Lots of intermediate Spanish speakers tend to get trapped using the same vocabulary over and over again. They often only speak about subjects they know the words for and avoid anything outside of their 'comfort zone'. The problem with this is that even though they sound ok, they never really get any better.

Everything is explained in easy to understand Spanish, so you can get used to 'thinking in Spanish'.
There are well over 200 example sentences to help you understand how these words and phrases are used in everyday language.
For each topic we have listed useful television shows and YouTube channels to help you practice your new vocabulary.

How to become a fluent Spanish speaker

This book is intended for intermediate Spanish learners.

There are many things that make an excellent Spanish speaker but one of the main things is that they can speak about a lot of different topics easily. Many students at the intermediate level can speak quite well about some topics but get completely lost when someone talks about an unfamiliar subject. This book helps you to build your vocabulary in 12 very useful and common subjects.

Six ways this book will help you towards Spanish fluency

One) This book covers 12 very common topics. The vocabulary used is ‘specialised’ but is also in everyday use.

Two) If you can only speak about a few limited subjects you will not become fluent. This book helps you to break out of these limits.

Three) This book features 175 new words and phrases introduced in context (short stories or articles). This makes it both fun to learn and easy to see how they are actually used.

Four) Each new word or phrase is explained in simple Spanish. This will help you get used to thinking in Spanish rather than translating from your own language all of the time.

Five) There are example sentences for each new word or phrase. This will help you master both the meaning and the use of the word.

Six) At the end of each chapter there is an ‘Extra Practice’ section. This features TV shows and Youtube channels that will help you practice the language.

If you enjoyed this book and feel that others would too then I would be eternally grateful if you would leave a review.

Also I have another very popular book about learning Spanish (through reading) which you can find on my author page.
