Summary: Practical, Fun & Effective Guide for Learning Basic Spanish
Comment: I highly recommend this book for anyone who speaks no Spanish and wants to be able to communicate with Spanish speakers, but doesn't need to speak textbook Spanish. As someone who spoke absolutely no Spanish (besides taco and margarita), this book is the only one I found at all helpful. Instead of spending time learning how to conjugate verbs, you learn simple phrases and then simple methods of constructing sentences that will enable you to carry on a conversation. If you can conjugate "to be" and "go" you have the past, present and future tenses covered. Confused about learning formal and informal verbs, pronouns, etc? Forget it! The author wisely advises you that you'll never go wrong using the polite form, and then you can pick up the familiar form later as you converse with your spanish speaking friends. Plus, the author is a great cheerleader and confidence builder. This book is the best, and it really works!

Summary: A rare gem in the world of language learning!
Comment: I had taken some Spanish courses in high school and needed to brush up without the inconvenience of formal courses. Mr. Harvey presents the language in a very innovative and entertaining way - it was completely painless, not tedious whatsoever, and great for those who have no training in Spanish or need to brush up. You will be conversing in no time once you take his suggestion to heart to go out and practice on native speakers! I highly recommend this book - even my 10-year-old son picked up key words and phrases after only 30 minutes of listening to the tapes.

Summary: Forget books and cassettes - get the video!
Comment: This video is the best way for people with no prior knowledge of spanish to learn the language! The video allows you to copy the pronunciation better by "watching" the speaker's mouth. William Harvey is the first spanish "teacher" to speak slowly and clearly enough to understand and pick up the pronunciation. The video is very entertaining to watch. After watching it four times within two weeks, most of the vocabulary was imbedded in my brain. The video teaches you enough pronunciation tips that you can continue your spanish instruction with books and cassettes more easily. Great for any age. The vocabulary is all purpose and useful.
