My wife and I have friends in the DR and we are currently learning Spanish. My wife was listening to this podcast and I over heard it and I was instantly impressed. We started listening to the podcast and we were hooked! Such friendly voices and I love how we are learning how to speak like our Dominican friends. I recommend this podcast 100%! You won’t be disappointed!
