Decided to learn Spanish (or already embarked on your language adventure)? Excelente! You’re on your way, whether you’re dreaming of salsa nights in Seville or just want to order tapas without butchering the pronunciation.

But let’s get real. Traditional language learning can score high on the dull-o-meter scale! Although it doesn’t have to be mind-numbing.

Thankfully, you can learn Spanish with flair, fun, fluency, and no boring textbooks required. Here’s how.

  • 1 Mix It Up and Keep It Moving

There’s no single secret sauce for success. In contrast, a combination of different things can help you learn Spanish with surprising ease and enjoyment. For example:

  • Podcasts and playlists
  • Singing along to Gloria Estefan, Enrique Iglesias (or his dad Julio), or Shakira
  • Ordering churros in Spanish

And keep it consistent. Even 15 minutes a day adds up. So, choose methods you enjoy and keep showing up. 

  • 2 Speak Like You’ve Had a Peroni

Not sloshed. Just loosened up. Be bold, be imperfect, be you, because confidence is key.

  • 3 Binge Watch Your Way to Better Spanish

Watching The Eternaut, Las muñecas de la mafia, or El Chapo on Netflix? Turn on Spanish audio and subtitles to supercharge your listening skills.

  • 4 Curate Your Social Media Feed en Español

Scroll smarter by following Spanish-speaking influencers, brands, or meme accounts. After all, learning Spanish is easier when it’s part of your daily scroll.

  • 5 Get Schooled (In a Good Way)

Last but by no means least, regular online or in-person classes = real results.

Just a two-hour lesson a week can seriously level up your skills. Plus, you’ll have an expert on hand to keep you accountable and inspired.
