here are many ways on how to speak spanish, nowadays you can learn anything you want just by a click of a button.

The internet is a fast way for anyone to learn something, be it martial arts, personal slef help techniques or whatever you want to know.

This article is about learning how to speak Spanish.
Like English, Spanish is a truly global language, but its usage varies from country to country. This doesn’t mean that a Spaniard wouldn’t understand a Mexican, or vice versa, but it is true that communication may be more difficult; not so much because of grammar, but because of vocabulary.

The grammar is significantly different, regarding the use of tense and aspect, but somehow communication remains fluid.

Vocabulary is a different issue, however. You can surmise what a speaker means if you know the lexicon, no matter what tense that person uses. If you simply don’t know what a word means, the guess is more difficult, and you may misunderstand or not make sense at all of what that speaker has said.
Apparently it is a  little uncommon to be studying Spanish in an internet café in a  Spanish speaking country; I guess I missed the memo.

When I decide to learn Spanish on line I did a search and was quickly inundated with thousands of sights most of which ended up being irrelevant. However after a frustrating afternoon of trying to figure out which sites were actually helpful I came across one that seems to know what it is talking about and provides a wealth of information for free.

Of course its ultimate goal is to sell you a product the free information is quite extensive and very well explained. There are numerous very good examples that are well explained and following the lessons there are free quizzes to test your knowledge.
To truly learn Spanish fast and well a nice combination of all the above mentioned methods would be nice.

To live in the country, listen to tapes and music, read books, use software, and speak nothing but the language would be ideal and probably very successful. Unfortunately no one really has the time this would entail so we must instead settle for a long, drawn out, frustrating process.
According to the research, most people experience a general improvement in memory from studying a language. Research has also demonstrated that you can halt age-related decline in mental function by learning a new language. Tuck that little tip away for later in life, or better yet, why not start learning a new language today?

Have you been thinking about learning some simple Spanish phrases for communicating better with your family and friends or even your spouse? With Spanish being a major language throughout the world, it can be very beneficial to know some basic Spanish phrases. By learning some simple phrases in Spanish, this will help you communicate and understand the Spanish language a little easier. Here are four effective methods on how to learn some simple Spanish phrases.

First of all, you can start out by learning simple Spanish phrases with flashcards. They will help you go from Spanish to English or English to Spanish. You should be able to find all kinds of Spanish flashcards on the internet or at your local department stores. At first look for some simple flashcard games to learn Spanish and then work you way up to more complex levels. You can even include your family to play along with the flashcard games.

Secondly, another source that can help you learn some simple Spanish words and phrases is in a variety of travel books. Just go to your local travel agent or book store and pick up a few of the books that talk about Spanish destinations. You should be able to find several useful Spanish phrases throughout these books that can help you learn to speak Spanish. Also, remember to practice as much as possible with these phrases because this is a good method to gain knowledge and maintain what you have already learned.

Another method for learning simple Spanish phrases is to search for Spanish courses on the internet. You will find plenty of courses online. As you are studying these Spanish online courses, be sure to write down all on the common phrases so you can study them at your own pace. You might want to bookmark the websites that you find useful so you can get into the sites easier the next time you study the lessons. Also, make sure you listen to the audio lessons so you can learn how to speak the Spanish phrases properly.

Finally, the last effective method on how to learn simple Spanish phrases is to subscribe to Spanish newsletters. As you will discover there are several newsletters that you can join online which can help you learn the Spanish vocabulary and most of them are free. Most of the newsletters only require that you give them your name and email address. Over time you should be able to learn some Spanish words from these monthly newsletters.

Buena Suerte (Good Luck) with your new found romantic language.

I don’t exactly know what the real fuss with Learning Spanish is about. It appears a huge economic boom for Spain has been predicted and we might all need to know how to converse with Spaniards. Regardless of that Spanish seems to be a very popular language amongst a lot of young adults. Very recently someone asked me, “What should I do if I want to learn Spanish online?” This is what I told them.

Before you attempt to learn Spanish online you must be prepared for the substantial cost of software programs. There are a lot of programs that teach people how to speak Spanish interactively. This means that you can learn how to speak the language without the need for a tutor. But these programs are rather expensive even though they are very effective tools of learning.

However, if you do decide to learn Spanish my advice would be to get the Visual Link Conversational Spanish CD course. This software will be fun; easy and basic if you are used to learning in a complicated environment. This course teaches you to construct meaningful sentences; the structure of sentences and vocabulary.

Another tutorial program that offers Spanish lessons is Rocket Spanish. With This interactive tutorial you get to have audio lessons, three of them, as well as lessons to better your understanding of Spanish Culture. Rocket Spanish offers a six day learning course, after which you are then requested to buy or sign up for the full course. IF then you can afford to buy or sign up it is fine, but it is a good foundational learning option.

Learning Spanish online can be free if you’re serious enough to search for Spanish websites where Spanish is taught for free. On these websites you can get translations in English or any other popular language. Apart from these Spanish websites there is a lot of information on Spanish as a language that can be useful.

But learning Spanish online is not enough if you don’t practice. You will have to find someone to learn Spanish with or better still find a person from Spain to polish it up. But nothing actually beats going to Spain for a holiday, that way you will learn faster.

Spanish is one of the two most popular languages in South America, the other being Portuguese. Almost 90% of South American population speaks Spanish and it is the official language of many South American countries. Spanish is a popular language mostly because of South America’s historic connection with Spain. Spanish language schools are becoming increasingly popular because it is presently a very lucrative language to learn. Besides South America, Spanish is spoken in all the leading continents. It is also spoken in Philippines in Asia, in Africa and of course in Europe.

The Spanish language is one of the most popular and simple foreign languages for those who already know English. The phonetics of the Spanish language is same as English, which makes it comparatively simpler to learn. With economic growth and expansion of South American countries, Spanish language schools are becoming increasingly popular.  Enrolment in Spanish language schools increased with many South American countries signing the North America Free Trade Economy (NAFTA). The signing of this treaty leads to better trade relations between these countries and the Spanish language schools have thus become very important to the business world.

Knowing a foreign language can give people an edge over their peers in the work place and people realise that learning Spanish can be of great advantage in their professions. People are queuing up for Spanish schools in their own countries but the best way to learn this language would be by enrolling in Spanish language schools situated in a Spanish speaking country. One can learn Spanish in South American countries like Argentina, Peru, Chile or Patagonia through the Spanish school ‘Latin Immersion’. Latin Immersion is a Spanish language school that provides you with the opportunity to study Spanish while experiencing the South American culture.

Latin Immersion offers Spanish courses in 12 group levels. The initial eight levels concentrate on the basic elements of the Spanish language like vocabulary, pronunciation, conversation skills and grammar. These eight levels can teach you adequate Spanish for practical purpose. The next four levels concentrate on advanced reading, conversation and writing. It takes two weeks to complete a single level of Spanish language under the Spanish language school, Latin immersion. One must pass a written test to attend the next level.

The classes are generally very small with a maximum of six students per class. Every student gets proper attention from the teacher because of the class’s small size. Unlike other Spanish schools, this school also provides the facility of individual instruction for a student if they so desire. Classes are held in two batches, morning and afternoon, and a person may join any of them. At times people need to learn Spanish for their specific profession. For instance, a doctor who wants to practise in a Spanish speaking country must know more about medical terms. This Spanish language school provides special courses for their students with specific interests. Private courses are offered in law, business, social services, and other fields.

A single course consists of 20 hours of class time, which provides one with enough lessons and at the same time leaves enough time for practice. Since, you will be in a Spanish speaking country you can practise your language skills with the local people. Communicating with the local people in cafes, shops and restaurants can help you improve your spoken Spanish as well as your Spanish listening and understanding skills. Studying at this Spanish language school will result in a wholesome learning of the language.

Spanish is spoken with different accents in different places if you choose the Argentina-Chile combination special Spanish learning programme, you can study in Buenos Aires as well as Santiago. You can experience different cultures and accents through the change of place but your studies shall not be affected. You can also choose to study in Chile, Peru and Argentina together if you enjoy travelling and want to experience a wide variety of cultures along with studying Spanish. Very few Spanish schools offer the type of special programmes, which Latin Immersion does. 

There are many special courses like DELE Exam Preparation, which help students pass DELE (Diplomas de Español como Lengua Extranjera). A foreigner must pass the DELE to be internationally recognised as capable of speaking and writing in Spanish. It is one of the best Spanish language schools to train you for DELE and it provides training for all three levels at reasonable rates. Latin Immersion also provides with free extra tutorial help if required. There are various other special courses like Spanish-ski and Spanish-wine, which is offered by Latin Immersion.

Latin Immersion has many activities planned for their students, which result in a rich Latin American experience. It would be unfortunate for a person to travel all the way to Latin America and not experience their culture. There are varieties of experiences one can enjoy while studying in South America like white-water rafting, salsa, festivals and many more such events. It would be a pity if a student studying in Buenos Aires left without watching their amazing theatres. Most Spanish schools do not plan outings and social events for their students but Latin Immersion does.

Latin Immersion makes your visit to South America worthwhile by taking responsibility of coordinating various activities and social events. They organise a great variety of outings like football matches in Argentina, Pablo Neruda’s house in Chile, Tango shows in Buenos Aires, Vineyard tours in Santiago, Salsa practice and regional cooking lessons. Weekend excursions to villages and coasts help the students in understanding and gaining knowledge on South American lifestyle. It is also very easy to improve fluency in Spanish while travelling. Travelling is a better way to improve fluency as compared to classroom lessons in Spanish language schools.

Latin Immersion can also arrange for you to live with a local family. You can also live in shared apartments but living in a family can help you practise in a natural surroundings. Spanish schools in South America like Latin immersion can be of great value since you can experience the South American culture and learn the Spanish language in a natural environment.

Many programs for learning a new language offer Tapes or CDs to listen to but you do not see the person speaking. To learn by simply listening to a voice is not an easy task for most learners. Seeing the speaker adds a second dimension to the learning experience and helps people to relate to the subject by relating to the person speaking.

Recalling something, you heard a person say causes your memory to react with greater ease when you can recall the face of the person speaking. The senses of hearing and seeing work together helping our minds recall what heard.

Rocket Spanish helps people learn and recall what they hear by providing an online interactive Spanish course presented by two professional instructors. The instructors bring to life the learning experiences associated with the course. Mauricio Evelampieff is the author of Rocket Spanish, which includes several different learning techniques for adult and older learners. Mauricio was born in Chile and today lives in California. Amy Waterman the second instructor was born in the United States and after several years living and working in the Andes Mountain area of Ecuador worked with Mauricio to create Rocket Spanish.

The concept of interactive learning is the key to success using Rocket Spanish. This concept is the product of Amy’s years of experience. Mauricio wrote the program. He continues to build on and improve the contents of this comprehensive Spanish course. The goal of Rocket Spanish is to guide those who purchase the course successfully toward becoming Spanish speakers who can communicate with other Spanish speakers. We learn to speak Spanish by speaking Spanish is a main concept developed in the Rocket Spanish course.

Rocket Spanish presents Spanish through the voices of Amy and Mauricio. Learners learn to model their approach to Spanish dialogue. Embedded audio is present in the online presentations offered by the two instructors. Those taking the course lessons see and hear Mauricio and Amy as they present words, phrases and sentences or carry on conversation in English and Spanish. Those taking the course have Ebooks filled with grammar lessons, usable words and phrases, vocabulary exercises and other helpful educational tools.

Together Mauricio and Amy guide learners from lesson one to lesson thirty-one and beyond through follow-up newsletters which include a new free lesson. The Rocket Spanish program includes MegaVocab and MegaAudio so learners are always using their eyes and ears to achieve their personal goal of learning to speak Spanish. Those who purchase the Rocket Spanish course succeed when they spend time practicing the lessons presented along the way. The thirty or so minutes spent with the instructors online will not cause participants to become Spanish speakers. The learners need to practice what they learn by speaking the Spanish taught in each lesson. Teachers teach and learners learn only when they put into practice the lessons taught.

I recommend you to buy Rocket Spanish now, but if you are not sure at this time, request the free six lesson mini-course and experience the joy that comes with learning to speak Spanish. Invite someone to join you in a new adventure!

I was extremely impressed with the Rocket Spanish lanaguage course by Maurico Evlampieff. It is, in my opinion, the fastest and easiest course on the market. It is also the least expensive of the ones I have seen.

It doesn’t matter what level you are currently at (beginner, intermediate, or advanced), Rocket Spanish is packed full of quality step-by-step audio lessons, over 500 pages of written lessons, games and other resources to rapidly advance your learning no matter what your level…

After all, I think learning to speak another language is a lot like learning to play an instrument. If you were learning the guitar for instance, the best way to improve your playing would be to imitate and play in time with professional guitar players. The same is true with learning Spanish. It shows you how to listen to and speak lots of Spanish words and phrases from native Spanish speakers, to really power-up your Spanish learning and fluency.

To help you do this, Rocket Spanish contains over 12 hours of interactive lessons, a conversation course book, beginner and advanced grammar books (also audio supported) taking you on a journey from beginner to advanced in your Spanish speaking. That includes over 500 pages, 414 exercises, and my hugely popular software learning games.

Here’s how it works:

You start off by selecting what you want to be tested on. You practice vocabulary from any of the chapters from either the Beginners or Advanced Grammar Books, OR you can choose one of the 23 specialized topics, which include “Family,” “The Classroom,” “The Weather,” and more. When you have selected what you want to be tested on, press ‘Start’ and you will be shown a picture and the English word. Just select the corresponding Spanish word from the 4 options given. If you get it right first time, then you get the maximum points. You can continue guessing, with one less point for every incorrect answer, until you get the right answer.

With a database of over 2,000 words you will be recognizing and memorizing words and phrases like wildfire! What’s more … you can add 100s of your OWN words and pictures, including any specialized vocabulary list that you need to know! So whether you are at school or working for a business that exports overseas, it is still just as effective.

and, it is all laid out in a step-by-step easy to follow manner that even a 12 year old can understand.

You might be starting with the simple stuff like Hola and Gracias but before you know it you will be reading, understanding and speaking Spanish como un experto (like an expert)!

There is a free 6 day example course available, as well as a $99 download. If you are really serious about it though, you can download a $299.95 cd version to be delivered to your home. I think it’s worth a try plus there’s a 60 day money back guarantee so if your not learning anything you can always send it back. Good luck…

Learning a language, or any new skill, is as much about self reflection as it is any other process. Only through self-reflection can one know what works, what doesn’t work, and what motivates and doesn’t motivate. I thought I’d write, based on my own self-reflection, about how I would learn Spanish, knowing what I know now, if I could do it all again.

When I say ‘learn’ I’m referring to becoming conversational in the language (being able to comfortably express yourself on just about every non-technical topic).I’m going on the assumption that I wouldn’t have the opportunity to visit a Spanish speaking country so this would all be home-based, independent learning. Of course the steps herein may not be to your style but if you’re fairly lazy and detest verb tables and formal learning in general then you may find them useful.

Warning: Note that I don’t include writing exercises. I don’t have too much desire to practise my writing and with Spanish I don’t believe too much practise is necessary. The written language isn’t a million miles away from the spoken language. 

It’s no easy task learning a language so it’s wise to know what you’re getting yourself into before hand. Unrealistic expectations are a major cause of loss of motivation. Therefore if we go with the Foreign Service Institute’s estimate of 1000 hours to become conversant in Spanish we can begin to map out some realistic expectations. Before we continue I’d like to say that I don’t think learning any language is simply a 1000+ hour venture. I believe it’s a life long journey that after X amount of hours becomes an enjoyable road that you continue to walk down and reconstruct time and time again. I say X because we are all different when it comes to gleaning pleasure from language learning. Some love the beginning stages of wading through new and shiny grammar and others prefer the pleasure that comes later on like reading or speaking. I’m the latter. And because of this you’ll notice as you read this article that the first 12 months are quite rigid whereas the next 12 months are much more relaxed and I concentrate on doing only what I enjoy. I seem to need this rigid planning to keep myself on track while I’m trooping through what I consider to be the less enjoyable beginning stages of language learning.

So, let’s pretend that I have accepted my fate and I’m ready and willing to commit to 1000 hours. Do I simply expose myself to 1000 hours of Spanish, regardless of the method, and wait for the magic to happen? Some say yes but I’m not so sure. I agree that time is the number one factor in language learning but I also believe the method you use does have an influence on your progress. How can you possibly be as effective with a course that bores you to death compared to one that you find stimulating? And how can you guarantee to stick at the task if the course you use is like watching teeth grow?

Now, we have two distinct camps (I’m sure there are many more than two actually) in language learning. That of speaking early on in the learning process or delaying speech until the latter stages. On the one side Stephen Krashen’s input hypothesis states that all a person really needs to do to learn a language is to expose themselves to constant comprehensible input without speaking. Krashen argues that comprehensible input means stimuli such as audio dialogue or reading that is only marginally above the ability of the learner so that they can understand most of what is being said but are still stretching themselves. Krashen claims that only after massive comprehensible input can one begin to produce comprehensible output. Krashen also states, rather appealingly, that language acquisition is not about learning grammar rules through books but about internalising grammar rules by observing and understanding the language in its natural context (T.V., books, conversation). I tend to agree with him to a degree on this but I see no harm in referring to grammar books if you’re curious about particular aspects of the language.

On the other end of the spectrum we have the likes of Alexander Arguelles who claims that speaking from the outset, through a method known as ‘shadowing’ amongst others, begins the process of automated speech which will help you get to a conversational level quicker. Shadowing is when you simply listen to a dialogue and repeat what the speaker has said as soon as they say it while trying to understand what is being said. Ideally you should be reading the transcript in English or Spanish at the same time to aid understanding. Which camp to go with? 

Well since I like tangible results (i.e. things I can see, feel, hear now) I’m more inclined to go with speaking early on. I can’t say that this is more effective as I’ve never delayed speech before but it suits me. I do plan on trying delayed speech when I take up the Portuguese challenge before we go to Brazil but that’s a long way away so for now it’s shadowing. Right so after all that what next? Although I have my 1000 hour timeframe I haven’t said how I’d like those hours to be spread out. Since I’m fairly impatient I would like to complete them within two years. That’s around an hour and a half a day (just less actually).With a few good courses and consistent study I believe this is reasonable. 

I mentioned in this Spanish course review that I very much like a course called Assimil. The course has two levels; ‘Spanish With Ease’ and ‘Using Spanish’. With Ease has about 100 dialogues, contains about 2,500 words, and includes a huge array of grammar points as well as various forms of the subjunctive that most ‘advanced’ course don’t even touch upon. The ‘Using’ course, with about 54 dialogues, by my very rough estimation could contain between 2,000 and 3,000 new words, including many more grammar points. So combining these courses you’ll be looking at a vocabulary of about 5,000 words and a very good handle on grammar and common idioms. So with Assimil as my first stop I would begin working through the courses as stated in the instructions only I would do two lessons per day rather than one and I would place more emphasis on repeatedly shadowing the dialogues and listening out for pronunciation nuances. I would remember to read the grammar points each day.

That’s about an a hour day. I’d have a review session of about 15 minutes every day where I would re-listen to the dialogues I’ve already studied. I would do the first lesson in the morning, the second after work and the review before bed.  That’s an hour and a fifteen minutes a day. We need an hour and a half everyday to be done in two years but I’ll talk about the extra fifteen minutes a little later on. 

At this rate I would have finished both Assimil, passive and active phase, after about 5 months (I’ve added a little more time for unforeseen interruptions). Now that we’ve ‘completed’ Assimil we would be mad to put it a side. Although we’ll know a good portion of the stuff in there we won’t have it down pat so I’d put a thirty minute window aside every day to re-shadow all the audios until I had them ingrained. This would take another seven months or so. Right now we would have clocked up around 290 (give or take) hours just on Assimil alone but believe me it’ll be worth it.

As I mentioned  during the first five months I’d have an extra 15 minutes to spare. My suggestion would be to listen to some beginner podcasts . Some good free beginner podcasts are Notes in Spanish and Lingq Spanish. I would just lie back and listen away. Listening comprehension is arguably the most difficult aspect of language learning so I would make sure to put at least 15 minutes a day aside specifically for that. Once I’ve gone through the beginner podcasts I’d start going through their intermediate podcasts. After 12 months you will have clocked up a whopping 90 hours from podcasts alone. That’s 390 hours including the mileage clocked up with Assimil. But that still leaves us with 45 minutes a day to play with after the initial five month stint with Assimil.

This is where, for me, language learning becomes much more enjoyable. This method is an adapted version of the Listen-Reading system described here (L-R). Firstly I would find an unabridged audiobook in the target language (Spanish); lets say the first Harry Potter book (that’s right I love the Pott’s!). Then I would get the book in both Spanish and English. I would then, for 45 minutes each day, listen to the audiobook while reading the English text simultaneously. So whatever the Spaniard is saying you’re reading the equivalent in English. I would essentially be matching the English words with the Spanish sounds. This will be reasonably tough at first but since I would have already spent 6 months learning Spanish I would get used to it fairly quickly. Since the audiobook is 8 hours long it would take me 11 days. Once I’ve done this I’d do it again. Another 11 days.

The truth is I wouldn’t be limited to Harry Potter. As long as you can get an unabridged audiobook in Spanish and the text in both languages and you enjoy the book you’ll be fine. It just so happens I really like Harry Potter. Once I’ve done this two or three times with the English text it would be time to do the same with the Spanish text. Just once through with the Spanish text should suffice. I quite enjoy this part of it. It offers huge gains to your reading ability and a great confidence booster when you find yourself understanding the majority of the story without any English assistance.

Now do this with another book. I’ve done it with Harry Potter, Angels and Demons, and Dejado Atras with great success. Once I would have completed three books or so I would have done around 160 hours and it would have taken seven months (making allowances for any unforeseeable interruptions). In all that makes about 540 hours  in 12 months.

The beauty of the 13 month mark is that my reading skills will be seriously up to scratch, my listen skills should be more than useful, and my speaking ability should be decent but possibly a little weaker than the other two skills. All in all I’d be about the mid-intermediate range (whatever that is). It is at this point where I think I’ll be beyond formal courses and I’ll need to discover exactly what it is that I enjoy doing in my mother tongue that I could just as easily do in my target language.

Whilst I don’t think the studying should be as structured I should exercise each of the main areas as much as possible.

For my listening skills I would do the following:

1) Listen to advanced podcasts.

2) Listen attentively to Spanish music.

3) Watch Spanish DVDs (with the Spanish subtitles on if comprehension is hard going).

4) I would then extract the audios from the DVDs and listen to them wherever I go.

5) If the DVD audio is still particularly difficult I would simply slow it down using the speed option on my mp3 player.

Reading improvement:

1) Choose a list of books I’ve always wanted to read and go through them.

2) Change my facebook page, mobile phone software, and whatever else I can to Spanish.

3) All the internet searches I would ordinarily do in English I would do in Spanish.

Speaking improvement:

1) Find a Spanish conversation partner.

2) Shadow audiobooks I enjoy.

3) Speaking to myself all the time. In fact this should be done from day one.

And hey presto! One and a half hours a day of enjoying myself for another 12 months and I’m well on my way to being conversational.

Below you’ll find a simple table of how I would arrange my first 12 months.

Since the influx of Spanish speaking natives into the United States, there has been a tremendous increase in the number of websites offering lessons in Spanish. Many of these offerings are ‘how to programs’ promising to teach people, how to speak Spanish. Some program offer guarantees as though the success of the program is dependent upon the program and not upon the learner.

Regardless of the program a one chooses full participation and hours of practice are the only way to achieve success. Most programs offer a set of tapes or CDs and in some cases, a booklet is part of the program, often a PDF file made available once you make payment online. Many of the programs are what teachers call a ‘parrot program’ because the lessons consist of mimicking the sounds of words heard on the tapes or CDs repeatedly.

Many of the programs present simple phrases and sentences, which can be part of a brief conversation. Questions and answers first given in English then repeated in Spanish are those used in multiple situations. Far intense the program may provide questions such as, Where, is the bus stop? Where is the super market? How old are you? What is the price for coffee and similar simple questions? The tape/CD provides the questions and answers in English then in Spanish asking you to repeat the Spanish. Then it is up to you to practice the Spanish sentences repeatedly.

This is all right and it is one way to learn how to speak a limited number of Spanish words, phrases and sentences. However, the Spanish language is much more than this. While people learn each of the lessons and over time, speak them with ease. They do not know how to speak Spanish, beyond the words, phrases sentences within the course. Those serious about learning seem to want more than limited knowledge of Spanish. Knowing how to speak Spanish is good, but knowing and comprehending the written and spoken word is better.

Rocket Spanish offers a better way to learn to Spanish. The course is comparable to courses taught in a high school or college classrooms. The Rocket Spanish course teaches students to speak, read, write and comprehend the meaning of words, phrases and sentences. Students learn to appreciate the beauty of the language as they work through the thirty-one lessons at their own pace. It takes work and practice of course, but with the Rocket Spanish course, students learn more than, how to speak Spanish.

The Rocket Spanish course provides, MegaAudio on Tapes or CDs, a Booklet containing all the lessons, over 250 Flash cards, Pictures, a Mega-vocabulary list and Games to help hold your interest, an online Forum and Follow-up, which includes newsletters from the instructors include a free lesson. The best part is the first six lessons are free and the first lesson arrives shortly after you request them online. Online lessons are much like a computer classroom. Real success rests with students but the help and support they need is part of the Rocket Spanish Course.
