Spanish Magazines
I just love having Spanish magazines delivered to my door every month. They add a fun and interesting dimension to my learning. They are full of great articles, interesting cultural topics and fascinating insights into life in Spanish speaking countries.
The writers for magazines are a diverse bunch. You will find journalists, radio announcers, teachers, writers and anthropologists to name a few writing for Spanish audio magazines.

Puerta del Sol
Puerta del Sol is the most well known for Spanish magazines aimed at learning the language. This course is aimed more at intermediate but for the more ambitious of you I would say, 'Go for it!' Even a basic knowledge of beginners Spanish will be beneficial, if not with the written word then certainly for listening to the CD. Every month for a subscription fee you will receive a magazine with an hour long CD or cassette.
With every issue there are explanations of tricky grammatical constructions which is something I find extremely useful.
Exta study supplements and a lively discussion forum is also available.
Think Spanish (piensa en espanol) is a subscription based publication which offers various subscription options.
Every month you will recive the Spanish audio magazine with an audio CD of the articles which is great used together or seperately. (I do both to enhance my reading and listening skills). With every issue you receive a bilingual glossary for each article.
Think Spanish give the option of buying the Spanish magazine on its own as well as with the CD. My recommendation would be to use both together to get the most out of the course. A great resource for anyone learning Spanish.
Spanish Audio Books
Audibles
If you love listening while on the go then this is for you. I have trawled the internet for the best value audiobooks and I think I can say I have found it!! For a miniscule monthly subscription (under a tenner) you receive 1 audio book ready to download onto an ipod or mp3 player. There is, for a couple of pounds (or dollars) more, a subscription choice which gives you access to 2 free books per month which I think is awesome value for money. Whether you are at beginner level or more advanced then this is ideal.
You can either download books and products onto an mp3 player, stream straight from your computer or burn onto cd. Built into their program you can stop playing a title anywhere and resume listening where you left off!
While you are a member you can have yourself a saving of between 30% and 80% on other titles you wish to purchase. Other products range from authentic unabridged Spanish novels to kids learning products. Note all products are not for learning Spanish but great for lisening to the language. Not to be missed. At least 120 titles available!
