learning vocabulary has helped me alot so I suggest you give it a try but there is a secret to it though-never try learning off all the Spanish vocab by heart. Speaking in spanish a little every day on common things helps-eg.house-hold items ,food,hobbies - Vitorine, Mar 19, 2013

Why do you feel like you have to chose one? It can only help you to do multiple things. I recommend you do everything that you mentioned above! You won't get fluent off of one method alone. They will all bring something to the table and benefit you separately.

Think like this. What can I do to improve my reading comprehension? (Articles, books, etc.) What can I do to improve my listening skills? (Movies, songs, talking with natives, shows, etc.) What can I do to improve my speaking skills? (Talking with natives, reading text aloud, ec.)

It's certainly better to have a variety of methods so that you tackle all of the target areas. In addition, you surely have to build your grammar and vocabulary (SpanishDict and RosettaStone will help you with this). That will allow you to say more things and in a more complex way.

Last, I definitely believe the most important thing is having actual conversations with natives. However, you're certainly not only limited to that. In the mean time, there are so many ways you can build up your skills (such as everything said above.)

It all comes around full circle. There's not one thing you should be doing or one area you should be focusing on. Not one technique will make you advanced or fluent. You say you want to learn, well do it! : ) It all comes down to your effort.

Good luck amigo!

It helps to experiment with ways or strategies of learning Spanish. You could learn it by speaking with Native Speakers and using it to ask for food or order in menus (and yes, tell time). It is possible that you could expand your vocabulary by studying and using them in conversations. Try reading books out loud for pronunciation practice. (It helps if there is someone to help) Not only one will help you be fluent. Show your determination for learning Spanish! Expand your knowledge and ask questions! I wish you all the best!
