Spanish for Living was started by a high school and college Spanish teacher with 42 years of experience and his wife. I worked with them to write, edit, and design a textbook, create flyers to advertise the courses, and develop a website to promote the company. We started with notes on yellow pads, spoke with foreign language learners and abroad travels, and developed a conversational Spanish learning system that really works.
Listening carefully to students and potential students, we moved away from the dark backgrounds for marketing and the book cover for the lighter and more open white.
