All of the videos (except for the free samples) are now available in the archives. You need to become a Rolling R’s Member to watch them. Please visit http://www.rollingrs.com/membership for more info…

Thanks!

I understand why they charge now but even as small afee as it is it is out of my reach it is such a shame that this I can’t access the material I had allready downloaded for free without paying for it =/ I appreciate all of your hard work but it was a huge surprise to me to see I can’t access teh files I allready had after a hard drive fail not only have I lost my data but can’t get back the lessons I lost without subscribing.

Also I can’t find the ditty you had donde where por que why etc etc in the theme of jingle bells I beleave.

Shame all good things come to end as the money monster kicks in.

Larry please remeber the reason you originally did this, yes we all need $$$ to live but some of us just can’t afford to pay for these lessons such as my self and originally this site was started to help people like me to learn Spanish.

Good luck.

Thanks for the great podcasts! I just purchased the membership last week and I am very satisfied with the series. I am using this series in conjunction with two other websites to become a fluent Spanish speaker.

I like this website for the grammatical lessons. I am a concept learner, so I like to understand the how’s and the why’s to accompany my listening and speaking practice.

The other websites I use are http://www.notesinspanish.com which is excellent for listening to Spanish conversations and picking up true Spanish phrases and words. I am currently living in Madrid and am trying to learn Castellan Spanish as opposed to South American versions of Spanish. So this website is very helpful in this way. It is also excellent for enhancing my listening comprehension. For example in Spain, they usually use the Vosotros form as opposed to the Ustedes form in normal conversation unless it is someone who is much older or someone of particularly higher position.

I also used http://www.spanishforbeginners.com which was good when I first began studying the language, because it is basic and simple. However, now I don’t find it as useful as I feel I have moved on from that stage.

Also, I attended a Spanish language learning school here in Madrid for 4 weeks called AIL. It is an excellent school, but I simply cannot afford to go week after week. Obviously, this is the very best way to learn – learning, speaking and listening from a Spanish teacher for 4 hours per day only speaking Spanish.

However, there were some things I missed even during the school – such as a clear explanation of the difference between preterite and imperfect past tenses. That is difficult to explain in Spanish to someone who is still learning the language. For me personally, it is better to have that explained in English.

I like how you breakdown each sentence and explain why each is word is there and why it is in the form that it is in. I find this to be very helpful. Also, as I said before explaining the difference between preterite and perfect was great for me personally. I like explanations of the subtleties of word meanings – hacerse versus ponerse.

I have just finished episode number 69 and hope to finish all of them tonight or tomorrow. I am viewing them one after another while taking notes. I will watch all of them again several times to solidify my comprehension.

The series has been a great addition to my learning.

Thanks again.

Sincerely
Simon

The content is clear and concise – efficient and rewarding.

Not the same as being in class but very beneficial as self study course. In fact, in some ways it is superior to a class because he hits key points efficiently.

It’s great that I can hit backup and just play the past couple seconds.

Watching his accentuated mouth movements helps a lot.

Keim and his audio visual crew make learning a pleasure.
