There are 42 Spanish video lessons with accompanying written lesson notes in each of the three courses and they are all packed full of essential Spanish grammar, vocabulary, phrases and expressions.<\/p>\n<p>I will now be producing a series of new interactive review lessons which will give you the opportunity to practice and test your Spanish knowledge at each level to see how much you have learned and remembered from the original theory lessons. Answers to all tasks involved in the lessons will be given at the end of the post.<\/p>\n<p>In this first Spanish review lesson we will practice how to introduce yourself in Spanish, how to state your nationality in Spanish and how to state where you are from in Spanish.

How do you say hello to someone?<br \/>\n2. How do you say your name? My name is\u2026 Or I am called\u2026<br \/>\n3. How do you ask someone their name in a formal way?<br \/>\n4. How do you ask someone their name in a friendly way?<br \/>\n5. How do you greet someone in the afternoon?<br \/>\n6. How do you ask how another person is in a friendly way?<br \/>\n7. What will you answer if a person says to you \u201c\u00bfC\u00f3mo est\u00e1 usted?\u201d<br \/>\n8. Tell me two ways to say goodbye to someone<br \/>\n9. How do you ask someone where they are from in a friendly way?<br \/>\n10. How do you ask someone where they are from in a formal way?<\/p>\n<p><strong>I will now say a few countries in English and you should tell me in Spanish that you are from that country. For example, \u201cFrance\u201d: \u201cSoy de Francia\u201d:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Spain<br \/>\n2. United States<br \/>\n3. England<br \/>\n4. Ireland<br \/>\n5. Scotland<\/p>\n<p><strong>Next, I would like you to say that your nationality is the following in Spanish. For example, \u201cSpanish\u201d: \u201cSoy espa\u00f1ol\u201d or \u201cSoy espa\u00f1ola\u201d, depending on whether you are a man or a woman:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. French<br \/>\n2. German<br \/>\n3. Canadian<br \/>\n4. British<br \/>\n5. Welsh<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finally, we are going to simulate a conversation in Spanish. Imagine that you have just met me and we are having our first introductory conversation. I will say a few things and give you a bit of time to make your reply:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Hola! Buenos d\u00edas<br \/>\n1 &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.<br \/>\n\u00bfC\u00f3mo est\u00e1s?<br \/>\n2 &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.<br \/>\nMuy bien.
