Real Spanish Listening Challenge
Understand Fast, Real Spoken Spanish – Double your Listening Skills, in Just 4 Weeks

The Problem This 4 Week Challenge Solves:
But when a native speaker talks at normal, fast speed…
> Your brain just… crashes.
You miss words.
You can’t keep up.
You get embarrassed.
You smile and nod.
You retreat into English.
…and if you’re watching a series or movie, you just get totally lost.

What our learners say:
“In just four weeks, my fluency reached a level it had been struggling to get to before.” – Valerie
“I now have more confidence listening to Spanish.” — Leigh Anne
My problem was always hearing spoken Spanish when a native speaker replied to me. Notes in Spanish has addressed this common issue, I’m very pleased. – Keith
I have been visiting [Spain] the last few years and trying hard to converse in Spanish, but it was Marina and Ben’s audios that helped me most to tune in to what the locals were saying. [You get] so much practice at listening to real Spanish in full flow, as against the staged, somewhat stilted and artificial conversations of other courses. – Sahlan D.
“This is the single best investment I’ve made in my self-education approach to learning Spanish.” – James
My Spanish dramatically improved after finding Notes in Spanish, and I continue eagerly anticipating every new audio and video that Ben and Marina publish! – Linda

Can I be real with you for a sec?
If you don’t take action now, your Spanish listening skills will stagnate. The longer you plateau, the more frustrated you may become and you may never get to really understand fast native speakers.
You don’t have to avoid Spanish speaking situations any longer or feel lost when watching fast Spanish conversations.
You’ll be able to:
>> Immerse yourself in the culture.
>> Understand Spanish better than ever before.
>> Express yourself with confidence.
Remember, understanding fast-spoken Spanish confidently is totally possible. Let’s make it happen together!
Ben and Marina are gifted teachers, and they conscientiously consolidate vocab and grammar at all levels. I decided to trust them to do this, and they do! My confidence has shot up along with my speaking ability (like osmosis, really!). I’m living in Spain currently, and have been effortlessly chatting to my decorator all week. It’s great! – Rebecca L

Got Questions? We’ve Got Answers!
I’m quite busy, What if I can’t make the Live Session?
Don’t worry, we’ll be sending out a replay of the Live Q and A Session the same day or the following morning, so you can watch them whenever you like.
Do I have to do each module the day it’s released?
Not at all, you can do each module whenever suits you. Ideally you’ll be able to follow the 4 Week schedule fairly closely (2 modules per week), to see maximum progress, but if you need longer that’s fine. (Challenge materials will be available for at least 2 years!)
Where does all this take place?
To give you a deeper, tailor-made learning experience, we’ll be hosting this challenge on our private, 100% secure Notes in Spanish courses and membership platform.
This is the same platform we use for all our Notes in Spanish courses and it works wonderfully.
How long will the challenge and Q and A replay be available for?
We’ll be offering full access to the challenge modules and Q and A replay for at least two years.
Apart from improving listening, can we practice our speaking too?
We plan to have time for some chat in the live Q and A Zoom sessions, but the focus of this challenge is on massively improving your listening.
What level is this for?
Intermediate and Advanced students. If you are a beginner, you need to be working on the Beginners course in our store.
How long is each live session?
Each live Q and A zoom session (2 in total) is around one hour long.
When will you be doing this Challenge again?
We have no date fixed for the next edition of this challenge, it’ll probably be 6 to 9 months away, so don’t miss out now! You’ll be massively increasing your Spanish listening right now.
Got another question that isn’t answered here?
Just email us your question to [email protected] and we’ll get back to you in 24 to 48 hours.
