¡Hola! ¡Gracias por su ayuda! ¡Sus videos son geniales! Noté que usted habÃa pegado el video malo (Test 1 en lugar de Test 2). ¡Saludos desde Polonia!
Gracias por decÃrmelo. Ya lo arreglé. 🙂
I am just beginning intermediate Spanish. We are in the review stage and I appreciate the site for allowing me to practice because I have a quiz tomorrow.
Where are the answers? I am on Windows 7 and when I tried to enter the answers on the practice, it wouldn’t allow it so I put my answers on paper.
On the printed questions number 19 is asks the question in reverse order as compared to the video.
