Spanish Reader for Beginners, Intermediate & Advanced Students

Spanish Reader for Beginners II, the second book of the series Spanish Reader for Beginners, Intermediate, and Advanced Students,  intended for Spanish language learners who desire to review Spanish Grammar structures that often require extensive work, such as regular and irregular verbs in The Past and Past Imperfect Tenses.  CostaRica SpanishOnline provides Spanish language learning materials. In this occassion, we offer you a collection of short stories created by Iris Acevedo A., written in Spanish from Latin America, mainly Central America, with the purpose of providing Spanish Language learners a source of Spanish vocabulary and Spanish grammar included in short stories. Each story, written in the format of short paragraphs,  translated from Spanish to English, allows for instant vocabulary translation, thus presenting the reader a vast range of new vocabulary that is easy to learn. One thing to keep in mind, though, as you begin to read is that Spanish is "wordy". What in English can be said in two words, we may end up saying in a whole sentence. For the purpose of teaching you the way we speak, I have used a very literal form of translation to provide you with the exact meaning of each thought, although perhaps it won't make sense to you to say it in such a way. Each volume, from Beginner I to Advanced III, provides short stories that keep you guessing until you reach the end: an unusual twist. We guarantee that you will find a unique blend of culture in Latin America, modern and traditional lifestyles, transitional phrases, grammar structures adequate for each particular level as well as entertainment and increasing practice of grammatical structures required in order to achieve full understanding and fluency in Spanish. In addition to our Spanish Readers, you may find a collection of Spanish dialogues in our series: Spanish Conversation Book for Beginners, Intermediate, and Advanced Students,  available in two formats: e.book and paperback.  For  students who are just beginning to encounter the Spanish language, we offer an elementary Spanish book: Spanish Reader for Beginners-Elementary.

I guarantee you will not feel overwhelmed by an array of structures included in higher levels of the Spanish language, for the purpose of this book is to keep you entertained as you begin to learn the language. One thing to keep in mind, though, as you begin to read is that Spanish is "wordy". What in English can be said in two words, we may end up saying in a whole sentence. For the purpose of teaching you the way we speak, I have used a very literal form of translation to provide you with the exact meaning of each thought, although perhaps it won't make sense to you to say it in such a way. In addition, I have included a few Grammar Structures of higher levels to provide you with a glimpse of what is yet to come; however, the main focus of this first book is on Grammar Structures used in Beginner Levels: Regular Verbs in the Present and PastTenses, Reflexive Verbs in the Present and Past  Tenses, Direct Object and Indirect Object Pronouns, Prepositions, as well as a wide range of sentence connectors you will want to begin to use at a beginner level. I truly hope you find Spanish Reader for Beginners useful as a learning tool. I know I have enjoyed taking on the challenge of making up a story as I take into consideration the elements of Grammar involved at each level of language learning. Iris Acevedo A
