How to learn Spanish by amoroma

"Doing it quick and intensive was the only way to make it stick with me."

How I did it: I signed up for an intensive Spanish course, and intensive it was! Four days a week for two hours, after work, from 7 to 9pm. Four weeks, total of 15 lessons. At times I was completely exhausted, and most nights, I went to bed soon after getting home. But we managed to do all times, past, present and future, and lots of other grammar stuff, and had fun doing it! We even did a karaoke session of Spanish songs. I am going to Spain for work in one month and that will be the real proof. But at the moment, I feel reasonably fluent in Spanish.

Lessons & tips: The most important thing was that our teacher got us to talk and write
in Spanish all the time. She mostly spoke Spanish with us, from lesson one.
The fact that we learned within the course to jump in and speak was a great help. It will make it much easier in the
real world.

rather blow bubbles. LOL

I think it’s great how dedicated you were to learning and thanks for sharing. I really need to learn Spanish and want to but seeing you blow those bubbles looks more fun. :—) Hope you had a great time in Spain!
