Pasaporte Al Mundo Hispano - Softcover

The book and CD that make up Pasaporte al mundo hispano are an advanced Spanish language course designed specifically for students in the year they go abroad for a study year. The exercises build up students' linguistic competence by working with texts and voices from different parts of the Spanish-speaking world; but as well as developing traditional linguistic skills they ask: What types of location in Spain or Latin America would be most appropriate for me? What are the practical problems I am most likely to encounter? What are the principal social and cultural differences I will meet? It is the authors' belief that linguistic and cultural preparation are inseparable, and essential if the student is to derive full benefit from the experience of living in Spain or Latin America.
