Praat Tutorials (in Spanish)

I've prepared a series of tutorials on Praat (in Spanish) which I use in workshops I teach. They're published under the Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 United States License, so you can freely use them for all non-commercial purposes. You can also adapt them to your own particular uses, so if you want to translate them into another language, for example, or use the screen shots for your own tutorial, go right ahead.
