Get the CD edition!
I've been subscribing to this magazine for more than a year. It's really helped me with my reading. The issues are small and the articles are short. An article is usually from one to three pages in large type with glossaries in the margins.
Even though the articles are short, I will often concentrate on one article at a time, rereading it several times a day for a couple of days. When I can read the article straight through without consulting the glossary, and understand everything, I move on to the next.
Around April of last year (2004), the magazine began offering an optional audio CD. The CD contains each of the magazine articles read aloud. I
think
this is the best feature of the magazine. Now it helps me as much with my listening as it does with my reading.
Since I started getting the CD, I now listen to the article that I'm concentrating on over & over until I think I understand most of it. Only then will I read the article. I will read it until I understand it completely. Then I listen to it some more, until I'm comfortable with it.
The articles cover all sorts of topics from all around the
Spanish
speaking world: Geography, People, Environment, History, Culture. And there are regular features: recipes, crosswords, lessons.
If you're serious about learing Spanish and you're at a beginner-intermediate level (or maybe higher) you should try this magazine. The website (http://www.readspanish.com) has sample pages and audio online. I'm not sure if they sell samples or back issues, but they have a product called "Audio Guide to Places in Spain" that's fairly cheap. It's in a smaller format than the magazine, but it might help you decide if this sort of thing is right for you.

Very Good for those who've studied some Spanish
If you would like to keep your reading and listening skills up but live in a situation where you do not have frequent chances to do so in real life, this Magazine should be very helpful for you. It covers a wide range of subject materials of all Latin countries, including Spain; the vocabulary improvement with these articles is significant. One word of Caution: I do not
think
that this magazine is for a brand-new person to
Spanish
. At least one year of formal Spanish in high school or college would be advisable. I had two years of high school Spanish and two years of University level Spanish and lived the first 30 years of my life in Texas; and yet, I still find this magazine challenging while at the same time very helpful. It also makes a great and unique gift. BE SURE TO BUY THE AUDIO CD ALONG WITH THE PRINTED MAGAZINE; that is more expensive but well worth it!
¡Beuna Suerte!

Good for learning
Increasingly you need to have two or more languages. If your kids are learning
spanish
, this is helpful.
Fabulous language learning magazine!
I am a
Spanish
teacher and I use this magazine with my students. It is a fabulous magazine for all levels and all ages. It is hands down one of the best language learning supplements on the market. I recommend it to anyone looking to improve their Spanish. If you have a means to practice speaking the magazine only will benefit you. If you are not able to regularly speak or listen to the language you will certainly need the CD.
