My Spanish is getting better every day, and I’m grateful for it. It’s mainly because I’m consuming a lot of Spanish language content. I’m watching Pablo Escobar: el patrón del mal on Netflix (which is a good show), and get a lot of Spanish Instagram reels on my feed lately. And because of this, I catch myself thinking in Spanish more. The key to language learning is to expose yourself to the language daily. It’s the same way a lot of us learned English.
That’s great, I’m glad it’s going well for you! I’ve also been teaching myself Spanish and have been really enjoying the process of learning it.
I agree that it helps a lot to immerse yourself in the language. So in addition to Duolingo lessons daily, I’ve been reading news websites completely in Spanish (TeleSur in particular), reading short stories on https://www.fluentwithstories.com/, and have a browser extension called Toucan that changes many of the words on webpages into Spanish.
Telesur is great! I’ve also been reading news from Spain, Público and El Diario. They are the most left wing news publications in Spain
