Espana Viva aims not only to teach Spanish but also something about the people who speak it. Ideal for those who know little or no Spanish, it is carefully structured to suit learners without much time to study. By the end of the course you should be able to handle a great variety of everyday situations, reaching the equivalent level of a first qualification such as GCSE. This 224-page course book is designed to be used with the Espana Viva audio CDs, which are available separately (9780563472674). It covers the key language you'll need for holidays and spending time in Spain and contains a mixture of dialogues from the audio and original TV recordings, followed by explanations and exercises. The course book is also available as part of a pack, which includes the audio CDs (9781406677034).
