One star because it deserves 1st place

I have not listen to it yet but it might be to hard for me I am willing to try it because I love learning Spanish we are going to Mexico, and we only know how to speak English.

Bruh speak clearer words one star

I’m going to try this podcast out and see what it is like.I really love Spanish and I want to learn how to speak it but I’ve never seen a Spanish podcast before . I’m wondering how good it is.🧐🧐🤔. I’m going to find out how good it is,so don’t try and make it hard for me 🥷🏼🥷🏻

Hola, I have the basics bc I went to medical school in Mexico 100 years ago but I want to be a LOT better than I am now. I am thoroughly enjoying your podcast after sampling many others. What would help me and perhaps are others are two things. 1- if the woman could speak slower 2- if you can quickly spell a word sometimes. For example, I was listening to a podcast where you were discussing Tener. Along the way to say one is thirsty you used the word sed. This is not the perfect example bc I knew that word but if I didn’t I would not be certain how the word sed was spelled or even sure what the heck you were saying. All that to say a quick spelling of a new word from time to time would be helpful. Thanks guys, Paul

I’m not learning anything This is so dumb to wast my time on something I am not learning anything

While I was studying Spanish full time for nine months, Coffee Break Spanish was key in the process. It was just perfect for my commutes and I came away with a lot of good tips and lessons. Muchas gracias a todos! No soy un hablante de español perfecto pero no habría podido tenido tanto éxito sin Coffee Break Spanish!!

Excellent explanations, variety, pronunciation, manageable size lessons. I learn some English as well!!!

A couple times now traveling to Spain I’ve tried to brush up on my high school Spanish before the trip. I’ve tried other “name brand” apps but this has been the most helpful for learning how to pronounce Spanish words and learn the key words that will help for a week trip in Spain. It’s so fun to listen to! Great job! I’m hoping to continue the mental challenge even after our trip. Gracias!!

The words are exaggerated. I learn better using Duolingo and watching shows in Spanish than this. Spaniards don’t sound like this.

Mark is an amazing, thoughtful, and logical teacher. But unfortunately Cara the student ruins the podcast. I’m currently trying to rush through season 2 so I can be rid of her. She never gives the listener time to respond to Mark’s questions so I find myself having to constantly pause the podcast (lest my voice overlap with her atrocious accent). And she is always either laughing or stifling laughter, even when what is being said is not funny or intended to be funny. For example, Mark will go through the full conjugation of a verb and when Cara repeats it, you can hear her bizarrely on the verge of guffawing by the time she gets to vosotros. I wish Mark would redo the first 2 seasons of the podcast but with a better student or no student at all.

Suficiente!!!

She pronounces every word differently than Mark. Makes it incredibly hard to listen to this otherwise great podcast

love the episodes :)

I still prefer Mexico Spanish over Spain Spanish

Excellent

Wonderful!!!!

The pronunciation of c’s in Spain is ridiculous. Then to learn it comes from the copy-catting of a royal speech impediment is incredibly pretentious. And don’t get me started “bosotros”, remarkably inefficient. Latin American Spanish 10x better.

Give it a shot, this will exceed your expectations. Cool way to learn Spanish.

I love learning Spanish because mark you do AMAZING 🤩🤩🤩 at speaking Spanish. FANTASTIC job MARK

I am at a B1-B2 level of Spanish and currently on season 3. I love it. I appreciate all the work put into it. Some of it is too basic, some at perfect level and dime a bit harder- but that’s how we learn. Also this should be only one tool in the language leaning journey. The telenovela is especially fun for me- don’t know if there will be more in the future seasons. Yes, for us in the US- a Latin version would be better- but either way I can’t complain. Would like to try the premium content ( any discounts;). Thanks

I love this podcast! I love the slow pace when they speak. It’a so helpful when following along repeating everything.

This podcast is an incredible resource. Warm, well-structured, fun, and practical.

Coffee Break Spanish Four continues the story of Rory and Maria on the island of Mallorca. I really like all of the context as well as the expressions used by native speakers. The extended audio is perfect to listen to while walking my dog, and then I can review the transcript to really dig into any grammar or new expressions. Not for beginners but anyone wanting to take their Spanish to the next level past the textbooks. I’d love a season set in Latin America too (for the different accents and expressions).

This podcast is helpful if you're a beginner, but don't rely on it to teach you to become fluent in Spanish.

This has been SO HELPFUL. I have been looking for something to listen to that would challenge me but wouldn’t leave me in the dust, and this is it! Also, it isn’t boring which is pretty important and rare. Highly recommend!

Too many ads and season 2 to season 3 is a too big jump I do not understand the text in season 3 very well because of this

Super great podcast. As I got advanced in the language, I am still relaying on this podcast. Great job and thanks for your help.

Amazing really improved my Spanish. Perfect for my long drives at work. All there series are great. I’ve tried there other language series as well 😊

I love the podcast.I actually only listened to the first video but this is great.You should try this!

Hi, i love this show so much and it’s so helpful! Thank u guys Also i want to follow u guys on instagram but I can’t find ur page.. so help please 😅

Hi! I LOVE Coffee Break Spanish! I subscribe to their premium package for transcripts and bonus episodes. Recently I am trying to download new episodes and when I go to do so the app crashes and I can’t access them. Please fix!

I love this podcast so far. I’m currently on 1.15. I’ve been listening on Spotify but I really want to use the Apple Podcasts app because it’s what I prefer. I’m not sure what the problem is but when I click on “See All” to see the earlier episode of Coffee Break Spanish, my app crashes. I tried on my laptop and it says Can’t connect. Coffee Break Spanish is the only podcast that does this. If you could look into it, that would be great. Thank you :)

Learning and following along with the English rules and Spanish rules is very helpful for me as a person practicing to use my Spanish everyday. Thank you

I’ve been listening to the “travel diaries” in preparation for a visit to Spain. It’s been a great resource for polishing up my Spanish listening comprehension and grammar, especially for European Spanish (which I haven’t had any prior exposure to).

If you want a grammar lesson, this is your thing. If you want a podcast, then keep looking. :)

Let’s be real, European Spanish is only spoken as a primary language in Spain. Latino Spanish is the official language of 19 countries and that’s not even including territories like Puerto Rico. Therefore, Castellano is practically useless for those outside Europe, not to mention, the lisp is just straight up ugly sounding compared to how beautiful Latino Spanish is. Can we please get a practical version of Coffee break Spanish taught by an actual native speaker??? No offense to Mark but his Spanish isn’t perfect and he’s admitted to never even stepping foot in Latin America so how can he possibly teach both versions in this one podcast. Just make another podcast please.

Mark your lisp is really pissing me off. And i dont need to hear your intro or jingles repedeatley

This podcast is trying to teach Spanish from Spain. While it would be helpful for people in Europe, it’s terrible for people from North America or anyone wanting to go to the areas that have a lot more Spanish speakers. Many phrases in this podcast are not said at all in Central or South American Spanish speaking countries. The pronunciation is also not used in the Americas. It would be like teaching England English to people from Mexico. The wouldn’t understand the differences in a lot of words. Boot vs trunk when referring the the storage area in a vehicle. Or flashlight in America is called a torch in England. A torch in America starts fires. There are more Spanish speakers in Mexico than any other country, including Spain. And the language of Mexico is closer to the rest of Central and South America than Spain. This podcast really needs a sister podcast that teaches the most common dialect of Spanish and not the least common.

I wanted to learn Spanish so badly and I came across this. It was AMAZING! I haven’t gotten into 1.02 yet, but 1.01 was SO amazing! You should try this right now!

For an intermediate Spanish liner, you really can’t ask for anything better. I have taken four Spanish classes and listened to many podcasts. CBS is just as good as some of the best classes I have taken in regard to the overall experience and what I have learned. Plus the personalities are very likable. Keep up the good work!

I love that after talking in Spanish, they take the time to explain each sentence in English so you can put things together. When they then repeat the stories I find I am picking it up so much better. Good job!

I have been trying to learn Spanish for years, and the improvement I have seen in my Spanish after listening to these episodes cannot be matched. The recording and structure of the episodes are very clear and informative. Cannot wait for more content!

Marc is great but Caras pronunciation threw me off doesn’t really help listen to someone that doesn’t speak the language it makes beginners more difficult to learn I understand the concept of Marc having someone to learn the language at the same time as his subscribers but that doesn’t really work out it’s better to have somebody native speaking back at you

I love listening to Mark and crew’s twenty minute session to apprendar Espanol. They are just the right length to learn bits of Spanish on the fly. The vignettes are enhanced by Marks Scottish accent in English and all of the participants high energy. Me gusta!

This is my favorite. The hosts are very knowledgeable about the Spanish grammar as even as an advanced speaker I learn a lot

I enjoy Coffee Break Spanish very much. Mark, the host, is very personable, and I find his explanations easy to understand and quite helpful. Like me, Mark is excited about teaching language and culture and about learning new ones himself, so I feel I’m being guided by a kindred spirit. I purchased the premium version of seasons 3 & 4, and I’m finding the transcripts, explanatory notes and translation exercises extremely useful now in season 3; I’m sure they will be even more so in season 4, when there are no explanations at all on the free podcast.

I have listened to every episode of the podcast and most of them at least twice. The pedagogy presented my Mark is outstanding while making learning fun at the same time. The recording quality is top notch. I am not sure how this podcast could improve other than continuing to produce more episodes. Thanks so much for teaching me Spanish and teaching my wife how to speak with a Scottish accent! 😆
