Sol y Viento: Beginning Spanish

I teach Spanish in Edinburgh, I have masters in media and I want to congratulate people who were working on that soap. First, Cast is brilliant, I know them because they have been on many soaps in Chile (I'm from Argentina in case) I don't agree with bad reviews, I'd advise this soap maybe better in classroom and not self-study cause many things (even there is a guide) you could miss contexts. About speed, look I'm using with intermediate and it's great. Other review said it's slow, great you might be master-advanced in Spanish, have a look at film "Nine Queens" (Nueve Reinas) to test how fast you are catching a true speed of spoken Spanish! I highly recommend this soap Sol y Viento but maybe linked to a proper Spanish course, so Sol y Viento as part of ways to learn the language!!

Genius move combining a soap opera with a textbook. The book is easy to follow, hits relevent topics to learn Spanish and for travelling in Spanish-speaking countries. This book lasts for 4 semesters and it makes me want to take all 4 just to see the end of the drama. I'm amazed that I can speak full sentences on relevent topics after a one night a week class for 7 weeks now. Bravo!
