Guest useless Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 I am interested in learning to communicate verbally in Spanish. However, I do not care about reading or writing the language. Do any of you have experience with an online program or one that can be learned at home? Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Rosetta Stone will help you a lot.. It's a bit expensive though.. Quote
TotallyOz Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Both the Rosetta Stone and the Pimsleur is great. Quote
Members JKane Posted October 9, 2013 Members Posted October 9, 2013 Both the Rosetta Stone and the Pimsleur is great. FREE version is called DuoLingo. Quote
Guest Hoover42 Posted October 9, 2013 Posted October 9, 2013 FREE version is called DuoLingo. I love Pimsleur, but I've been using DuoLingo lately and I find it to be very good. Quote
Members MsGuy Posted October 10, 2013 Members Posted October 10, 2013 Total immersion method is actually the most efficient way to learn conversational Spanish. Check into a good bath house in Barcelona and don't come out for 6 weeks. JKane, Lucky, lookin and 1 other 4 Quote
Members Lucky Posted November 6, 2013 Members Posted November 6, 2013 Say useless, how are the conversational Spanish lessons coming along? Muy bien, yo espero. I took Conversational Spanish 4 times, repeating the entry level class each time. I can get by in Spanish, but it's rather laughable. Once upon a time, while walking with a new friend in Acapulco, he told me that my Spanish was awful. But, I replied, it was good enough to get you to my hotel room! We both laughed, and he agreed that I was right. I realize that you may not have started yet, so I posted just to see, and to encourage you to follow through. MsGuy 1 Quote
