Description
Guide Review - Platiquemos FSI Language Program: Basic Course Level 1The Platiquemos Language Program is designed for the student who is serious about learning the language, and those who take the time to go through its numerous exercises will be able to speak the language well. (Yes, the drills can get tedious at terms, but this course is designed to help you learn.) This course is modeled after the Foreign Service Institute Program and emphasizes verbal proficiency. The program materials suggest use as part of a course taught by a native speaker, although it has more resources than do most "do it yourself" courses. This course is more expensive than some others, but it is also far more thorough. If cost is a concern, download a portion of it from the course Web site to see what you're paying for.
