I believe that it is going to be important to find someone who can really speak Spanish and try to communicate with them on a regular basis.  Also, some people have success by looking at Spanish language television shows.

Voya try to learn as much as possible.  I concentrate on the nouns and verbs, the nouns and verbs, and the nouns verbs.  I currently can not have a normal conversation because a person who naturally speaks Spanish seem to me to be talking too fast.  I feel like saying habla mas despacio.

Yes, I have been studying a long time.  I have used CDs and books.  I must admit that there was a time in the early 2000s that my Spanish was pretty good, but just on one subject: medicine.  I am a doctor and my Hispanic patients told me that my Spanish was "pretty good".  They did not know that I only knew words pertaining to a physical examination.  Also, there has been a ten year break in my need to know Spanish, so that stopped my progress.  This time, I am using the Pimsleur system and the language seems to be easier now.

Hello, I am jbwriter.  I have been studying Spanish on my own since 1996.  However, I still am at the beginner level.  I hope interacting at this forum will help me to become a better Spanish speaker.  Thank you.
