I can say confidently that the absolute best way to learn spanish is to live in a spanish speaking community, even if only for a few months. I studied spanish during my entire high school career and was always just a few steps away from speaking and understanding fluently, but it took a few trips to mexico and belize to really solidify my understanding of the language. Good luck to all of you! It’s really easy once you begin to get the hang of it!
