👆 This. Duolingo is overrated and not great for learning to practically speak the language. You can often get Pimsleur for free thru your local library (Overdrive app).

I like Babbel. Or if you’re just looking to learn words or common phrases, there is a lot of language content on Quizlet (which is free)

Busuu is better than duolingo. But I’d suggest taking classes through your local com college or something. I have a bach in Spanish and am going to start a comm college course once a week soon. They offer many levels and creative courses

Damn that’s mucho caliente. See I got that from watching Narcos

With Covid, it’s a great time to directly work with a language school in Latin America. Colombia and Costa Rica both have pretty neutral accents, and you can do group classes or private for decent rates. Just Google “Spanish schools [country]” Almost everyone is doing classes online right now.

I also used Lingoda when I started. That’s live tutors as well but a cheaper model in a group setting. They also have a very set progression which can be helpful for beginners.

I thought this type of testing was optional and usually recommended if you are using a donor. My guess is that they are booked and pushing me to the Jan cycle. Thoughts?
