What is the best way to learn spanish beside rosetta stone?

October 20, 2008 by Admin 

I want to learn spanish but the price of rosetta stone is too steep. I would like to know from a Spanish speaker’s point of view but others are welcome. Are their any good free alternatives?

thanks you

I think the old fashioned way is best. Take a class. Learn the basics: pronouns, conjugation, tenses. Once you have the basics down, you can teach yourself although it is easier if you are around spanish speaking people and you are brave enough to speak to them. Just keep practicing and adding to your vocabulary. I took basic spanish classes in high school, then later learned to speak fluently by conversing with other people.

    For me movies and everyday conversations that I know I’ll have to use are the best things to study.

    The movies get your ear trained to hear different accents from natives. The everyday conversations are great because you are learning exactly what you’ll be using in real life, nothing more nothing less. This really helps you cut to the chase.

    Here’s a great website that has the most common topics that people talk about and some movies to hear accents:

    You might like to look at the Spanish Language Resources on MindZeit.
    http://www.mindzeit.com/learnspeakspanishlanguageonline.php

    Most are free and include audio and/or video.

    Good luck! Kay

    Start with vocabulary around your house. Add stickers to every object that you are interested in an say it when you see it.

    That will give you vocabulary to get into spanish.
