Comments on: Not All Spanish Workbooks Are Created Equal http://blog.learnspanishstore.com/not-all-spanish-workbooks-are-created-equal/ Learn spanish blog dedicated to providing information about learn spanish products and the Warren Hardy Spanish school in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Sun, 06 Jul 2008 20:26:57 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.1 By: Rita http://blog.learnspanishstore.com/not-all-spanish-workbooks-are-created-equal/#comment-840 Rita Sat, 10 Nov 2007 08:47:22 +0000 http://blog.learnspanishstore.com/not-all-spanish-workbooks-are-created-equal/#comment-840 I'm so glad to read this article! In 2003 I started a business teaching ESL and Beginning Spanish. As part of my research, I took a pile of about 10 Spanish workbooks out into my yard, with the idea that I would jot down in a spiral notebook in what order different aspects of the language should be taught. I was surprised and frustrated to find that every single "How to Learn Spanish" book approached it in a different order -- there was no consensus at all! In my first year university course, I was taught present tense, command form, future tense, then imperfect, and as the third term was almost over, we were just getting into preterite. Off I went to Quito, with virtually no preterite! I knew something was wrong there. Also enjoyed the percentage breakdown of how much we use each tense. This is the most original information I've come across in a long time -- I'm excited to learn more about your system. I’m so glad to read this article!

They are built on the most logical method for learning Spanish that I have found. In addition, I was surprised at how much I learned in a small amount of time. My only regret is that I didn't find these books earlier. I could have saved a lot of money. I own numerous Spanish study books; however, by far my favorites are the Warren Hardy workbooks.
