Track 1: Explanation (use, examples, common mistakes)
Track 2: Conversation (hear the words in context in a conversation, followed by analysis)
Track 3: Interesting Stuff! (a short presentation about a topic)
Track 4: Translation Challenge (you have 5 seconds to translate from Spanish to English to review what you've learnt)
