such a wonderful podcast. i love the topics, the clear and concise voice and pronunciation ! Only just started listening and i'm super glad to have a huge back log to listen to.
First time listener and this is the exact concept I’ve been looking for. I’ve been wanting to learn Spanish the way I learned English. By listening and with level-appropriate *immersive* instruction. Can’t wait to continue daily.
Cuéntame! is a fantastic podcast for Spanish learners looking to build their comprehension through Comprehensible Input — and it delivers in a uniquely accessible way. Each segment is run twice: the first time with a few English words sprinkled in to aid understanding, and the second entirely in Spanish. It’s a great format that lets you track your own progress, and you’ll find yourself understanding more and more with each listen.
The host speaks very clearly, which makes following along easy e... more
