read this for a class, Spanish is hard. This was a really effective textbook for the class I had to use it for! It's good at explaining concepts and clear about exceptions to language rules.
This has to be the most convoluted textbook I've ever read, The information is given out of order, and a background knowledge in Spanish is basically assumed, Example: Not presenting Present tense conjugation until pagebut using fully conjugated sentences often without translation from page, The layout is also very distracting and adds to the feeling of randomness, This is all very disappointing, especially since the text is required reading in my college class, Take a fresh look at Puntos it's everything you wanted and more than you hoped for, Puntos has offered more than a million students a solid foundation to their language studies, The new edition of Puntos maintains its pioneer approach of the development of all four skills with a strong grammar and vocabulary foundation, as well as the teacher tested activities.
