Brief Description: In this Virtual Conversations(R) program, you are transported to the patio of a restaurant in Mexico where Roberto, the owner, appears on the screen, greets you with a smile and actively waits for you to respond. You may ask questions about the fare or simply order from the menu. However, Roberto is aggressive and also asks questions. Expect a give-and-take conversation with him as you order beverages and a full meal with coffee and dessert. Also, expect to be called on to help a confused non-Spanish-speaking couple order their meal.

Your virtual experience will elicit the natural feelings of anxiety related to engaging a native speaker in conversation. But you will also have the satisfaction of overcoming these feelings through your encounter with this colorful Hispanic character.

There is an abundance of vocabulary related to this restaurant experience (e.g., being greeted, ordering, problem solving). To help you learn and pronounce these phrases, the Instructor allows you to:

  • See the English translations of the Spanish words and phrases
  • Record and playback your pronunciation of the words and phrases
  • Instantly and repetitively compare your pronunciation with that of the Instructor
  • Evaluate your pronunciation by means of a simple visual scale

    These are powerful self-evaluation features that allow you to train your ear and approach accent-free speech. Also, they help you to have a successful conversation with Roberto in his restaurant.
