I love how this book provides just the basics and doesn't delve into the more complex verb tenses, which are very rarely used. The presented vocabulary includes almost all useful words, although there are some rare/less useful words that could have been omitted from the book.

Overall, it is pretty good. I use it to refresh my Spanish from time to time and it works well.

Good refresher for knowing when to use which verbs and the right tense/conjugation! Some interactive exercises would’ve made this a bit more engaging and less dry.

Happy that this beginner book teaches multiple tenses and not just the present!

This is a great book as a refresher on Spanish grammar and speaking. I would not say that this is an introduction book, it is mostly like my second year of high school Spanish.

Baştan gramer öğretmiyor, bilene tekrar ve hatırlatma gibi. Cok yararlı bulduğum kelime ve kalıplar var içinde. tekrar tekrar okunur
