Which do you do first? Read the beginners course? Or do all the lessons then read the book? Or do you do it at the same time? Confused on that. Also when do you incorporate the other 2 books...the advanced and conversatonal and vocab ones?
Muchas gracias por ayudarme, es muy amable y mucho apreciado!

Ryan, what I did was print the books out and do them at the same time I did the online course. They are sectioned in the same way as the course and have many of the same words and topics. I have not heard any official information on this however. I usually did the lessons, then did the Grammar, then the Vocab. The Advanced is a separate book which is taught after the Beginners course..

It has been a while, but they appear to be located under the lesson entitled "MegaSpanish", then under "Bonus Lessons". When I first started, we could print the flash cards, but that may no longer be an option. I used the flash cards while waiting for appointments in the Dr office or waiting in the airport. It looks like you can definitely still download the Beginner's Spanish, the Grammar (or Conversation) Course and the Vocab supplement.
Buena suerte con su estudios.

I had the same issue with knowing where to start. Its easy to follow the audio course numbers, but a bit confusing as to when use the vocab, conversation and beginers spanish books.A similar thread on the Japanses course said that the Rocket Spanish team wee putting together a "read me first" section in order to explain how to use the course, but this thread was in 2008 and I can't see anything on my rockat home page

I bought the program in 2008 and it came with an instruction manual. I'm not sure if it still corresponds to the current program, but here is an excerpt:
If you’re really serious about Spanish, here’s what I recommend.
1. Listen to a lesson in the Interactive Audio Course.
2. Read the corresponding lesson in the Conversation Course.
3. Study the corresponding lesson in the Beginners Book, and do
the exercises at the end of each part.
4. Schedule at least fifteen minutes to play the Rocket Spanish
MegaVocab and MegaAudio games, or examine the supplemental
vocabulary lists in the Beginners Vocabulary Supplement.
5. Listen to the Interactive Audio Lesson one final time. Consider
how much more you now understand.
