About
91´«Ã½
For middle school or home use. With high-quality video content recorded in Mexico City using native speakers, this self-directed program immerses beginners in the language through listening, speaking, and reading activities. The study planner allows multiple users to determine pace and track progress. Special features include ability to listen to scenes at two speeds (conversational and learning), capability of manipulating video to see individual sentences, multiple approaches to vocabulary development, available Spanish captioning or English translation as desired, and cultural notes to enhance video segments. Most impressive are the truly interactive speaking activities, which allow the learner to converse with on-screen characters using the enclosed microphone headset.
