Spanish Immersion Antigua: It Is Everything You Expect

The sun is shining brightly in the sky and I feel a cool breeze on my face as I walk on the path  behind my house. Today is the day I get to practice with a group of Spanish speaking students as we prepare for our trip to Spain. I  hastily enrolled in the spanish immersion antigua program because I don’t have much going this summer. A week ago I download all my lessons for the class to my ipod so I have everything I need in one place. Since I do a lot of walking during the spring and summer months, I can take the opportunity to listen and practice my nouns, verbs, and vocabulary. I also get a big lift from hearing someone with proper pronunciation say the words, then I can repeat them as I continue in stride on the beaten path. So I get exercise and learn my Spanish well.

Over and above this, you will also find that the audio quality has a lot to do with the ease with which you can do dictation transcription. Once you are able to get good quality tapes, this job can become a lot easier.
