Learning Spanish

If you’re anything like me, you’ll do anything to avoid learning a language in Schools, Colleges and Universities. This isn’t because I have anything against them, it’s just that for most of us older students, we feel like we’ve done our time and don’t want to do more! So what can we do? In the past, we’ve touched on online courses and the typical phrase / “Teach Yourself Spanish” books, but what about the other methods?

Well, one method I have found completely fantastic for learning Spanish is English / American movies with Spanish sub-titles. This is a great way to have fun and learn Spanish at the same time. As the actors are speaking, you’ll recognise the Spanish words and phrases being shown and start picking up what words mean in know time. There is of course no substitute for actually holding a conversation yourself in Spanish, but if you’re just looking to understand the language and certain word meanings a little more, this is definitely the option for you!
