Book Description
This is a complete strategy designed to help law enforcement professionals with little or no previous Spanish training quickly learn how to communicate in Spanish. This book actually shows students how to convert their English into Spanish, work around difficult areas of grammar, and create their own sentences faster than they ever thought possible. The book also covers interview techniques to communicate with limited language skills. The techniques were developed by Paul Kurtzweil, a deputy sheriff in Florida with over 24 years of experience. Paul learned Spanish on his own out of necessity while working in a jurisdiction with a large Spanish speaking population. During the process, Paul discovered shortcuts to learning the language and he now shares them with colleagues across the country. These techniques have already been taught to thousands of students across the United States and have received great reviews.
