Learn to speak Spanish fast in less than 3 months!

Hello major! How are you? Very good! A cat in half pants!

That’s all the Spanish I knew. Don’t ask me where I learned that last sentence. I don’t remember very well, but it stayed.

But this is not about how he couldn’t speak Spanish. It is about how I can speak Spanish. And how I learned in less than 3 months to speak it fluently.

Of course, we do not get ahead of ourselves.

A couple of months ago my Family introduced me to the idea of ​​traveling to Spain. Now neither of us knew Spanish, but we always loved traveling to new places. We thought we would learn all we needed to by grabbing a phrase book and listening to the locals talk.

That sounded like a good plan… for my family. I wanted to speak Spanish WITH the locals and engage in conversations with people I would probably never see again…unless we got along so well that I DID see them again! That would be the ultimate goal!

I wanted to learn Spanish as fluently as possible in less than 4 months before the trip.

Now, I knew some Spanish… since elementary school. Hello! it was all she remembered, and I’m sure that’s all 90% of students remember from their elementary education. It’s a shame we don’t have a better system to teach us the language… but that’s another story.

So I started searching the internet for a source where I could learn Spanish. Maybe a tutor could help me…so I looked that up. The tutors seemed to me, simply, very expensive. I couldn’t afford to spend much more at the time as we were saving up for the big vacation! That was the main event after all!

After looking for tutors, I got a little discouraged. Time ticked by at the relentless pace it always seems to follow. But I wouldn’t give up so easily!

I returned to the World Wide Web. There had to be something there that could help me… I mean, this was the Internet for screaming out loud! The peak of our civilization! You can find anything in this great server connection! I’m sure someone had SOME information on how to learn Spanish fast… right?

After about 3 weeks I was going to give up. After all, how was I going to learn Spanish in just over 3 months? I decided to spend one last day searching and that would be it. If I couldn’t find anything, I’d drop the stressful search and get the phrase book and pick up whatever I could while there. I figured it would at least be satisfying…I mean I’d be in Spain anyway, that was the main goal after all…see the world!

However, that last day I did find something.

He claimed that he could learn Spanish in less than 3 months. What a coincidence I thought to myself… almost exactly how long I have.

Anyway, I continued reading the lengthy sales letter, perhaps out of sheer coincidence of timing, perhaps out of desperation, or perhaps out of genuine interest. I don’t really know, but I read it.

Once again, the letter promised that I would speak Spanish in 3 months if I took the course. There were tons of compelling testimonials and letters on the page…

But as soon as my enthusiasm came, it collapsed. As I was sitting at my computer, looking at possibly one of the only things that could help me, a terrible thought occurred to me. Money. If tutors were that expensive, this would have to be completely out of my budget.

I had the idea to close the window right then and there to prevent me from getting more nervous only to be shot down for the price at the end.

But I did not. I kept reading. I read the whole page. He was excited. He was smiling. He was praying for some miracle so he could afford it. Maybe we could go to some less expensive hotels in Spain… I mean, what value can you put on knowing Spanish for a trip to Spain? Soak up the culture… talk to the locals, learn how they interact… understand them talk! It sounded like euphoria for a traveler.

Objective I did not take shortcuts. It was much cheaper than I thought it would be.

So I bought it.

So I studied and studied and studied. I listened and listened and listened. I even played games that had to be learned! I played and played and played. However, the most important thing is that I learned and learned and learned.

I was able to learn Spanish in 3 months. I was able to go to Spain and speak and understand almost every word they said! And when I didn’t understand, I could just ask them in Spanish to tell me what they meant!

Along the way I made some friends in Spain. It was wonderful. I remember that one of them asked me how long it had been since he spoke Spanish. Apparently he was impressed with my skills. I told him about 3 months. His jaw dropped and he told me that this was the most incredible thing he had probably ever heard from him and that he was going to go home and tell his kids about it. I laughed to myself afterwards.

In the end, Spain was a lot of fun. I made friends that I never would have been able to if I hadn’t known Spanish. I even got to teach my family a few things! They were still mostly using the phrasebook so I ended up being the translator! It was wonderful!

Not only did I have a lot of fun in Spain being able to understand and speak Spanish to the natives…but now my family and I go to a Spanish speaking country every few years!

It’s honestly one of the greatest assets I’ve ever had… being able to speak and understand a different language. Spanish is one of the largest and constantly growing languages ​​in existence.

spanish rocks! Learn to speak it!
