I've been trying to find Assimil's Using Spanish with CD or MP3 but can't find it. I don't want to have to become
fluent in French to learn Spanish to a more advanced level. I haven't started Spanish With Ease yet because I'm
currently finishing up Margarita Madrigal's Magic Key to Spanish. I'm an lesson 37 of 45.

I can't find anything reasonable on Amazon. Anybody got the scoop on Assimil? Did someone tell them folks don't
want to study Spanish anymore? ;)

You may want to:

1) enquire about if this is the Using Spanish course: http://www.amazon.com/Using-
Spanish-Assimil-With-Edition/dp/2700513649/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF 8&qid=1375504465&sr=8-
2&keywords=assimil+using+spanish

2) keep an eye on ebay

3) though not encouraged, look for a copy on the Internet (I apologise if it offends
you in any way)

I have also searched for this book when learning Spanish, and I guess your best option is
to download a copy on the Internet. Just send the money to Assimil if you are against
piracy.
The advanced level courses are pretty scarce, and I have found nothing better then
Assimil. It's a pity that Assimil advanced level series is available only for few
languages. So if your time is important to you, and you want to achieve an advanced level
quickly, get Assimil.

You have to buy the book and audio separately. I bought them both at Shoenhof's and

You can buy the book for $13.97 at Schoenhof's here.

You can buy the audio (called Espanol Perfeccionamiento) for $36.76 at Shoenhof's here.
