¡Hola!

This is the fourth interactive review lesson in this new Spanish course aimed at giving you the opportunity to practice and test your Spanish knowledge at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels.

At the moment we are practicing the 42 beginner level theory Spanish lessons that you can find here on the Transparent Language Spanish Blog. Hopefully you have already seen those lessons are in the process of working through them. The idea of these Spanish review lessons is to see how much you have learned and remembered from the original courses.

In today’s lesson we will practice useful Spanish vocabulary and phrases related to Jobs in Spanish and an introduction to the Spanish masculine and feminine. Answers to all tasks involved in this lesson will be given at the end of the post and you can also follow a link with this post to watch the original theory video lesson.
