IN mid-April,
I decided to learn Spanish on my own – retuning to a wish I first had when I
was a teenager.
After
learning French for more than four years, I am sure I can manage Spanish.
I
said to others who are interested in learning languages on their own that they
must have a plan or strategy.
If
they do not – they will be all over the place.
My
strategy comes from learning French.
I
said that students must have some plan on how they will learn their language of
interest- then look for resources online.
My
plan to learn Spanish will be to learn:
1.
Greeting phrases
2.
The alphabet and sounds (blends, diagraphs, etc)
3.
Conjugating verbs in simple present tense (including verbs like ser - to be,
estar – to be, ir - to go, tengo – to have, etc)
4. Nouns
and their gender – as well as the articles
5. Prepositions
and pronouns
6.
The numbers
7.
Telling time
8. Simple
past tense
9. Future
tense
10.
The past imperfect
11.
And so on
I
will try to spend 3-4 hours each week on each topic. Because of my busy
schedule, I will do my studies on weekends.
