Now, available as an option to go with the book that was published this past fall, Barron�s is offering a book-and-two-cassette package version of Outreach Spanish. This more comprehensive approach to learning lets users hear and comprehend the spoken sounds of informal Spanish. Outreach Spanish is focused to help English speakers who have no Spanish at all and need to learn basics of conversational Spanish for their work as family counselors, clergymen, and welfare and public benefits workers of all kinds.
