book that helps me help me stick with Spanish and learn enough to probably get around with my beginning Spanish fairly quickly. I seem to need an organized book. Online or CD study isn’t enough to help me stick with learning consistently. When I get through this one, I'll look for another book, but this book is one of the best investments I’ve ever made.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent for basics...
This book is great for those wanting to learn traditional Spanish grammar as well as integrate it into comprehensive reading passages. It is very logical, simple and teaches Spanish so that you can learn to ultimately read and speak it correctly. I have seen many examples of how Spanish is taught in schools today and it is often disjointed and mixes in advanced concepts with the basics, thus leaving students confused and disinterested. This book gives you the building blocks - with exercises, appropriate vocabulary - to then enable you to advance to become a more fluent Spanish student. I am bilingual in speaking, reading and writing Spanish - thought not a native - and this is the type of course I took when I was younger in order to get to where I am today with my Spanish proficiency.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Easy Spanish
I am trying to learn Spanish on my own, so I like the layout of the chapters and the abundance of exercises (with answer key in the back). The readings are also helpful. There is no glossary, so I end up using a translator app along with it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Engaging and Excellent
It is really a great book. It comes with different exercises and has an answer key in the back of the book. The book had two pages that were written in it but it came in suitable to still use. It looked like a brand new purchased book! Would recommend getting.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
