Coffee Break Spanish
The parents of my students often ask me where they can brush up on their Spanish skills. I know there are a lot of Spanish language computer programs out there, and honestly, I have not checked them out. But I have checked out Coffee Break Spanish – and I love it! Coffee Break Spanish is a Spanish Language Course designed for beginners to intermediate language learners. It is composed of 15-20 minute lessons, perfect for your coffee break! You can listen to these lessons FREE at www.radiolingua.com (Look for the coffee mug in the bottom right corner.) For the serious students they do have an option to purchase an entire season along with lesson guides, word lists, and bonus materials, and you can download the lessons on to your iPod and listen to them anytime! There are 76 lessons offered online on this site for free. You can scroll back and begin at lesson 1, or check out the topics and pick up somewhere in the middle if there is something that interests you. The program is recorded in Scotland, and the hosts have lovely Scottish accents when they speak English – lots of fun to listen to. So if you are wishing you could remember more of that Spanish you learned in High School, or you are planning a warm vacation and want to make sure you can order food and drink, check out Coffee Break Spanish- I am sure you’ll love it too!
