Michel Thomas Spanish Advanced Language Course CD
[0340938994]

This recording follows on from the Foundation (8-hour) all-audio course which took the language-learning world by storm. With no books, no memorising and no homework, Michel Thomas teaches the basic grammar of the language painlessly. Using the method he perfected over 50 years, he shares his secret with the world - and 'makes it simple' (Sunday Times). In only a matter of hours, he teaches what it takes years to cover by conventional methods, giving his students a comprehensive working knowledge of the language - all the tenses are taught and practised; the position of pronouns is made easy, and Michel spends some time on the problems of translation, instilling in the students 'an enhanced awareness of their own language'. And he does all this effortlessly, 'effectively and easily' (Daily Star).

By the end of the Advanced course Michel has covered ALL the structures and tenses of 'A' level and beyond. Grammar points and tenses only touched upon in the Foundation (8-hour) course are expanded to give the student a complete knowledge of the structure of the entire language. He points out the similarities of the vocabulary in English and Italian and gives his students the tools to guess the words they do not know, or think they do not know.

Join two students as they learn in real time. Become the third member of the class and experience the excitement of learning a language as if by magic!

This new edition has one, very significant, new feature - an additional Review CD. All the main teaching points have been lifted from the 5-hour Advanced course and are contained on this one CD. The student hears Michel teaching a specific point, there is a pause which allows time for the student to give his/her response to Michel's prompt, followed by Michel giving the correct response. If the student has struggled or given an incorrect answer, she can use the index in the accompanying booklet to locate the area of the main course where the specific language point was being taught in depth and can return to the main course to work through the relevant section again, quickly and efficiently. It can also be used very successfully by those coming back to the course after a lapse of time, either to check how much they have retained or as a quick revision tool. Only Michel's words and phrases are on the new CD, so the course is summarised succinctly and with a new, snappy pace. Finally, the new edition is repackaged, with an up-to-the minute cover treatment and robust DVD-type cases inside a rigid card slip case, to ensure that the CDs remain damage-free and are easy to access and use.

Product Reviews
Michel Thomas Advanced Spanish  
For anyone wishing to learn a language without having to trawl through endless textbooks, there is no better way to learn. I started using Michel Thomas CD's about 3 years ago and the speed that one learns is astonishing. After studying French at school for 5 years, many years ago !, I found that after completing the foundation course of 8 discs and then the advanced course of 4 discs, my grammatical knowledge of Spanish was far better than my French.
One has to be prepared to put the time in though, there is no quick fix here. Like anything, it takes time to grasp things and over time, once proficient, one moves on to the next disc and constantly reviews what one has studied before. I found that by having these recordings on my i-pod and in my car that time usually wasted when walking to and from the station etc were now utilised with short sharp bursts of learning that is actually a really good way to learn.
This year I have been doing the Open University Course "Portales" , and having thoroughly used the Michel Thomas Advanced course prior to starting and reviewing it during the year with the Michel Thomas Language Builder, I have found the course quite easy and yet I had not studied Spanish in any shape or form before.
The grammar & structure teaching made all the difference and it meant the OU course was a way of mainly increasing vocabulary and learning about culture.This made it much more fun.
I would recommend Michel Thomas to any beginner and to those that have studied before, go for the advance discs for a fantastic way of revising your grammatical structure in such an easy way. Once you have learned in this way, you will not forget it.
