How To Learn Spanish Fast
7 Tips for Learning Spanish
by Neal Walters
Free Online Lessons
1) Look for free online lessons such as the ones we offer at our new SpanishLearningCentre.com site. The link is at the bottom of this article. You can join other beginners and experience our lessons, including the mp3 audios provided.
Use Your Commuting Time
2) Some people spend as many as 10 hours a week commuting to work. Instead of listening to the radio, try an MP3 or Audio/CD course in your car. Be sure and say the words aloud, even if you are alone in your car; it may look silly to others, but you will learn faster.
Carry Flashcards
3) Don't waste time standing in line or waiting on people. Instead, create your own flashcards on 3x5 notescards. Carry 25 or so with you, and review them several times per day.
Invest in a Spanish/English Dictionary
4) It really helps to have a good book (with a Spanish/English dictionary in the back). Not everyone learns best with audios; many students need to see and read the words for them to sink into their brains. Books will fill in gaps, such as grammar, and provide a quick reference when you need to look up a word or phrase.
Language Software for Your Computer
5) Use language software on your computer. Most people enjoy the multimedia aspect and the immediate feedback. The computer is typically a patient trainer; it will allow you to click the same word dozens of times without tiring.
Join a Spanish Speaking Club
6) Join a Spanish club or class. Maybe your local high-schools or colleges have continuing or "fun" educations classes like languages. The classes are often $25 or less, and you have the benefit of learning with others, and getting feedback from a teacher.
Vacation to a Spanish Speaking Country
7) If you get a chance, visit a Spanish-speaking country, especially if you can stay in the home of a family. You will learn so much more than the typical tourist/hotel experience. The site-seeing, museums, culture and foods will all help you learn your new language.
