5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Workbook for Serious Study and Review, July 28, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Spanish Grammar (4th edition) (Paperback)

This workbook is for serious review, but definitely not for casual or superficial reading. With virtually zero Spanish background I used it as a supplement to a 1:1 language immersion course prior to starting an expat assignment in South America. I've been on assignment for a year and continue to use it to ensure that my grammar is correct and to help me master additional aspects of the language. It has extensive coverage of grammar principles, numerous exercises to reinforce learning, and includes answers in the back, making it an excellent tool for independent study. My wife has tried various other methods (books, tapes, tutors) and has just asked me to order a fresh, unmarked copy for her.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buen repaso de la gramática española, March 2, 2003

This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Spanish Grammar (4th edition) (Paperback)

This workbook is stellar if you are looking for a good review of Spanish grammar at a high Intermediate/ Advanced level. The books cover all the essentials of Spanish grammar and if mastered, one can speak concise Spanish with optimum grammar control. This book was designed to emphasize the fundamentals. Of course, Spanish grammar goes way beyond the scope of this workbook however, it's true to it's objective and it does clarify key grammar points that can enhance one's writing and speaking abilities. I believe workbook is a great supplementary study aid to classroom instruction. It has ample practice exercises and an answer key which is vital when learning a language. The workbook is a worthy purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Review Book, December 18, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Schaum's Outline of Spanish Grammar (Schaum's Outline Series) (Paperback)

This is the best book I have found for review of the basics -- especially those who may have studied Spanish in school but not used it since. The grammatical rules and exercises are very effective. I recommend this book as an excellent way of recapturing once-forgotten language skills.
