Practice Makes Perfect: Spanish Verb Tenses
A workbook to help you master Spanish tenses
Some things just take a lot of practice to learn, and verb tenses are one of them "Practice Makes Perfect: Spanish Verb Tenses" goes beyond the scope of many other books that deal with verbs. Typical verb books often present little more than charts of conjugations with perhaps some mechanical exercises that do little

This workbook intensively presents and reviews all the tenses necessary for reading Spanish. The lessons are sequenced logically. Most of the translation exercises are English to Spanish (with a solid answer key in the back of the book), which, for this student, is much harder than the opposite, but it does provide a very firm footing in the information and instills confidence for Spanish to English translation of other materials. I used this as a supplement to a basic text and found it most ...more
This workbook is by far the best investment I've made in my journey to learn Spanish. I think it is more valuable than Rosetta Stone which I have used. If you want to make a huge stride in your Spanish, I recommend this book, especially if you are disciplined enough to sit down and work in it.

The reason people sign up for language classes, I'm convinced, is that it's so bloody hard to summon up the discipline to learn a language on one's own. Certainly, there's no barrier to keep me from learning the rudiments of Spanish -- but I've attempted to do so two or three times previously and always got sidetracked.

Great for learning Spanish verb tenses.
This is, by far, the best "How to speak spanish" book I have ever found. If you have been struggling to comprehend even the most basic spanish rules, this IS the book that did it for me. I wish the author would have gone a bit futher and included a basic lesson spanish nouns, pro-nouns, etc, and this book would absolutely perfect. Either way, I can't say enough good things about this book. If you want to learn spanish then buy this book!!
This book finally gave me what I needed to take the leap into speaking Spanish, not that I am doing as well as I should, but at least this book took me from thinking that everyone was speaking Martian to me into at least being able to understand what the conversation is at least about!
This practice makes perfect series is "punnily enough" perfect.
Quick explanations. Lots of exercises.
Believe it or not, if you go through enough of these books you will actually learn another language.

Though more of a workbook than a book, it's part of the best review series on the market. And I am a Spanish teacher.
A good workbook for learning or reviewing Spanish!
