Editorial Review: Comprehensive Spanish (L.A.) II includes 30 additional lessons (16 hrs.), plus Readings, which build upon the language skills acquired in Level I. Increased spoken and reading language ability. Level II will double your vocabulary and grammatical structures while increasing your spoken proficiency exponentially. Upon completion of a Level II, you will be able to: * engage in fuller conversations involving yourself, your family, daily activities, interests and personal preferences, * combine known elements into increasingly longer sentences and strings of sentences, * create with language and function in informal situations, * deal with concrete topics in the past, present, and future, * meet social demands and limited job requirements, * begin reading for meaning. Note: In order for the Pimsleur Method to work correctly, you must first complete the Level I language program before proceeding to the Level II language program.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Very good, but not by itself
Absent a Spanish speaking pal, Pimsleur is all I have to keep me speaking, and I have become very attached to the two "native" speakers, the man, the woman, who have remained on board thru I and II. Pimselur really works, IMO, because, for one, it uses bi-lingual teaching. My friend, who does not speak any Spanish, teaches ESL, and one of his students was not really learning much English until he had her use the Pimsleur basic ESL. The student jumped ahead of the other students in the class. "It ... Read More
Rating: - Wonderful Introduction to Spanish but doesn't work too well against the Merciless
I agree with the reviewer that said that this course is good for beginners. I would not recommend it for anyone other than a beginner. Pimsluer is a wonderful introduction to Spanish but not much more than that. If you really want to take your Spanish beyond the beginner level you are going to need a lot more than Pimsleur. I am probably better off than most Pimsleur "students" because I have done a number of Spanish courses (besides Pimsleur) and read many Spanish books, including grammar books, ... Read More
Rating: - no regrets, but far from completely satisfied
Although I have no regrets about using Pimsleur Spanish II, I am not 100% satisfied. After finishing the Pimsleur series I have learned some Spanish but I don't think that I have learned as much Spanish as I thought that I would have learned. As a couple of reviewers already pointed out, Pimsleur does not cover as much Spanish as the FSI Spanish method (but I paid several times more).
There are a bunch of reasons why I feel this way. But as a couple of reviewers have already mentioned, ... Read More
Rating: - Bookchip version is better and easier to use,
Bookchip version is better and easier to use, ( 3 bookchips compared to 52 cds) I bought bookchips and cds, send cds back. Buy Bookchip (Audiofy Bookchip) instead.
Rating: - a bit pricey you say?
Other reviewers have already adequately listed the reasons for using the Pimsleur method. I did all three levels of Italian and have a excellent proficiency in the language (especially pronunciation).
However, the price for these CDs is a bit high in my opinion. Pimsleur could actually make more $ by lowering the price because many more people would then buy it. I think it's an exorbitant price and a ridiculous burden on a poor little consumer who's trying to become bilingual. Anyway. ... Read More
