A high school Spanish teacher from New York City, who is currently using Sueños
de la isla in her classes, reports that her students are really enjoying the book,
are proud of how much they can actually understand, and are even trying to sneak
to the end to find out what happens. She also says, " As a teacher I can say that
the activities on the CD are amazingly thorough, thoughtful, and very helpful. I
just wanted to let you know that you have done great work."

presentations, my speaking ability improved."

"It helped with the past tense a lot, and now I feel like I know more words. Overall,
I loved reading it and I like oral exams about it because it truly shows we know
a lot of Spanish."
