Learn Spanish Anywhere With Learning Spanish Videos, But Be Considerate

I love traveling and I like picking up new languages. But some languages are easier to pick up than others. Spanish is one of the languages that I picked up pretty fast. I guess it may have a lot to do with my love for Spanish football, flamenco and Spanish classical music.

A few years ago I made a trip to Spain to learn to play flamenco guitar from a master flamenco guitarist in Jerez. I prepared for the trip by watching lots of learn Spanish videos as well Spanish movies which had both English and Spanish subtitles for easy reference.

Portable

The good thing about these learn Spanish DVDs is that you can take them anywhere. Wherever I go, I would bring along my portable DVD player so I could watch my learn Spanish DVDs. I would watch them on the plane, on the train, on the ferry or on the bus. This practice has caused me to miss my stop more than a couple of times while traveling on a bus. I would advise those who intend to watch videos on bus journeys not to do so on short trips lest you risk missing your stop too.

For Better Audio

When I watch learn Spanish videos at home, the audio comes through my huge speakers. However, when I watch them while I'm on a train, I naturally use headphones. What I discovered is that with headphones you can better hear how certain words are pronounced. I am not sure if it is because I use s $200 headphone set but the words just sound clearer.

Be Considerate

One word of advice when using headphones; try not to annoy the people around you especially if you are on the plane or train on a long journey. Watching Spanish movies is not a problem. The problem arises when you watch and follow the instructions on learn Spanish DVDs. You might find yourself happily repeating the words while totally unaware of your volume.

Practice common courtesy by just listening to the learn Spanish videos while in close proximity with other passengers. After all, you do not want to find yourself on the 6 o'clock news or on YouTube for causing discomfort among fellow passengers.

Summary

Watching learn Spanish videos is a great way to pick up Spanish. Knowledge of a new language opens up a new world of culture and adventure and makes it very easy to make new friends and travel to new Spanish-speaking places.
