5 out of 5 stars A very good option   June 3, 2008

I live in Venezuela, I speak spanish as native language. I'm learning English by myself as a second language. This book and CD audio are very good, in it you will find dialogues and dayly expressions that can help you if you are not an expert. I can write in English so so, but my hear is not trainned to listen english conversation and dialogues. If you want to improve your English vocabulary and train your hear, it is for you. br /The seller was on time and the package fine. I'm very glad.

Speak English Like an American has a great format. You learn hundreds of American English idioms and phrases through a story. You have the option of listening along on a CD too.

I was really dissapointed with this book. It is not worth the money. All it does in this book, so called "Speak like an American" is to provide some american english slang.

this is a very good book, i even didnt expect it. All idioms in it are really common and used by native americans.I am just in the beginning of the book but i started to bother my husband and surroundings by using idioms all the time:)This book is not for the beginners but for people who wants to improve their language and make it more natural.Very very good book after all


5 out of 5 stars Clear, Practical, and Engaging   March 3, 2008

This excellent ESL textbook provides engaging model dialogs, explains practical American idioms - with solid definitions and examples, and includes a CD with clear articulation. The dialogs, illustrated with pen and ink cartoons, display a healthy sense of humor. br /Speak English Like an American is almost ideal for adult education students, international visitors seeking to improve their language skills, and young people considering studying in the United States. Apparently designed for self-study, this book also works for English tutors and classroom instructors. br /I strongly recommend this outstanding new book for immigrants and international students, ESL teachers and tutors. It's a winner!
