Product Description
Revised and updated with new phrases and vocabulary, new questions and answers, and new tables presenting basic English verbs, this favorite language-learning program is for Latinos in the United States and Canada who need to develop a practical, working use of spoken English, and who want to learn quickly and informally. Author William Harvey bypasses the dull rules of grammar and takes the practical route by presenting a series of informal conversations by speakers who converse in normal idiomatic American English. Emphasis is placed on correct pronunciation, and many helpful tips are offered, including short-cuts to clear spoken English expression and comprehension. Amusing cartoon-style illustrations help to convey understanding of English.

 USEFUL!!! March 2, 2008
I have given this book as a gift to several people to whom English was not their first language - each thanked me and told me later it had helped them. The addition of CDs was nice as it allowed them to actually hear the words spoken and to practice more accurately. I hope to continue giving this book as a gift when needed.

I've been teaching English to Latinos for a few years. Usually, I use other materials for a one on one class, but I think this book is good to study alone. Most of it is written in Spanish. It doesn't seem to be boring. It is light hearted and a little funny.
I'm not sure I'm the best one to review it though, since I'm a native English speaker. The opinion that would matter more than mine would be from someone who has used the materials to learn English as an adult.
 Very "pocho" book, December 28, 2007

I bought this as a gift for a monolingual Spanish pastor in SE Nicaragua. Even though I was the first English speaking person to visit him in his poblado since he has lived there, he feels compelled to learn English so he may tell more people about his country.
Much better than a generic ESL book. September 27, 2007

I teach English to adult Latinos, and the generic ESL text (i.e., a book not designed for speakers of a specific foreign language) we were using earlier was just awful. My students really love using this book, and I can absolutely notice a marked improvement in their English. One caveat is that if you are an ESL tutor or teacher, you need to have a good knowledge of Spanish in order to make proper use of this text.
