Looking Back - Learn Spanish

Gratuity: Connecting the dots! 

Goal Work:   “Language is the blood of the soul into which thoughts run and out of which they grow.” --Oliver Wendell Holmes

My quest to learn Spanish has just started.  It was a delayed start because I was waiting for my department's education budget to open up and allow me to order Rosetta Stone.    I am really enjoying Rosetta Stone.  It is fun!   Although I am not quite sure it will really aid me in mastering this language, in the meantime I figure it will help to delay the loss of a few brain cells.    As I become more fluent:

  • I also plan to watch some Spanish TV a few days a week. 
  • Maybe take a College Course in Spanish.
  • Maybe go on a Spanish Speaking Immersion Vacation.
  • Maybe tutor some Spanish speaking folks in English (and they can tutor me in Spanish).
  • Find some other opportunities to practice my Spanish.

I really feel I have just started on this Spanish quest so it is hard to give myself a grade.    I guess since I just have started I can give myself a "C" with the hope of improvement as I progress some more.
