Customer Reviews

A useful and challenging revision course
If you're signed up for the Open University's (OU) L140 "En rumbo" course, you'll find "A bordo" an excellent preparatory revision course. For those who have completed L194 "Portales", the "A bordo" course will help to fill productively the quiet, Spanish-free months from September to February.

If you're not taking the OU courses but want to brush up and extend your basic Spanish vocabulary and grammar, "A bordo" can help.
