5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tapes!, May 3, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Standard Deviants: Advanced Spanish Video Box [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I love these tapes! I studied spanish many years ago in high school but wanted to brush up for a trip to Spain. Not only were the tapes a great refresher on the basics but I learned more spanish than I imagined - and it was fun! I'll definitely buy more of the Standard Deviants products on other subjects since I'm heading back to graduate school. Keep 'em coming.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love these tapes!, May 3, 2001

This review is from: Standard Deviants: Advanced Spanish Video Box [VHS] (VHS Tape)

These tapes helped me expand my very basic spanish in a fun, easy way. The content was accurate, the actors were fun and the information was easy to remember. I learned at my own pace in the comfort of my home. I love these tapes. I'll be sure to get more Standard Deviants products on other subjects. Now, I'm ready for my next trip to Spain.

If you are selling a Spanish video, it would help to at least use the correct grammar. The proper way of saying "these videos" is "estos videos," NOT "estes videos," which means "easts videos."
