When you start to learn Spanish in Boston, it's a good idea
to find yourself a conversation partner who is a native Spanish
speaker. This is someone who you could meet with once
or twice a week to talk to in Spanish for one hour (and
usually then talk in English for another hour).
If you take this step you will see without fail that you
will learn faster than the other people who learn Spanish in
Boston but make no effort outside of the classroom.
This is because the Spanish that you speak in the classroom
is not natural Spanish as spoken on the street, but that is
what you are ultimately learning for. So take the step and find
the opportunity to talk outside class as you learn.
Good places to search for an 'intercambio' partner would be
at Boston University - look for notices on the notice board or
put one up yourself. Also you can try the Boston Area Spanish
Exchange at www.spanishclassesboston.com.
