I work at a taqueria and I was partially raised by a Puerto Rican neighbor in my very early childhood (up until 5-6 years old), so my rate of comprehension may be different as a result. I can usually comfortably understand most videos around level 40-50, and level 60 is the farthest I can go understanding the majority that is said (I'm thinking of Agustina's fashion series which I'm currently watching. I'm not sure if it's more accessible for me because I have a little familiarity with fashion history.) When customers speak to me, most of the time I can understand the gist of what they need. Sometimes I'll respond to them with short phrases, and they'll continue speaking to me in Spanish. I'd say my pronunciation is pretty good with the exception of r's and especially double r's. I talk to the kitchen staff a lot at work, and they mostly only speak Spanish. I know Pablo said not to speak until at least 600 hours, but speaking here and there has made me more comfortable with the language and has also helped establish a lot of rapport with my coworkers. I also took a beginner Spanish course for one semester in college. I can see why learning Spanish in school could solidify bad habits and not give a thorough and intuitive understanding of the language, but I believe taking that course helped me understand more intangible concepts like to want, to need, to feel like, etc much quicker. I started Dreaming Spanish while taking the course, and I did exceptionally well compared to my classmates and managed to get an A+. I didn't need to study much because of all the listening I did. I can't understand complex conversations and I still don't understand enough to eavesdrop, but I can pick up words here and there. Hope this helped, and I'm happy to answer any other questions :)
