Feature Summary



  • Two video interviews per chapter with native Spanish speakers provide the foundation for the themes, vocabulary, and grammar of each chapter of the textbook, Manual de práctica, Audio CD Program, Interactive CD-ROM, and other ancillaries.
  • A diverse group of interviewees from seventeen different countries exposes students to a wide range of accents and points of view.
  • The concept of culture is emphasized by the interviews but is also interwoven throughout all sections of the Entrevistas program. It is not tacked on as an afterthought, as can be the case in other first-year texts.
  • Cultural readings and activities encourage students to examine and compare the perspective of Hispanic cultures in this country with the perspective(s) of native Hispanics and to, hopefully, dispel stereotypes about the Spanish-speaking world.
