🤷 How long does it take to master Spanish?
Some people just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in Spanish will necessitate at least 600 hours of dedication. The amount of time can differ quite a bit depending on your current level of Spanish or proficiency in other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch television, try typing using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try as many as possible ways to think and speak in Spanish out loud. If this is a greater challenge than you had anticipated you can also take conversational Spanish classes online.
🤳 Can I choose my own Spanish instructor?
In language centers, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from the ones who already work there). Online, of course! The largest selection of tested Spanish tutors with extensive profiles and true reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.

Online, you can take as few as one lesson a year, as many as several a day - and as many (or as few) as you want during any time of day, on weekdays and/or weekends.
