Making the Grade
I used to be a really good Spanish student, but this year I feel totally lost. I get frustrated easily, and I don't like the teacher at all. My writing grades in Spanish seem to fluctuate and I don't always understand why. I don't know what to do because the teacher hasn't given me any suggestions except to proofread. Any ideas? Please share them on the forum:

Audio Grammar Tool?
Is there an on-line program, video, etc., that involves a teacher teaching advanced grammar - including voice capacity? I am interested in listening to a teacher explain the principles and using examples that I can learn from, very much like what you would receive in attendance at a third/fourth year college level course. I need to "hear" the material. Suggestions? Please respond on the forum:
