Recommendation for AP Spanish Language Prep Materials or Web Site?

<p>S2's high school has added another graduation requirement (Career Tech Ed) that means he would have to
drop orchestra or AP Psych in order to take the track to AP Spanish and AP Japanese. To get around the "administration knows best" I'm thinking to have him just self-study the Spanish Language AP. He's already essentially fluent as he was in an immersion program from kinder to 8th grade and he's a straight-A student. I wondered if anyone had a recommendation for best DIY prep for this particular AP. Thank you.</p>

<p>What about just pointing him to these sites when he wants to read news and current events?</p>

<p>Also, it should not be hard for him to find native or heritage speakers to talk to in Spanish in his school or elsewhere in California.</p>

<p>Hi UCB. Well in this case I’m looking for specific training to be able to do well on the AP Spanish test. He has lots of hispanic friends and opportunities to speak Spanish. Anecdote: one of S1’s friends from soccer comes from a native speaking home so he thought he could stroll into the AP and knock it out. Oops - that didn’t go so well for him. There were culture questions and some aspects of grammar that he didn’t know. So seeking the best material that would assure success on the AP via self-study.</p>
