By: John DePonte Visitors to http://smashwords.com/ While there are many books on the market for teaching English and Spanish, John DePonte presents a unique course that takes the student to the level of fluent speaker through the same process we employ in the acquisition of our first language. The student need only practice the Exchanges in the same way an actor practices the lines of a role in a play or movie. The author clearly explains how to do this in three simple steps. The Exchanges include all the sentence structures commonly used in the English language. These structures are then translated into idiomatic Spanish. Word-for-word English translations of the Spanish sentences remove the need to consult a glossary or dictionary, thereby accelerating the learning process.
