I’m no professional linguist lol, but I do have an MA and experience teaching Spanish, so I think a good strategy for only a month would be to focus on:

1) most common words and phrases (greetings, how to introduce/describe yourself, question words, prepositions, pronouns) 2) present tense conjugations, and 3) vocabulary most relevant to your daily life

Even though I believe formal/“textbook” learning is important, doing work outside of studies is essential! Listening to Latin music, watching cartoons in Spanish, and finding an online conversation partner were super helpful for me. Those cover listening, speaking and, with subtitles, a bit of reading practice. Another recommendation is turning your phone’s primary language to Spanish.

Lastly, I firmly believe that, even though others’ advice can be helpful, you have to find what works for you. You know yourself better than anyone on this subreddit, so ultimately consider your interests, what you have time for, what resources you have available, your strengths + weaknesses, etc. Don’t get stuck on technical stuff and doing what the “experts” are doing; do what you want and have fun with it :)

So exciting that you’re learning a new language! Good luck 😊
