Nervous, rambling robotic - these presentation styles can ruin a talk on even the most critical topics. And with each weak performance, career prospects dim.

You've probably been wasting time studying. If you've been using traditional language learning tools like classes or software to teach you Spanish -- I can almost guarantee it. These classes focus on memorization, basic vocabulary, routine phrases and conversations. And, naturally, these are all important. But, here's the thing -- most traditional Spanish classes are missing critical information that could save you hours of time and effort.

Resumen del Editor
Post-Drilling - Going Deeper than the Basics is the third book in the series Understanding Fast Spelling in English.
We will now move from the drills back into more lecture material. We'll introduce new topics, such as intonation, and examine the different tones used for questions and for answers. We'll also go into more detail on topics already introduced, such as glides. Since our goal is both to easily understand other speakers and to speak with clarity and naturalness ourselves, a detailed look at glides, linking, and clean connections is worthwhile. We'll also compare different types of letter pairs to strengthen our ability to hear and say all letter combinations.
About the series: The books and corresponding audiobooks is this series cover the exact same material. Although it's possible to work with the audio or even the text alone, most learners will find it useful to work with both the audio and text, usually at the same time.

Words on the Move opens our eyes to the surprising backstories to the words and expressions we use every day. Did you know that silly once meant "blessed"? Or that ought was the original past tense of owe? Or that the suffix -ly in adverbs is actually a remnant of the word like? And have you ever wondered why some people from New Orleans sound as if they come from Brooklyn?

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Grammar! For many of us, the word triggers memories of finger-wagging schoolteachers, and of wrestling with the ambiguous and complicated rules of using formal language. But what is grammar? In fact, it's the integral basis of how we speak and write. As such, a refined awareness of grammar opens a world of possibilities for both your pleasure in the English language and your skill in using it, in both speech and the written word.
