Publisher's Summary

For low- to high-intermediate learners

Black and White Interior Edition

Improve your Spanish and expand your vocabulary with topics that matter.

When it comes to mastering a foreign language, learning around your interests makes all the difference. But finding books designed for language learners can be hard! This book fixes that. For the first time, you’ll learn to improve your Spanish while learning about the history and theory of rock’n’roll.

“I love Olly’s work—and you will too!” (Barbara Oakley, PhD, Author of New York Times best seller A Mind for Numbers)

Told through short, manageable chapters in intermediate Spanish, you’ll become confident in the words, phrases and expressions you need to speak about the topics you care about.

Written at intermediate language that make the concepts easy to understand, this book explores the main theories, musical instruments, social components, and artists that made this wonderful genre.

But that’s not all!

Included with your text we have created an accompanying playlist to guide you through each phase and genre of rock’n’roll so that you can rock while improving your Spanish vocabulary and comprehension. After this, you will be able to speak to your friends about the genres you love.

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • Twelve sections written at intermediate level, so you can learn about rock’n’roll without the struggle of reading an academic text.
  • Helpful chapter summaries at the beginning of each chapter to help you understand the text.
  • Chapters that are carefully written to be accessible for intermediate learners (CEFR B1-B2), so you can read purposively, at your level.
  • Over 35 hours of listening time with our rock’n’roll playlist;
  • Word lists with English definitions in every chapter, so you can get instant translations of any difficult words. This means you can focus on enjoying the text rather than wasting time in a dictionary.(Kindle and Paperback only)

The chapters are written in Castilian Spanish. However, since the text uses mostly “neutral” Spanish, you’ll have plenty to learn, whether you’re learning the Spanish of Mexico, Colombia, or Costa Rica.

Created by Olly Richards, language teacher and author, Rock’n’Roll in Simple Spanish gives you an experience in real Spanish that you won’t find anywhere else. You’ll be better prepared for using Spanish in the real world, speak with more confidence, and take a giant leap towards fluency in Spanish!

“[Olly’s] techniques have made a world of difference. I was able to learn more in 9 months with his techniques than I did in the 6+ years in school.” (Courtney Baird, successful language learner)
