I am travelling to Mexico

Question

I am travelling to Mexico in next 2 months for a 6 months to 1 year business trip. I wanted to learn basic Spanish so that I should be able to commute and communicate with people easily to a possible extent. How you can help me?

Answer 1

2 months is not much time to learn Spanish. If a good grasp of Spanish is neccessary for your business then I suggest that you leave early and go to a Spanish Immersion class in Mexico.

Answer 2

I would recommend finding a Spanish teacher and this link here. Welcome to SD!

Answer 3

Take the advice gocika gave,

visit the local library to see what is offered there

take a course at a local junior college

visit a church (or some social organization) where Spanish is spoken

use this site as much as possible (videos, etc.)

go to a bookstore and find a good dictionary and a "job specific" Spanish book (i.e. "Medical Spanish" if you are in health care)

You have a wonderful opportunity. Hope that helps!
