🔥 Why is Spanish so difficult and are there ways to learn it faster?
Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn Spanish. Realistically, you can gain basic Spanish fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand most expressions, have simple conversations, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and enjoyable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Spanish. After gaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Spanish tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced speakers.
🤷 How long does it take to achieve a good level of Spanish?
Some people brag about their natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Spanish will necessitate at least 600 hours of study. The amount of time can differ by a lot depending on your existing level of Spanish or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch television, try typing using your new language skills, find native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Spanish out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Spanish classes online.
🤳 Can I choose my own Spanish teacher?
In learning centers, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from the ones who already work there). Online, of course! The largest selection of approved Spanish tutors with video profiles and customer reviews is available on online language learning marketplaces like Preply.
🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?
Colleges structure classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools typically give shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
