(More customer reviews)I can't say enough wonderful things about this educational resource. I used the DVDs and workbook consistently for 4 months in order to refresh my Spanish skills with the hope of finding a job in the field of health education. I knew I would be a more marketable job candidate if I could get my Spanish proficiency back to where it had been 8 years earlier. The package is very user-friendly and the plot of the telenovela is as entertaining as the best soap operas around. The storyline teaches you about a huge range of health topics in a culturally appropriate context (HIV/AIDS, diabetes, domestic violence, immunizations...). The activities are fun and you can pick and choose those that will be most helpful to you.
I am now working in NYC counseling people who are HIV-Positive -in English and Spanish. Without A Su Salud! I would not have been hired for this job. The workbook is sitting in my office and I am still using it. I have used a range of education resources to improve my proficiency in Spanish and this one is by far the very best.
