Otherwise, Pimsleur CDs might be of use. If she is already proficient in Spanish, but just wants to improve, I would suggest she purchase novels/newsppapers in Spanish from the college bookstore or on-line and read them.

Do any of you have suggestions for materials in any format? Most of our materials are tied directly to our curriculum (and in many cases are behind password protection). Our Spanish program doesn't make recommendations for folks who aren't in their classes, and I'd love to be able to offer suggestions to those who periodically ask us for this help. I'll take any suggestions off-list, but I'm happy to post a summary later in anyone's interested.
