Pasos 1 Speaking and Listening Skills Practice Set: Supplementary to the Course Pack.

This book and CD pack is designed to help learners concentrate on and really improve their speaking and listening skills. Audio extracts of varying speed and difficulty have been deliberately chosen so that learners are exposed to genuine spoken Spanish from the outset and will gradually cease to feel intimidated by it. A unique feature is the use of authentic unscripted recordings at normal spoken speed in addition to slower studio recordings, allowing learners to develop confidence in their ability to understand and speak the language. The pack is ideal for exam practice and revision.

This book with CD includes:

• 2 audio CDs containing a wide variety of activities
• a 144-page book packed with short exercises and transcripts
