Gritty Spanish

Enjoying this app! It does a great job of helping with listening. Conversations are interesting. I’m still in the “basics” or first set of lessons…there’s a lot here to learn. The only criticism I have, is that some of the speech is really slow in the basics lessons. I skipped ahead to the end result and wow…it speeds up!

After realizing how crazy expensive this program is, I tried to delete my account. However it won’t let me, it simply says “server error”. Whatever. Don’t waste your time.

Gritty Spanish is a user-friendly and comprehensive App for learning the Spanish language. These short stories put you in real life situations where people from various spanish-speaking countries are using formal and informal words, phrases, and even profanity, to communicate. Real Life Spanish. Gritty Spanish is a terrific way to help train your ear to understand Spanish outside of your spanish class, or away from your slow-talking spanish tutor. I prefer to hear the language in normal speed, which is pretty fast, but Gritty Spanish gives you the option of listening at 30% slower. And now, with the Gritty Spanish App, which I have on my iPad Mini, and iPhone, I can give my ear a workout anytime I want. Plus, after you listen to (and read in Spanish and English) the stories, there are explanations of the words and phrases and grammar rules. As I said—Gritty Spanish is Comprehensive and User-friendly. Buena Suerte, mis Amigos.

The app and contact for what you get is just OK. If you can get a deal for 100 bucks then it’s OK. It’s one of the few places where you Can Get Street Spanish. However I’m left to think that the author either is not formally educated in both English or Spanish or I’m not sure what the deal is. There are a ton of typos in English in the first lesson and there’s a lot of subjects presented without context. For example, in the first lesson, they introduced direct object and indirect object pronouns. A solidly, intermediate, upper intermediate topic… And it’s not really particularly presented that well. However, for the real world, Spanish, that you do get, that you’re not going to get another books, this makes it worth it, despite the many grammatical errors, subjects presented without contexts, etc. the Street Spanish that you would need to know if you Latin America is important. Overall, I think this is a great adjunct if you are intermediate or upper intermediate. This is definitely not a beginners resource.

Love the app and the content. Had a technical question and their support got back to me within minutes!

This app is not good for beginners. What they call “beginners “ is actually good for me… I have been studying Spanish for 2 years. I find it frustrating that the computer keeps making me prove i am not a computer ( typing in letters/numbers) between each lesson… I have to keep logging in and starting over 😡. I do enjoy the audio stories and quizzes.

Best learning app comes with a lot of info but easy to understand how it’s applied

You have to sign up before you can even see the first screen. Talk about high friction! Not doing it for now.

.It seems like we have to buy each level individually and each of them are around $30 or more. It is very expensive for an app☹️!! Is there a bundle that I can buy all of them with a great discount? Thank a lot!

30-40 dollars per unit really? You do realize there are hundred of hours of great spanish learning on youtube for free. Not to say your lessons are bad in fact i would of bought them for say 5-10 dollars per unit. But you got so greedy with your high price so you got zero from me.
