Focus your Spanish learning on the most frequently used verbs. Learn just the 100 verbs you need for everyday life to talk about the past, the present, and the future. One of the usual mistakes when learning a foreign language is that the student has no priorities. All the unknown verbs get the same attention. Actually, to communicate, you only need 100 verbs in any language. These verbs are the most frequently used and can be defined using an algorithm that provides the ranking. In this book, you'll find the list.

Would you listen to Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish, Lesson 1 again? Why?
These lessons are great. The Michel Thomas Spanish Introductory course recording contains lesson 1 and 2. So....Buy introductory lesson, then lesson 3,4,5,6,7. I bought lesson 1 and 2 and was a bit miffed to find I already had them in the Introductory course!

Good but very expensive in this form
What made the experience of listening to Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish, Lesson 1 the most enjoyable?
Starting to learn any language with the Michel Thomas method is great. I started with German and I'm currently working my way through Arabic, Spanish, and Mandarin.
However purchasing from Audible is the most expensive method and on top of that you can't lend them to anyone else. My recommendation would be to buy the CD's, rip them into iTunes and convert them to audiobook format so that you get to keep your place as you progress.

Decent method, poor quality recording
Michel Thomas' method works, that's a fact. However, the way in which this has been recorded makes it difficult to listen to. The giggles and the pronunciation battles that his two students are encountering don't necessarily make for an enjoyable listen. Compare this to Paul Noble's course and the production quality isn't comparable.

Easy intro Spanish
Would you listen to Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish, Lesson 1 again? Why?
Yes. Good pace and clearly demonstrates how to speak Spanish. Useful language to use straight away with confidence.
What did you like best about this story?
The presentation enables you to join in and practise speaking sentences as the two students and Michel Thomas encourage participation.
What about Michel Thomas’s performance did you like?
Most encouraging with brief statements which are built on to enable students to form sentences for themselves. Rules of language introduced as more words are used which leads to greater flexibility in forming sentences. His technique promotes simple exchanges in Spanish which Is obviously enjoyable to both students.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes.
Any additional comments?
The free audible download offers a most useful demonstration that this is the language learning facility for me.

Buy Intro Beg Span by Michel Thomas: Covers 1 & 2
Where does Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish, Lesson 1 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I like this but it is the same as the first half of the introduction course. The second half is lesson 2. Save your money and just buy the introduction.
What other book might you compare Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish, Lesson 1 to and why?
Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish is like Pimlseur Approach but with much less repetition. Michel Thomas gives a more logical reasoning of how to speak and think in Spanish.
Have you listened to any of Michel Thomas’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Yes. I have listened to the introduction of Michele Thomas. Is the same as Lesson 1 and 2. Buy the Introduction series to save money,
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It made me happy that I found an interesting approach to learning Spanish. It is much better than just memorizing a bunch of words. He helps you form sentences through a list of frequently used words in our language we use daily.

Absolutely brilliant
What did you love best about Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish, Lesson 1?
This system is brilliantly put together and makes it super-easy to start speaking simple Spanish almost immediately by concentrating on the words that are the same (or almost the same) between Spanish & English.
I spent 3 weeks trying to learn Spanish from free podcasts, which ranged from decent to terrible. Then, on the advice of a friend I tried the Michel Thomas lessons and loved them. Vastly superior.

Hard to understand
What disappointed you about Michel Thomas Beginner Spanish, Lesson 1?
In what I can only assume is a very thick (German?) accent the narrorator is very hard to understand or hear so it makes it impossible to learn.
What didn’t you like about Michel Thomas’s performance?
Hard to hear and understand, gave up about twenty minutes in as the accent was so thick it made it impossible to learn anything or understand what was beings said.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Anger
Any additional comments?
Change the narrorator otherwise this whole lesson is useless.
