Pimsleur's Spanish teaches an educated Latin American Spanish, with speakers from Colombia and Argentina in levels I-III, and from Mexico in level IV.Can learning another language be as easy as speaking your own? Yes with Pimsleur its that easy. Learn on your own time, at your own pace, and wherever you choose.Spanish Phase 2 includes 15 hours of spoken language practice and one additional hour of reading instruction, and is designed to be used after completing Phase 1.In the first 10 lessons of Phase 2, you begin to use the past tense. Structures become more complex and informal speech is introduced. Conversations become fuller, and learners are able to discuss business and social activities, manage shopping situations, and express their interests. As you progress, vocabulary is expanded and fluency increases.The next 10 lessons of Phase 2 allow you to further combine and build upon known elements, and produce longer and more complex sentences. You learn to bargain with shopkeepers, deal with business situations, get and give medical information, and discuss the weather.In the final 10 lessons of Phase 2, youve doubled your vocabulary and have several hundred structures to draw upon. Youll gain experience asking for assistance, finding a location that is some distance away, and using relative structures faster, slower, etc. Sports and leisure activities are explored, as well as shopping, changing money, and future travel plans. By the end of Phase 2, youre speaking at a midintermediate level with nearnative pronunciation, and you are comfortable meeting most social demands and limited job requirements.Reading Lessons are included at the end of Unit 30. These lessons, which total about one hour, are designed to give you practice reading Spanish, and to provide you with some insight into Spanish culture with proverbs, common expressions, and a broad look at things youll see when visiting a Spanishspeaking country. A Reading Booklet to be used with the audio lessons is also included in PDF format.
