I will look into the Living Language material in the near future, after I run through Michel Thomas. I like the
Living Language material generally, and I have seen the Ultimate Spanish Advanced materials locally, but not
yet the Basic-Intermediate.


Try
here. The
travel version didn't
get a very good review from the previous borrower, I notice. And then there's the All Audio
version for your
commutes.

Buena suerte, from your friendly not-so-local librarian....

¡Muchas gracias, songlines!   I am going to scoop up the available audio version,
as I have a certain amount of available time while commuting that is best for audio-
based material rather than text-based and I am hoping to zoom through my current Michel
Thomas by the end of next weekend.

Total study time: 22:30

Michel Thomas, Discs 4 and 5

Spanish.about.com - further study and Anki'ing of unit 2

Partly watched a fairly eccentric film from either Argentina or Uruguay. The last I
remember was Francesca Fiore saying, "Bruno Ponce Jones, don't be eat by
alligator
".   Luckily, there is a detailed review available which fills in some of
the parts I missed.

"Say goodbye to your American lover"

BBC, Mi vida loca - episode 4

because of the little time you have i would suggest that you concentrate on FSI.
it's the most effective way of truly implementing the subject.

Thanks talkl, and congratulations on achieving your goal - it is always good to hear of
success stories from time to time.

I am liking the FSI material well enough for sure, but I am still solidly a fan of
Michel Thomas material, which offers an awesome return on one's time investment.
