The Oxford Picture Dictionary: English-Spanish Edition (English and Spanish Edition) Price

I use the Oxford Picture Dictionary at least twice a week with the inmates at a county jail in Illinois. My students are adult males from 18 to 56. Some have never been to school and are illiterate in their native language as well as in English. Because my students come and go at the will of the courts I use various year one textbooks. The one consistency in my materials is the OPD. No matter what the lesson of the day, there is something in the OPD that can reinforce the lesson and give opportunity to use the language. I am a great believer in the value of interactivity in the classroom, and the OPD offers many opportunities for valuable small group, partner, and around-the-circle verbal exercises. Even when I have not specified using the OPD, I find my students leafing through it or, better yet, using the Index, to find out what I am talking about. My students love the OPD, and so do I.

Good for learning English or Spanish - Sandra G. Winston - West Chester, OH USA
I bought two of the Oxford Picture Dictionaries. One was for my husband who is trying to learn Spanish and the other for my daughter-in-law who is Mexican and is trying to learn English. They both were excited to get them for Christmas this year. The pictures seem to make the words more understandable. I actually got the recommendation to buy this dictionary from another Mexican friend of mine who is trying to learn English and it was recommended by her teacher for the class to buy.

Could not teach without this - Laura A. Carfagno - Fort Wayne In USA
This is the best book for teaching English to refugees. I have been teaching for a few years and every student that uses this book wants one for themselves. Love it, could not teach without it.
