I can understand. Platiquemos is a very good course and not much different than FSI. It must just be a personal preference thing. The first time I did "FSI" I did FSI for units 1, 2 and 4 and Platiquemos for unit 3. That was a bit lucky because unit 3 is where FSI screws up the prompts.
I happened to notice that the audio length was the same length in both Platiquemos and FSI and I was curious how that was possible when Platiquemos included the conversation stimulus in the audio. I compared texts and Platiquemos just cut out drills from many of the sections to take up the time. Some of the instances it is quite substantial. Either way, the independent language learner has an incredibly great course available. FSI/Platiquemos is definitely the course out there to measure against. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I'm still around, and I finally got caught up with most of your logs. :)
I just finished reading the first two books of the Divergent trilogy (in Spanish), and for anyone looking to pick up a relatively easy book, I would recommend them. They are written mostly in first person, and I haven't had to look up my vocab. If you're thinking of doing a Super Challenge, you should check them out. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Hi guys!
Since I’ve been having some problems focussing on languages lately, I think it’s time I threw in the towel and downgraded my status from active to observer in both Team Lobo and Team Катюша for the months of March and April. I hope I’ll soon (maybe as soon as May) be back with even more enthusiasm for Spanish/Russian but for the time being it seems appropriate to acknowledge the fact that I’m not working on my languages and I don’t expect the situation to change in the next few weeks. I’ll keep following the Teams and my teammates’ logs, but I don’t want the pressure of having to study when I’m not feeling up to it. Good luck, everybody! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Just back from 2 weeks in Spain and am catching up on logs.
Was a March challenge ever decided upon or is it a pulse check to see if we are all still here? Sorry, it was a bit difficult for me to decipher from the posts. It may just be my jet lag. Thanks. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

There was discussion about it, but no consensus that I saw. I guess we should start
working on an April challenge instead now. On a related note, I seem to be in the odd position where I'm running out of Spanish goals already for TAC 2014, so I may need to add some (unlike my Korean goals for which I have plenty left to do). I have the ongoing goals (2 posts per week, team challenges, finding more "hooks" to keep me actively using the language, etc.) but I finished Destinos a week ago and will finish Pimsleur IV in 2 weeks. Afterward, that will leave me with Assimil as my only remaining active study goal. I'm actually tempted to remove a couple of my Korean active study goals and replace them with Spanish goals. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Would you let me suggest "improve production speed"? That would pretty much cascade redefining other goals as necessary by itself... };D 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Hello everyone,
if it's not too late, I'd like to join the team.. I've been learning Spanish for a year, but I didn't like the course at university. SO I wanto to start all over. However, I don't know where and how to start... Today I also started a learning log: http://how-to-learn-any- language.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38545&PN=1 1 person has voted this message useful |
