5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Intermediate/Advanced Review, September 1, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Spanish Verbs Skill Builder: The Conversational Verb Program (Living Language Series) (Audio Cassette)
I loved this set so much, I bought it twice. The first time it was actually stolen from my car. I was thinking I might try something else, but I ended up purchasing this set again, and I'm glad I did. I have 4+ years of Spanish instruction and can't seem to get past proficiency to the fluency level. My major problem is conjugating verbs quickly (along with vocab). This set really reviewed all the tenses, slowly and quickly to get me to conjugate quickly. It uses the vosotros form--which is new to me. It doesn't introduce a lot of new vocab, however. I wish it did, but then again the set itself never claimed that vocabulary would be their emphasis.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for review or for Beginners!, August 7, 2001

This review is from: Spanish Verbs Skill Builder: The Conversational Verb Program (Living Language Series) (Audio Cassette)
I absolutely loved this set. I've tried other cassettes before, but none I ever tried were quite what I was looking for. Most tapes I've come across were mainly focused on teaching phrases, but they did not fully explain all the different conjugations of the verbs. This set explains them in an easy way, and the lessons are good. I have had Spanish in highschool and some in college, and the primary problem I've had was remembering all the verb tenses. It gave me a wonderful review of the language. This set is also good for people who want to begin to learn Spanish. There is English on this tape, but you are still able to develop a decent amount of listening skills. However, it will not help someone build an extensive vocabulary. What it will do is teach the basic foundations of the language, which is important to learning a language fluently. If you buy a Spanish/English dictionary there really should be no problem. Anyone who is beginning or just wants to brush up their Spanish should have this set!

2.0 out of 5 stars I was spoiled by Pimsleur, December 31, 2001

This review is from: Spanish Verbs Skill Builder: The Conversational Verb Program (Living Language Series) (Audio Cassette)
After finishing Pimsleur Spanish I and Spanish II (the gold standard for language learning), I thought I would take a break and build more verb vocabulary before begining Pimsleur III. I am being generous with two stars. The main instructor on the tape is also the main Spanish speaker and is a non-native speaker with rapid, pressured speech and everything is said dramatically. The male native speaker I swear is a Hispanic Bella Lagosi, his voice has so much bass it is difficult to understand. These tapes are definiteley low budget. "Master All the Tenses and Speake Fluently" all in four tapes! I should have known better. I am now on Pimsleur III. I think Marcel Danesi needs to listen to them and see how it is done. The idea of verb vocab building is a great idea but this isn't it.
