¡Bienvenidos a Spanish Para Todos Podcast!
Did you take
Spanish 101 in high school or college, but never really learned to speak?
You’ve come to
the right place. With Spanish
Para Todos (Spanish For Everyone),
you will improve your Spanish by listening to speakers talk and discuss
topics of interest to you. SPT
Podcast isn’t for complete beginners, but you don’t need much Spanish to take
advantage of it. If you barely
passed Spanish 101 or 102, you’ve got enough! Now it’s time to get more.
You’ll learn new
idioms and expressions and learn to use them the way native speakers do. No more “textbook Spanish”!
Each Spanish Para
Todos Podcast lasts 10-15 minutes, and has three parts:
1. A story or conversation,
read at a slow speed.
2. An explanation
of some of the expressions and phrases used from Part 1.
3. The same story
or conversation read at a fast speed.
The podcasts are
all recorded at a speed you can understand—clearly and
comprehensibly. This way, you’ll be able to actually
understand the Spanish you hear, and pick up the meanings of new words and
phrases.
You may not
understand everything the first time you hear it, but if you listen to it a
couple of times, you will find that your comprehension will increase
significantly.
Spanish Para
Todos Podcast is brought to you every week by the Center for Educational Development, in
Los Angeles, California. Dr.
Jeff McQuillan is the host of the podcasts. Dr. McQuillan was a university professor of applied
linguistics and education for many years, and has taught Spanish as a Second
Language at both the high school and university level.
