About this title

From the Author

This course really works and as advertised. For nearly a year now, I´ve been teaching a two-week, 20-hour course in conversational Spanish, using my book as the text for the class. The results have been overwhelming and have gone well beyond my wildest dreams for the results to be obtained using my techniques.

More than 80% of my students who have completed this course have been able to sit down and carry on a one to two hour conversation non-stop in Spanish by the end of the second week. Of the remaining 20%, about 75% of them got there by the end of one additional week. So, we´re talking about a success rate of 95% at the end of a three week period of time.

Why does it work? It works, because it is a technique that is logical, follows a natural learning progression, and one which eliminates all of the superfluous linguistic teaching of traditional language schools. It´s this superfluous teaching which too often makes learning a language so difficult.

The most astounding results have been obtained with students who have already taken a previous traditionally taught language course only to complete it and discover that they still couldn´t carry on a conversation. These students knew more grammar than I teach and knew and understood verb conjugations, but they just couldn´t put all the words together to make up intelligent and intelligible sentences.

The Language Heretic´s Super Crash Course in Spanish Conversation & Culture brings it all together in such a way that you have the confidence to talk, the skill to talk, and the tools to talk -- to just about anyone, just about anywhere, about just about anything.

I am extremely proud of this book, because it truly delivers what it promises and to much greater degree than I had ever hoped when I sat down to write it.

There is no doubt in my mind that you CAN Get By in Spanish in one to three weeks. You only have to be willing to commit about 60 hours total to the process.

If you´ve got 60 hours to spare over the next one to three weeks, you can be speaking Spanish quickly and easily, very soon. Good luck!
