How To Learn Spanish For Free - Day 28
It has become increasingly evident to me as I work through these 33 days that the more you use the Spanish you have learnt, the more it will become embedded in your subconscious. So activation is the key.
A great way to activate what you have learnt is by writing it down.
A very simple tip for you today is to go to the forums and discussion boards and write out things in Spanish.
This will really help embed what you have learnt and when people respond in Spanish, you will have started communicating in another language - even if you are just saying who you are and where you live.
Simple, but extremely powerful.

Hi Michael,
I wondering if you have tried the Yahoo! Education site? It is quite informative and it gives a list of idioms after the definition. It also has the audio to help with pronunciation.

By the way the flashcards were a hit.
Thanks,

Hi Elizabeth,
Thanks for your recommendation for the Yahoo education site. I have not checked that one out yet but I shall and will share it with our fellow Spanish Students.
Really pleased that the flashcards worked well with your children - do let me know of any other stuff that you use with them that works.
Regards
Michael
