When I set out to design my Spanish courses, my main aim
was to set them apart from every other Spanish course.
The way I've done that is to base these courses around
stories. In fact, in each case, the course syllabus
itself emerges from the stories.
Let me explain...
Most Spanish courses are structured by taking a bunch of
grammar rules, putting them together in a certain order,
then teaching them to you one-by-one in a series of
lessons. This is dull, and ineffective. In this course,
we do things differently. In StoryLearning courses, you
learn through stories instead! This means you focus on
relaxing, reading, and enjoying the plot of the story.
The 'serious study' happens another way!
Rather than teaching you through a process of grammar
rules, followed by tests, here's what I do instead.
First, I make sure you see the grammar being used
naturally in the story itself. This way, you get to
learn how it works in a natural way. Second, you
discover the rules by yourself... with a little help
from me! Story first. Rules later. This makes learning
much more effective.
This means you get to enjoy learning Spanish first and
foremost, rather than get bogged down in technicalities
from the start. (Yes... it's fun!)
Doesn't that sound more exciting than your last
textbook?
At every stage of theses course, you’ll be immersed in
real Spanish - both written stories and the accompanying
audiobooks. This means that by the time you finish the
courses in this bundle, not only will you have read
dozens of short stories in Spanish, but you’ll have a
large vocabulary, so you can express yourself fully in
conversation. You will also have had many hours of
listening practice, so that following spoken Spanish
will be effortless.
