This language tutorial offers an alphabet tutorial, articles presented simultaneously in Spanish and English, vocabulary games and more. Over 20,000 Spanish words are spoken and defined and the program lets you compare your pronunciations with a native speaker’s. Immersion activities are included– you may be asked to make sense of an article that is presented in Spanish. These articles are interesting, with names like Return of the Spirits, motivating students to try to figure them out. This is a solid program, but with a challenge level most suitable for the older, serious student.
