Rating:
Summary: Muchisimas gracias, Dorothy Richmond!
Review: ...for making clear (FINALLY!) the distinction between "para" and "por," for creating a workbook that is not only instructive but fun to use, and for keeping my hope alive that even linguistically-impaired people like me can learn a new language after the age of 21!

Summary: The best
Review: After struggling with español for seven months in a Mexican language school, I found this book. It very clearly and effectively explains and teaches what I suspect is a ticklish aspect of most languages, prepositions and pronouns. It has helped me immensely, and it will help you, too. Gracias to Ms. Richmond, the author.

Summary: master the prepositions you're on your way to fluency
Review: Assuming that you've mastered,more or less your verb endings, learning how prepositions are used to change meanings is the next step towards speaking creatively; that is to say, not just memorizing all purpose words and sentances, but having fun with the Spanish language.

Summary: Essential
Review: For me, pronouns and prepositions are one of the most difficult aspects of learning Spanish. The way pronouns and prepositions are applied in Spanish is quite different from how they're applied in English. This book helps clarify that usage.

Summary: Foreign Service Officer thinks its Great!
Review: I just finished language training at the US State Department's National Foreign Affairs Training Center in Spanish and I don't think I would have passed without both Practice Makes Perfect books by Deveny (Verb Tenses/Pronouns and Prepositions). Many students there at one of the best language schools in the country are using these books, and I saw many professors with them as well, utilizing the exercises in the books in class with their students. If you are a language student that HAS to reach a level of proficiency for you job or just want to improve your ability to correctly use the language, these books are for you!
