Spanish Vocabulary (Practice Makes Perfect) (Spanish Edition)

As a Spanish teacher for 14 years, I LOVE this series of books. They are better, in most cases, than any of the official text books we have to use. I tell my students to buy them as a support for learning all aspects of Spanish grammar and they love them. The biggest reason for their popularity is the no frills, clear, concise explanations given for every item they are teaching. They also have good practice pages and easy to find answers in the back to correct one's work. The cost is much better than what students pay for overpriced text books! I often wanted to get my school to replace the text books with all of the books in this series. They are still less expensive than one text book of lesser quality!

I really like this book very much. It is so much easier to understand than the very expensive one I bought when I attended the university. It simplifies things and really helps in learning. I also recommend that Practice Makes Perfect, Spanish Verb Tenses. second edition (green book) to go with this red one. These are inexpensive yet very helpful books. Why make things hard for yourself?

You just have to practice. That's the key, practice. This is a great reference book. Everyone borrows it and it disappears. Then I buy another.

This is the second Spanish text by Dorothy Richmond that I am using to learn Spanish. This one goes through vocabulary in a very well organized fashion. It first starts with spelling and pronounciation rules,then moving on to vocabulary organized into handy groups. The learning curve is not too steep. I felt that it is really helping me to increase my daily vocabulary. If the student knows a little Spanish first, it would helpful.

I bought this book, along with a few others in the series, to re-teach myself Spanish (even after 16 years of formal Spanish classes, living in a place I rarely use the language for 10 years has severely weakened my skills). It is simple and straight forward, very similar to Spanish materials I've used in the past. The book includes plenty of practice pages which I find helpful.

There's a ton of Spanish vocabulary here, but when compared to the non-kindle version, the regular book is much better in terms of ease of use.

I took some Spanish courses years ago and needed to increase my vocabulary and refresh myself on certain rules and verb conjugations. I'm about halfway through the book, and so far I feel like I've made a lot of progress. There are even some concepts in this book that weren't covered (or covered so well) in the courses that I took years ago. I'll be going on a trip to a Spanish-speaking country soon, and so I'm using this book (and the other one that focuses on verbs) to help me brush up and improve on what I learned long ago. I think that this book is also good for beginners because it's very well organized and with each chapter the exercises should help you become more confident in your ability to communicate.

I really like these Practice Makes Perfect series workbooks. I especially like Dorothy Richmond's volumes! I have been teaching Spanish for 29 years at the high school level and these books nicely augment the textbook. They are excellent tools for tutoring and home school as well! I highly recommend these workbooks to any educator or learner of Spanish!

This Spanish book help me a lot with the basics of Spanish for beginner. It deliver clear and comprehensive learning steps.

I love that language manual. Explanations are more than clear and you have plenty of exercices to practice what you have learn. I am learning by myself and I would recommend it to anyone who is planning to do so. I bought it with " Complete Spanish Grammar" as well.

The book Spanish Vocabulary is part of a series of excellent books to teach students of the Spanish language. Highly recommended for anyone serious about learning a new language.

Fantastic for practicing and increasing Spanish Vocabulary.

Very helpful, I am living in Spain and trying to learn rapidly the language, this is another helpful tool to go with the other other text books I have bought.
