Learn Spanish with Paul Noble for Beginners – Complete Course: Spanish Made Easy with Your Personal Language Coach

The media could not be loaded. My name is Drew. I’m a vlogger who reviews learning-Spanish products. Today, I’m going to review “Learn Spanish with Paul Noble for Beginners.” This is not the first Spanish program from Paul Noble that I have purchased. I’m very familiar with his programs and I must say they are among the best.There are many things that I really like about Paul Noble’s style of teaching Spanish. He has a no-pressure style of teaching. He starts out by giving you some “ground rules” on how to get the most out of his program. For example, he recommends that you do not actively try to memorize the material.There are pauses for you to answer his questions before the Spanish speakers says the correct answers. But he tells you to feel free to use your pause button and think about your answers before responding.He also recommends that you do not write any notes when studying with his program. That was some of the best advice that I ever received in a Spanish program – because no one has the time to review the notes they’ve written down.As part of Paul Noble’s no-pressure style of teaching Spanish, he also tells you to not worry about making any mistakes when learning Spanish. His “ground rules” and no-pressure style of teaching really put me at ease so that I could easily absorb and recall the Spanish he teaches.This is one of the few Spanish programs that teaches both the Latin American Spanish pronunciation and European Spanish pronunciation. Personally, I would have preferred if the program only featured voice actors from Latin America - because the majority of the Spanish speakers who I meet are from Latin America.The only real weakness in this program is the same weakness that I have found in many other Spanish programs. Many of my Spanish speaking friends are millennials and we talk about social media. We also work in computers and technology. This program doesn’t cover much Spanish for computers and technology or social media. Even with this one flaw, I still give it 5 stars based upon its effective teaching method.In closing, I’ll leave you with the 4 learning-Spanish resources which are currently my favorites. (My list of favorites changes from time to time):1. 501 Spanish Verbs (501 Verb Series) If you think you can accomplish fluency in Spanish as an adult without mastering conjugating Spanish verbs, you are only fooling yourself. This book is an absolute essential resource for learning how to conjugate Spanish verbs. It will show you how to conjugate every Spanish verb tense imaginable. This is my NUMERO UNO resource for learning Spanish.2. Millennial Spanish - Millennial Spanish - Learn Beginner Spanish: Learn & Speak Conversational Spanish This is my favorite learning-Spanish audio program. What I like most about it is that it teaches Spanish for the new millennium. Instead of learning Spanish centered around the same old conversations that most Spanish programs cover – such as checking in a hotel or eating at a restaurant - you learn Spanish for conversations centered around social media, technology and computers, veganism and even Uber transportation. This audio Spanish program also meets all my other criteria for being a top-notch Spanish program: Only features native Spanish speakers to develop listening comprehension and proper pronunciation in Spanish, and has a fun and engaging teaching method. The ebook alone will not do the job. You'll need to get the Audiobook at Amazon or Audible to get the most out of this learning Spanish program.3. Learning Spanish Like Crazy Level 1 - New & Improved Version: Learn Beginner Spanish Bundle: Lessons 1 to 30 This is my second favorite learning-Spanish audio program. There's an "original" version of this audiobook that can be found on Amazon but this is the New & Improved Version. What stands out about this audio program is the style of teaching used. The teaching style is very engaging and interactive. The Spanish instructor is constantly interacting with the student and allowing the student to participate. Since the speakers in the audiobook are all native Spanish speakers, it really helps you to develop an authentic accent. But what appeals to me most is that there is a major emphasis on everyday, conversational Spanish unlike the Spanish taught in most audio programs which teach more academic or formal Spanish. Besides the beginner program, there is an intermediate version: Learn Intermediate Spanish Bundle: The Ultimate Learning Intermediate Spanish Bundle: Lessons 31 to 60 from Learning Spanish Like Crazy Level Two There is also a version for advanced students: Learn Advanced Spanish Bundle: Includes Both New Version & Original Version of Learning Spanish Like Crazy Level Three: The Ultimate Learning Advanced Spanish Bundle You will need the audiobooks. The ebooks alone will not be enough to learn Spanish effectively. All three audiobooks include a PDF transcript which can be found in your Audible library so there's really no need to buy the ebook.4. Accelerated Spanish: Learn fluent Spanish with a proven accelerated learning system is my favorite learning Spanish ebook and that is because it does double duty. It has taught me numerous Spanish-learning hacks. And I have also learned countless techniques to enhance my memory. Not only am I able to use these techniques to remember all the vocabulary and grammar I learn when studying a foreign language, but I can also use the techniques to effectively remember anything, from small, minute daily tasks to insights that can have an everlasting impact. There is also a hardcover version of Accelerated Spanish.

Usually the present tense is what is taught first but these CDs are a little unorthodox. Paul Noble uses the past tense (actually the present perfect)in the beginning. He has a reason for using this tense first which I found in CD 10. He uses many tricks to learning the different tenses and one of them incorporates the present perfect tense. His method of teaching is very smart.I am remembering everything Paul is teaching because I only have to remember the tricks. You would think this 12 cd audio program would have more information on it, but because it gives you time to answer questions that is not the case. I have to say this is the only why to learn. I don't care how much learning information is on this 12 CD set because I am learning everything at a great price. Yes! everything thing. Why does it take a simple European audio program to do what all the American programs have not done for me? Now, I know why all the Europeans know how to speak many languages because it is there education system.great feature is having two Translators:First Translator - South American SpanishSecond Translator- European SpanishThe CD box is poorly designed with each CD placed on top of each other and almost touching. I feel in time this design will scratch the cds.In conclusion, This is the only way to learn spanish:Step one- teach, Step two- question me, step three -I answer, and Step four- then I am given the answer in two forms of spanish. Five Stars outstanding!

I drive a 2 hour commute on a daily basis. I was never a "good" second language student and only took some French in grade school and two years of Latin in high school. I was skeptical but hopeful about Paul's audio course. I couldn't believe it: IT WORKS! I've only completed one CD (@ 1 hour) and I can already speak and understand some basic Spanish phrases and have learned almost 2,000 Spanish words. (Yes - there are several tricks to convert certain English words into Spanish words). I've replayed the first CD twice and am now comfortable in advancing to the next CD. I feel that I've already had more success learning Spanish with this one CD than I did learning French or Latin in 1-2 years at school. I'm looking forward to working on the second CD driving home tonight. I also wanted to quickly mention that other reviewers were critical of the author's decision to offer two different dialects of Spanish, one Latin American and one from Spain. I did not find the two dialects confusing. They are largely repetitive and help reinforce the correct words/pronunciation. As Paul mentioned, it's like learning English with two instructors: one from America and one from Great Britain. 100% worth the investment.
