What is All About Spanish Verbs?

It’s a collection of podcasts that improves your comprehension of the language and your ability to communicate by going beyond the classroom, revealing the many meanings of Spanish verbs that you were never taught, and how to use them in daily conversation with practical examples.

Normally you’re left to “pick up” these meanings over time, which can take months or years. But All About Spanish Verbs is the podcast series that dramatically shortens that learning curve, intuitively teaching the way to use verbs like native speakers do, without getting buried in confusing grammar rules.
