Hola
Sometimes Spanish lessons just seem to complicated
things, don’t you agree?
When things are complicated, few people really benefit,
even if a lot of people try.
A well know example of this was “A Brief History of Time”.
That book was a New York Times best-seller for over a year.
It was called one of the most-purchased/least-read books […]
Buenos dias amigos
I have a 3 new audio recordings to share with you today.
These lessons have been on the back burner for almost
two years. They are from a new extended audio series we are
creating for Shortcut to Spanish. I wrote these lessons
just after I finished the original Shortcut to Spanish.
That was […]

Giving and getting feedback - which Spanish courses work best?
0 Comments Published January 20th, 2008 in Marcus SantamariaHola
It’s worth the trouble to research and find out
which Spanish courses work for you, after all…
If you choose the wrong course, Spanish is
nothing but drudgery. Worse, you’ll probably
quit like 95% of the people who try to learn
a new language.
Choose the right course and everything changes.
You learn fast and you enjoy […]
Hola Amigos
I don“t know about you but, I always found
the Spanish pronunciation exercises that
show you how to hold your mouth and
tongue to produce a sound, incredibly dull.
Even worse …
The listen and repeat like a parrot lessons,
for me they were just unbearable.
So, I like to create more interesting
ways for […]
Staying fresh and enthusiastic for Spanish

Sometimes I miss being a learner at Spanish. I guess
what I miss the most is the excitement of making
big advances with Spanish.
It feels great when you discover something new
that lifts you to a new level. It feels even better
when you get out and use what you have learned with
real […]
Do you have anyone to practice Spanish with
0 Comments Published December 28th, 2007 in Marcus SantamariaHola Amigos
Like most of my students, you probably fit
into one of these two groups.
1) You live where Spanish is spoken or travel
often to a Spanish speaking country. Your reason
for learning is so that you can communicate with the
native Spanish speakers you come into contact with.
2) You like the Spanish language, and enjoy […]

Today I am going to give you an audio lesson from
one of my unfinished projects.
Actually, I am getting a little frustrated.
You see, I have so many ideas that I want to share with
you, but I know it is going to take a couple of years
before I finish them all.
If you have completed […]
