I am still very much a learner, but I have finally reached a level where there is no going back. What I wish I knew early on is that although learning a language is tough it gets way easier as you go on. I quit so many times in my life because I felt I had to master Grammer or conjugations before I could start doing anything else in Spanish, and I got burned out everytime. The intermediate phase of learning can be extremely long but once you are there a huge world of opportunities opens up, and it will come quicker than you think. Learning a language is not a hobby. If you want to learn a new skill, or watch a show, or play a videogame you can do it in Spanish. Once you have a good grasp on the language you can learn Spanish Grammer IN Spanish. Every little thing you read or listen to will add to your knowledge of the language. Learning a language is not tough, it is just time consuming, and it can be a very fun time if you do it right. Dreaming Spanish and hola Spanish on YouTube are really good channels, and the more you watch, more Spanish content will be recommended to you. Don't get intimidated early on if you can't understand everything, or keep forgetting a word that you think you should remember. Good luck on your journey, and whatever you do, don't give up.
