Textbook advice

by Marilyn

May 21, 2016

I teach middle school, Spanish I and Spanish II classes at a Christian school in Florida. We are a very small school and do not have the up-to-date technology that allows me to use on-line textbooks and materials. I am planning to replace our worn out and overused copies of En Español, and considering either the Ven Conmigo or Buen Viaje series. I know that these are older series, but it appears that I can obtain the copies I would need through Amazon. But I would like to hear the opinons from any of you who have used either of these series as to which you prefer and why. Thanks!

What was it about Buen Viaje that you didn't like?
