Hi Nicola – glad to hear you’ve been enjoying it so far! Marisol has been suffering with a very painful throat and unable to record – but we’ve found someone else who’s going to do some test recordings in the next few days, so hopefully we’ll have another lesson ready for you within a week or so…:-)

Hi, I was really enjoying the course and felt that I was learning very fast, but it doesn’t look like any new sessions have been added recently. Has the course stopped now or will there be more in the future? Hopefully there is more to come?

Hi Miriam – well done for getting so far! I’m afraid we’re battling a slight problem at the moment – Marisol has got a problem with her throat and is under doctor’s orders to speak as little as possible – so we’re looking for another voice, and will have Lesson 8 up within a few days after we find a good voice… sorry for the delay!

Do you know when lesson eight will be online? I finished lesson seven a few weeks ago, so I’m really excited about accessing the next lesson

SSIS – as an aficionada of Spanish for more than 30 years, I can only say to listen listen listen to Spanish – radio, TV, tapes, CDs, MP3 downloads – kids cartoons, whatever. even if you don’t understand them meaning gradually sinks in. There is no way to learn but by application. When I first started I shut myself in a quiet room for a minimum of 1 hr per day and just listened. I took Spanish tapes in my car cassette. Given the chance I went to Spain on holidays and at one stage attended to two different Spanish classes at two different levels, in two different towns on different evenings of the week. Just listen. when you go to Spain – listen carefully as soon as you arrive – local accents do tend to differ and it can take a day or so get your ear attuned. Try your starter sentences and people are so happy that you are trying, they will always help you. I can still learn – nowadays I pick up modern colloquisisms and street slang; I will read ANYTHING in Spanish, watch Spanish DVDs – immersion is the very best way to learn – it is not just an hour a week or whatever – get stuck in – se vale la pena – its worth it.
