Spanish is one of the romance languages, derived directly from the Latin of the Roman Empire. There is a great deal of Latin influence in English. In fact, Latin was the official language of England up until 1252 when King John made English official. Thus there are many similarities in English and Spanish, making Spanish easy for English-speakers to learn.

The best way to learn to speak Spanish is to take an interactive audio course. Good ones are available that you can buy and download from the Internet immediately. Once on your hard disk in mp3 format, you can offload copies to your iPod or other portable listening device. Or you could burn the lessons into CD’s and play them back on any CD player anywhere.

The leading downloadable Spanish course, Rocket Spanish has received recognition as one of the best, if not THE best course available.

So how to learn Spanish? The best way is conversationally. You learn some basic vocabulary, a few words. Then you practice using these in spoken conversation. You ask and answer questions. You communicate. Doing that impresses the words on your mind and lets you assimilate them as tools useful for communication. You learn by using the language, not by memorizing vocabulary and conjugating verbs. Think about it. How old were you when you first learned what the word “conjugation” meant? I’ll bet you could already speak pretty good, effective English then!

Rocket Spanish is the leading interactive-audio learn-spanish course because it combines a variety of teaching methods (games, questions and answers, flash cards and more) with excellent, educated native spanish speaking instructors.
