This is not going well. 3 years ago

In fact, I’ve not even tried yet. Perhaps I should buy a book, or a CD to help?

Some of the...

CDs can be quite good. I’ve got some French CDs that are really easy to use… which reminds me, I should get them out again.

Finding the time...

is also the problem. Maybe I should get some headphones, and go to sleep listening to it?

Do you have...

a CD player in your car? (Assuming that you have a car.)

You could play them in the background, whilst you’re at home…

Good ideas.

A CD it is then.

regular classes?

I’ve noticed that regular conversation classes, for languages, work pretty well. if you don’t have this time and money to spend, however, CDs are a good option—if you discipline yourself to practice it, of course :)

Time is the main problem.

Discipline could also be a factor ;)

hehe, I know what you mean.

but I guess this discipline thing depends on how much you want/need to learn it. stop procrastinating was a long time goal of mine, and I was only done with it when I needed to (no time for anything :) ). if you want to live in Spain, establish some goals with time associated (say, live in Spain by the end of next year), and then you’ll hurry up to learn the language :)

whatever the way you find out to learn it, good luck, and good studies! :)
