The Best January 25, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This book and the other book (Spanish Verb Tenses) by the same author are simply superb. It explains grammar with the clarity not known in text books or even in a class room. If you struggle with these key elements of the language, pick up these books and you will improve drastically. I found the last activity at the end of each section to be very beneficial, it is a translation activity wherein you translate a paragraph. It reinforces how to use the concepts you just learned on a whole and not just in individual simple sentences.
Not to mention, every single answer is in the back of the book, a key feature that some self learning books seem to lack!
CH loves this workbook November 24, 2006 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I'm a first year spanish student. The curriculum has been moving kind of slow so I wanted to do some independent study. I bought this book and it has been so helpful I can't believe it. If you want to understand some basic things like why is that pronoun used or how do you know what article to use for a certain situation, this book will explain it. It has advanced my study ten-fold.
Systematic, easy to use and Better with Behind the Wheel Spanish November 20, 2006 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
Practice Makes Perfect: Spanish Pronouns And Prepositions is clearly the best Spanish reference in its category. It is systematic, very easy to use, and it extremely informative, covering a wide range of Spanish pronouns and prepositions which 'dog' the novice and expert alike. A reference like this needs a practical day-to-day vocabulary and sentence building equivalent. My choice for this is Behind the Wheel Spanish 8 CD with text. Together, you will be speaking, and even reading and writing Spanish like a native.
Excellent choice ! November 13, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a really good book. I have only just started working my way through it, but I like the way that the exercises are designed in such a way, that by constant repetition, the grammar really starts sinking in without having to stop and think about. I agree that pronouns and prepositions tend to be neglected in other books yet they are among those elements of Spanish grammar that constitute the major stumbling blocks for learners. The author is to be congratulated.
My only reservation is that this is such a good book that I can't bring myself to write my answers in the spaces provided!
I recommend it as a sequel to the green book, Spanish Verb Tenses by the same author. November 5, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
It is an excellent book in the same format as the green one. The only difference is it's harder. Spanish pronouns can be very difficult. I definately recommend these two Dorothy Richmond books for the self-learner.
