I just got one for my birthday and I would some day like to get the My Spanish Coach game. I can’t afford Rosetta Stone, but maybe this will learn me a little :o)

I understand almost everything that is said to me, but when it’s my turn to talk, I get all jumbly. It’s like I can let my brain go soft when someone else is speaking and let it go on autopilot, it just makes sense. When I speak, I have to figure out what I want to say, then translate it into sound in my brain (I never really learned how to read or write it very well- I learned on the streets, not in school) and once I get the sounds right, I have to say them out loud. I usually get my point across, but sometimes not very well.
I can’t go abroad right now, but I often work with migrant farmworkers, so I am immersed.
Maybe it’s a confidence thing.

I’ve one year of training under my belt, and I love the language so far. I hope to increase my knowledge.

getting wayyyyy better just in the month or so that I’ve been in Panama. Plus the fact that I’ve been chilling with a guy that knows a lot of English and we’ve been teaching each other. I speak spanish and he speaks english. =]

I found a great site (SpanishDict.com) that has FREE online Spanish lessons. Most of what I’ve seen on the lessons has been review for me so far, but I have learned a little, and it’s always good to review! I’m really excited about finding this website and going through all the lessons.



O's Tips... 3 months ago

O Magazine recommended practicing for 30 minutes a day and learning 20 new vocab words a week if you’re not able to immerse yourself in a spanish-speaking country at the moment… I think I’ll try that soon.

I took spanish 1 and got an A in the class. Now I can speak spanish much better with my hispanic grandparents. I’m still not quite fluent yet. I’ll be taking Spanish II this year though!

I already know French and English, so why stop there? I already understand 60% of the spanish language, now I just need more practice to speak it fluently. I recently had a full conversation in spanish with a guy from mexico sitting next to me on an airplane on the way to Los Angeles. I wasn’t that terrible…
So I guess I’m on my way to becoming trilingual…
