relearn spanish

I was always afraid that I had complete forgotten my Spanish and would never be able to relearn it. Well I am happy to say I was wrong. At my current job, I work with children with autism. This past week I worked with a boy, who’s name only speaks Spanish. The first day my Spanish was quite terrible. But by the end of the week the nanny stated that my Spanish had greatly improved! I was also complemented on my Spanish by another person! I don’t remember the last time someone complemented by Spanish! I was so excited. If only one week of practice did that, there is still hope for me!

I grew up speaking Spanish. My nanny only spoke Spanish. Now, while I could get by with my Spanish, I am definitely not a fluent Spanish speaker. I was thinking about taking a Spanish class but don’t think they would help me much. I did help with conversational Spanish. I am pretty good at understanding Spanish, just not speaking it. I haven’t seen any class that I think would help.
