Mike,
What you say is common sense, however, common sense is not easy to find when it comes to languages. I totally welcome and agree with your approach and feel the resources available right now are terrific for any learner.
Everything you suggest seems like the perfect complement to any systematic language program. In my years of experience as a teacher I have never seen a single person learn a language on their own.

Why? Linguistic research shows that language learning requires interaction, and trial and error primarily. For that reason, no matter how hard you study on your own, without interaction it is unlikely to rise above a basic beginning level.

Having said that, with someone to interact with, what you suggest is simply terrific and it can boost a person’s Spanish to the next level. I have been using most of those ideas you suggest for a long time now and the results are simple terrific!
Congratulations and keep up the good work.

Hey Julio,
Thanks for your detailed and comprehensive comment and your endorsement of my recommendations. I could not agree more about the interaction. I learnt more in 20 minutes chatting to a real Spanish person than I did in the 20 days of study I had done up to that point. Trial and error is the key
Thanks and I appreciate your input

Hey Micheal,
Great to see your motivation, I am really getting motivated on seeing you.
Really we need goals in our life, to keep the life excited. There is nothing fulfilling like achieving a goal, the tougher it is the sweeter is the result.
gracias,

I’ll add my two cents here. I guess, to lead a conversation, atleast you need some base. For e.g. If I am a native English speaker and I got to Spain, then to encourage people to talk with me in Spanish, I would need to have a base as Mike has done in 33 days of his study. So in 33 days he got the knowledge and now he has a platform where he can start interactions. Atleast this has been my realisation, the challange is to get the breakthrough, i.e. basic vocabulary and sentence formation.

Indeed. I agree with you and Mike. But it all begins with interaction.That is the key.

Hope your new year resolutions are coming along nicely. For me I hope it is not too late to set my goals
