Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and graded tasks, so research those in advance. With personal Spanish tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like instruction for beginners, etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.
🔥 Why is Spanish not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

Studying and getting feedback five hours a week you will be able to understand everyday phrases, express yourself, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of Spanish. After attaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have Spanish tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced learners.
🤷 How long does it take to master Spanish?
Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Spanish will demand at least 600 hours of practice. The required duration of time can differ by a lot depending on your available level of Spanish or proficiency in other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try more ways to think and speak in Spanish out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational Spanish classes online.

Online, you can take as few as one lesson a year, as many as several a day - and as many (or as few) as you want during any time of day, on weekdays and/or weekends.
