Clear, consistent four-part chapter organization helps students manage the material without being overwhelmed and makes lesson-planning easier for instructors.
Hallmarks of 'Qué tal? are its early explained grammar points followed by exercises and activities that progress from form-focused to communicative in nature, and the consistent recycling of material learned in earlier chapters.
