Gente Hoy 1 Audio

[Laila Berri]

Welcometo Lngua da Gente, our series of audio podcast lessons that are produced at the University of Texas at Austin, with tremendous support from the Department of Spanish and Portuguese, the College of Liberal Arts, and COERLL, (The Center for Open Educational Resources and Language Learning). Lngua da Gente falls under the umbrella of BrazilPod, where we find all of the other UT-sponsored materials related to the learning of Portuguese.

Each audio podcast, generally between 8-12 minutes, includes the presentation of a brief dialog, a line-by-line English translation, and more in-depth analysis of the pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, and cultural content in the lesson. Discussion blogs also accompany each lesson, providing community interaction for comments and questions. In broad terms, the lessons are subdivided into three levels of difficulty: Beginning, Elementary, and Intermediate. Additionally we have a cultural show that covers current events and related social issues.

Lngua da gente is designed to provide a modular approach to language learning. That is to say, Lngua da gente can be used as a stand-alone study tool or it can be incorporated into regular organized courses. The materials are not bound to any specific textbook, and they serve for independent learners as well as students who are enrolled in language courses. All the lessons are completely independent one from another, and as such learners can study as many or as few as they desire. Generally we try to release three new lessons each week, with the end goal of providing hundreds of lessons, and fresh new ones all the time.

The homepage will always show our most recent lessons, but the library is where users can find all of the lessons that are part of Lngua da Gente. We sort the lessons in the library by level (Beginning, Elementary, Intermediate). We also package the lessons into suggested courses, which generally combines around 15-20 lessons from a given level. And finally, in the library we can also sort the lessons by general topics. Come back often, because as the total number of lessons grows, our library will continue to evolve with new ways to sort and combine the lessons.

Podcasts are an excellent way to increase exposure to Spanish. In addition to authentic podcasts on a wide range of subjects, there are podcasts specifically for language learners. For example, Buena Gente is a podcast to learn Spanish, featuring an entertaining story and targeting high-frequency structures.

Although visual clues are important to building language skills, it is also essential to dedicate time specifically to listening. Fortunately, a podcast gives language learners an opportunity to concentrate on audio input.

The Buena Gente podcast to learn Spanish is an entertaining story, and the narrative makes it easier to follow and learn. The story follows Sandra and Alejandro, two cousins who share an apartment in Guanjuato, Guanajuato, Mexico.

The 5-episode video series has subtitles in English and Spanish, as well as clear visual clues to support the language. The audio podcast and videos complement each other and let learners repeat the content in a different format.

You can find listening comprehension questions for the podcast to learn Spanish on our Buena Gente video page. Scroll down to Listening Activities for Buena Gente Season 2. These activities work equally well for the podcast.
