This review is from: Mastering Spanish, Level 2: Book Only (Foreign Service Languages Institute Series) (Paperback)

The books and cd's for Mastering Spanish are from the Foreign Service Institute. They are public domain. There is a website from which you can download the recordings and book material. I have downloaded the recordings. However, trying to use the book and recordings online is too much of a hassle for me. I bought the book at a very reasonable price. I use the book with the recorded material that I have downloaded. The FSI Spanish Basic and programmatic courses are wonderful! They use dialogs that the student repeats to learn. The basic course then has variations of the learned material so that the student learns practical application. The programmatic course uses dialogs, too, but it spends a lot more time teaching correct pronunciation. It also teaches the language structure and verb tenses sooner than the Basic course. I really liked the basic course, until I tried the programmatic course. It is even better. I am using both courses now. Buy the books, new or used, through Amazon, and use them with the FSI audio. Excellent learning program!
