The Coffee Break Spanish Magazine is a 10-episode series for intermediate to advanced learners of Spanish. Presented by native speaker Fernanda and teacher Mark, and featuring our correspondents Sofía and Anabel, each episode will present cultural topics and grammar study in an enjoyable way, allowing you to build your vocabulary and increase your range of expression. It is recommended that learners complete Coffee Break Spanish Season 1 and Season 2 before taking this course.
Each episode has three sections:
- Study of a text: Sofía or Anabel reads a text on a cultural topic and then together Fernanda and Mark discuss the language in this text, focusing on interesting points of vocabulary and grammar;
- Listener's question: Fernanda answers a question from a listener on an aspect of learning Spanish;
- "La Guinda del pastel"to end the episode, Sofía and Anabel present "the icing on the cake", an additional piece of interesting vocabulary or an idiomatic expression from around the Spanish-speaking world which will help you sound more like a native speaker.
The audio episodes for this course are available as free podcasts on the Coffee Break Languages website. The premium course includes three exclusive elements for each lesson:
- Full transcript and notes: throughout the episodes Fernanda and Mark speak in a combination of Spanish and English. Every word of Spanish, either in the text or in the natural discussion between the presenters, is provided in the transcript. The transcript also provides notes on vocabulary or further explanations of what is covered in the lesson.
- Vocabulary list: we've listed all the key words covered in each episode in a handy document presented alphabetically in English > Spanish and Spanish > English to help you test yourself on what you know already and what you've learned in each episode.
- Exercises: check your understanding of the various grammar points covered in each lesson with our exercises. We've also provided an answer key to help you check your work.
