I made it my NYR this year to learn a second language and while I picked Russian at first I switched to Spanish for a few different reasons. I’ve been using Duolingo for about 6 months now but have gotten to the point (I’m around A2 if not very early B1 fluency) where I just don’t find it very helpful on its own anymore and the new stuff I learn just doesn’t stick to my mind as good anymore.
I’d like to start incorporating other resources into my learning (which was the plan from the start) but have no idea where to start. I’ve incorporated note writing as well as flashcards into my learning as of a couple months ago, as well as trying to hold basic Spanish conversations with other people, but this is only really effective for perfecting what I’ve already studied.
To anyone who learned Spanish or really any language, do you know of any other resources for learning the language?
Gracias.
I recommend watching videos with simultaneous English and Spanish closed captions, as well as reading a dictionary that’s only in Spanish and looking up the words you don’t know. These things should help take your language understanding to the next level.
