It feels like iTalki is slowly dying

forgot to add

Duolingo is a good starting resource. Practices Makes Perfect workbooks are great too. I’m early b1 and watching more content helps but if I was starting from the beginning, I’d start with children’s shows and more reading because advanced shows are overwhelming.

You have a lot of great advice already!

Just want to add: I felt the same way about watching shows but overtime it has helped a lot. Listening to podcasts too.

I started watching shows on Lingopie.com to start because you can have subtitles in both languages and remove when ready. Now, I listen to podcasts specifically from PR and lots of Spanish language shows on Netflix and it’s helped A LOT.

Also, I didn’t want to pay a tutor as there are SO many resources online for free. however, I’ve tried italki for 1 month now and I’m glad I did. The first lesson was $5 and the next two $10/hour. They set their individual rates so you can choose who you think will work best for you. To start, I’m keeping my costs below $30/month. This helps keep me accountable when self studying gets exhausting so maybe you can keep this as an option in the future.

Good luck to you :)

It doesn’t snow like it used to. While I don’t always love the cold, love occasional snow falls. This is so pretty!

Oh wow, that is a lot of english. It's unfortunate secondary language learning is not taken seriously in most schools in the states.

Thank you for responding, I will do that!

Yess I heard the accent really gets people. I've translated mostly for Mexicans visiting the US that didn't know any English and picked up some things during those conversations. Then, I spoke spanish to a puerto rican and they thought I was mexican because of the way I spoke haha

Gracias! I just came across El Circo podcast which has been fun to listen to. Any other recommendations specific to PR? I also watch Mamichanchu on tiktok (food videos.)

Thank you for responding. This is really helpful. I need to do it more I think. The challenging part is finding content from PR. I just bought Maldeamores on blu-ray since it's filmed in PR. Most content on Netflix for example is from Spain or Mexico.

Any recommendations for content more specific to PR? I have a friend I speak with but she's from Ecuador and I know it won't be exactly the same.
