Spanish Reader for Beginners Elementary 1, 2 & 3 Series
()
About this series
The second book Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary 2 takes basic Spanish Grammar Structures, such as Regular Verbs, Reflexive Verbs, Stem-change Verbs, and irregular verbs in the Past Tense, placing them in the context of scenarios that help you learn them as you enjoy reading short paragraphs fully translated from Spanish to English. You will find a Reading & Comprehension Exercise after each chapter. Moreover, in this second book I have introduced Direct and Indirect Object Pronouns, which at times can prove to be quite daunting to master unless provided with extensive practice once your teacher has introduced you to this subject. Although each paragraph in Spanish in this book includes a second paragraph in English, I prefer to encourage students to understand the differences and uses of certain Grammatical Structures and verbs through paragraphs providing examples and short exercises that trigger intuitive learning. However, because this is a Basic Spanish Reader, I have provided literal Spanish to English translation (too literal at times) for all paragraphs in order for the reader to comprehend sentence structure in Spanish, and thus acquiring greater understanding regarding the way we speak Spanish in Latin America.We have intended to use four different colors to highlight the structures in the text; however, we are afraid that this feature will only be available in the print format. As you begin to learn Spanish as a Foreign Language, the various uses of the verbs Ser and Estar may seem like quite challenging task; nevertheless, through the unique teaching style of CostaRica SpanishOnline School, the learner is able to comprehend these structures in a natural manner. You will find yourself gladly leaving behind exhausting exercises and finding your own way of learning through our more creative approach to learning a foreign language. There is absolutely no need to rely on extensive drilling exercises.
You will find extended practice of Ser and Estar in the first book, Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary. We highly suggest, at the beginner level of this Spanish course, starting out with Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary, and Spanish Reader for Beginners Elementary 2 prior to purchasing Spanish Reader for Beginners.
I hope you find these short paragraphs, examples and exercises helpful.

Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary takes basic Spanish Grammar Structures and places them in scenarios where these structures are easy to understand. Although this book is fully translated from Spanish to English, we encourage students to understand the nuances and uses of certain Grammatical Structures, as well as verbs, found throughout each and every paragraph, by providing examples and short exercises that trigger intuitive learning. However, because this is a Basic Spanish Reader, I have provided literal Spanish to English translation of all paragraphs in order for the reader to comprehend sentence structure in Spanish thus acquiring greater understanding regarding the way we speak Spanish in Latin America; particulary, in Central America. In the beginning, as you start out learning Spanish as a Foreign Language, the various uses of the verbs Ser and Estar may seem quite challenging; nevertheless, through the unique teaching style of CostaRica SpanishOnline Language School, the learner is able to comprehend these structures in a way that he or she feels it is their own ability to learn a Foreign Language that is performing the task. We highly suggest, at the beginner level of course, starting out with the series of three books; Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary, previous to purchasing Spanish Reader for Beginners, the first book of the series; Spanish Reader for Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced Students. I hope you find these short paragraphs, examples and exercises as helpful as they are intended to be. Iris Acevedo A. Author/Founder I

Iris Acevedo A. was born in Costa Rica in 1959. She lived and grew up in Ohio, Oklahoma and Kansas, returning to Costa Rica in 1976. Iris is the founder of CostaRica SpanishOnline, the first online Spanish school in Costa Rica to provide independent learners with live One-On-One Spanish Immersion Courses via Skype. In 2017, we have branched out and are now offering English Conversation Skills courses to Latina American learners residing in Costa Rica and abroad. During her over 30 years' experience teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language to learners from all over the world who have visited Costa Rica in order to learn Spanish, she took a keen interest in independent learners: an emerging group of students who have studied English and Spanish on their own, and somewhere along the process seek a Spanish language teacher to guide them. This is her field of expertise. Iris has written several articles on Spanish Language Tips and Top Questions for Ezine.com, such as The Spanish Subjunctive and The Future Tense, The Use of The Spanish Pronouns "Vos, Tú and Usted", among others. Iris has put together 3 series of Spanish Readers : -Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary-3 books (Audio Coming Soon) -Spanish Reader for Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced Students-8 books -Spanish Conversation Books-4 books (Audio Coming Soon) All books contain a combination of Spanish Grammar structure and phrases lying within a narrative style with an unusual twist that keeps the independent student engaged and entertained while achieving a higher level of knowledge and conversation skills. Please note that our Readers and Conversation Books are not Grammar Books or Travel Guides. The only books of our collection that contain Grammar exercises are: Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary, Elementary II, and Elementary III, with a complete translation from Spanish to English for those students who are just beginning to make their first or second attempt to learn the language on their own.
