Comment from Marbella

¡Muy bien Ben y Marina, me mola el podcast! Es mucho más apropiado para mi nivel de español. Gracias. Hasta la semana que viene.

Comment from Hugh Griffin

Great! I found the “Advanced” a bit too advanced for me but the “Intermediate” is just great! I look forward to many more.

Comment from Peter in California

This is just the right level for me! Thank you!

Comment from outpostbabu

I know I can listen to the podcast from here but I’d like to subscribe to it through itunes so I get the updates automatically. It doesn’t look like its appeared there yet. Has it been added? And if/when it is, I assume it will be called “Notes in Spanish Intermediate”? Looking forward to it.

Comment from karl

I’m very pleased to have found your podcast and especially so at the outset of the new intermediate level. Estoy muy entusmasiado y tengo una esperanza … renewed … con mis estudios. I’m not using anyother podcatcher so I’m also looking forward to finding the intermediate podcast on iTunes.

Comment from ben

Hi, thanks for all the comments. The intermediate podcast is now in iTunes, details are in a post at the top of Notesinspanish.com today, or click on the button on the subscribe page.

Or try dragging the orange button to the Podcast directory in iTunes

That worked for me (Mac G4 running OS X 10.2.8)

Comment from Outpostbabu

I have subscribed now through iTunes. This is great with both the advanced and intermediate podcasts, can we expect twice the podcasting output?

Comment from Ben

One of each a week, hopefully

Comment from Barbara in Germany

Hi, both of your Notes in Spanish podcasts are great and help me a lot!

Comment from Jonathan

I don’t feel so out of my depth with the intermediate podcasts compared to the advanced. Thanks for this great resource. Keep them coming.

Comment from Eline from Norway

Hola! This was realy nice. I can hardly wait for the next program.

My level is to low to get all of the dialog, but because you speak clear and clearify, it`s just fine.

Keep them coming

Comment from Nick in ‘sunny’ Bradford U.K.

Have I missed something, or is there any chance of a full translation of the transcript (intermediate), just to compare & check my understanding of the converstion?

Comment from ben

Sorry, there is no full translation, just the worksheet with a full transcript. Going through the transcript with a dictionary for the tricky words should help you learn much more though!

Comment from Jessi in the US

Fantastic! I love it. The speed of speech is perfect.

Comment from Ricardo

Hola Ben,

Es posible puede darme la lecion como forma de mp3? He comprado las pdf hojas, pero quiero escuchar a las hablados en mi coche.

Gracias senor

Comment from Ben

Comment from Frederick Eisele

Ben & Marina:
Just learned about your site; I think it’s one of the best out there. However, I think more folks would use (buy) your Worksheets if you posted a sample worksheet, so they could get some idea of what sort of learning aid they would be buying. What do you think?
Fred

Comment from Ben

Hi Fred, I think it is a good idea, I’ll sort it out ASAP.

Comment from Thomas

Just start with the first Podcast. It’s great! Thank you very much!

Comment from becky

estos podcasts son mas buenos que coffeebreakspanish. creo que la manera en que ustedes conversan sea perfecta para un individuo aprendiendo espanol como yo mismo. estoy muy ansiosa empezar a conversar en espanol con soltura.

Comment from anna

Por los que les gustaria encontrar mas de palabras pueden mirar a http://wordreference.com/. Hay un diccionario muy usil que lo uso cada vez que leo un dialogo porque hay palabras que no las se. Mi problema es que el volumen del podcasts es bajo.

Comment from MRussell

No hay nada que contar no debe tener la tilde encima de la ‘e’ en que, verdad? Ahi esta en su transcripcion… perdon, no las tengo en la ordenadora que uso

Comment from Vernon

I still do not understand ‘aportarse’…..when you say “me aportó una mujer”

Yes, I do, I just got it. Marina says What did you contribute and you say (as above)
Thanks

Los Deberes . . .

Soy de los Estados Unidos. Nací en el noroeste parte del estado de Washington. Me moceé [grew up?] en un pueblito en la frontera de Canadá. Viví por muchos años en el estado de Ohio, y ahora vivo de nuevo en el estado de Washington.

Me gustan a leer, andar la bicicleta, dar una caminata en las montañas, geo-aligo (“geocache”), y claro que si estudiar español. También me encantan escuchar a música y pasar tiempo con mis amigos.

Grácias por su podcasts y newsletter. Favor de corregir mis comentarios.

Comment from John

Nice job, guys. I, too, am enjoying your conversations. I feel like I have two new friends in Spain.

I was a bit surprised by the quantum jump from beginners to intermediate and a bit dissapointed by the lack of translation at the intermediate level.
Congratulations and best of luck we future efforts!

Comment from Ben

@John – Real Spanish Control is designed to help with the leap to intermediate, if you are interested. Also, we don’t offer translations at the Intermediate and Advanced levels for a very deliberate reason: we truly believe that Spanish learners will learn more and commit more of the language to the long-term memory, by working with the Spanish alone, and having to look up the occasional word that isn’t defined on the worksheets and is proving tricky. I hope this makes sense. I learned my Spanish here in Spain in a very ‘Spanish only’ environment, and I really think it’s the best approach!
