Every school and Spanish language learner can benefit from the material on Mexico, Spain, Costa Rica and Argentina contained in this CDROM.

The program helps Spanish language learners by providing examples of authentic Spanish speech from four different countries.

Develop your knowledge of Spanish language and culture by listening to stories from Argentina, Costa Rica, Mexico and Spain recorded by native speakers of these different Spanish-speaking countries. Through these stories, students learn the different sounds and different cultures of the Spanish world. Students can also record their own Spanish pronunciation and compare it with the original. The conversations are illustrated by simple drawings that allow the students to concentrate on the spoken language. In addition to the audio stories, the CDROM contains comprehension questions and simple games.

The image shown here is of the introductory screen to the stories from Mexico.
