 * [|Spanish.about.com]**

Maintained by Gerald Erichsen, it does a rather good job of addressing some of the nuances of the Spanish language that many non-native speakers encounter. It is a good tool, especially for comparing grammatical structures.


 * [|Spanish Language & Culture with Barbar Kuzcun Nelson]**

This site has been a wonderful practice tool for many years and will allow you to test your skills with specific grammatical topics, such as preterite vs imperfect, ser vs estar, subjunctive vs indicative and more!


 * [|WordReference.com]**

Although on-line whole-text translators will NOT be permitted for use on essays or compositions (I **will** be able to tell), dictionaries will usually be allowed. WordReference, aside from having large number of definitions, allows for cross-referencing of vocabulary; the first word you come across may not be the precise word for which you're looking or may be a literal translation. There is also a very useful verb conjugator that covers all tenses. Additionally, the forums allow for inquiry of specific colloquialisms, idiomatic phrases or country-specific vocabulary and features input from many native speakers and language experts.

I should note however that for compositions and such, it is best to write as much as possible without the use of a dictionary and fill in any gaps in vocabulary afterwards. Otherwise, you will spend FAR too much time looking up every single word as you go!
