Today I met a group of five Japanese people at my university: I had almost forgot how
beautiful was speaking that awesome language Japanese is.

I just wanted to say hi, I will be following your log! You seem to have made excellent progress in Spanish so far! This is encouraging to me because I'm just starting to learn Spanish. Keep up the good work!

Hi there,

Hooray, only two units left! I’m actually a little behind schedule, but my graduation day
is getting closer and closer and time is literally flying by! During the first week of
the month I was able to actively study and expose myself to the language for more than
two hours a day. This second week is been a disaster though, but I’ll be trying to make
up for lost time.
I’m also planning to make a video once I’m done with the course as I’m really curious to
know if I’ve been doing well or not. Feedbacks are of vital importance when it comes to
learn a foreign language, aren’t they? :)

And, by the way, thank you very much for your kind comment vanillabean! Stay tuned :)

Hi guys,

I just wanted to make sure that you can open and listen at this file I'm posting here now
- it's just a very short audio sample in Spanish I've recorded a while ago. As I don't
want to spam with low quality or broken files, I would really appreciate if you could
tell me if you can download it without problems and if the recording itself is ok.

Cheers

For some reason I wasn't able to access the file. When I right click and download it says "the requested URL was not
found on this server." When I open up the file in a new window, it displays the main file dropper page.

Dam, I so knew it... I'm recording the audio files using my iPod and I can actually
listen to them, but always making use of iTunes as a file reader. Do you guys have any
suggestions on this regard? Any other good website where upload such a files?

Gracias :)

I like http://www.megaupload.com or http://www.mediafire.com for free files uploads.They also have minimum ads.

Great job on your Spanish! How do you test your current Spanish levels? Is there a free testing site?

Hello everyone,

It took me almost three months, but I eventually completed the “Teach Yourself -
Complete Spanish” course and I’m now ready to move on! I’ve decided not to go through
any other more advanced courses as my goal is, for the moment, getting a B2 level
certification. I got this other book – comprehensive of drills and keys – called
“Gramática de uso del español – Teoría y práctica”, a sort of course in 126 mini-
lessons which focuses not only on the main aspects of the language, but also on
punctuation and on the comparison and specific usages of similar tenses etc. I’m going
to work my way through this book until mid-April, leaving the remaining month to that
DELE B2 preparation course I’ve already told you about in a previous post.

As for my language level, I think I’m already somewhere around the intermediate stage.
My reading and listening abilities are actually more advanced thanks to my Italian
language background, but I certainly need to work harder on the remaining skills -
especially on writing. I’m going to mainly focus my attention on the written and oral
production for the next two months, making sure that I don’t neglect the remaining
abilities. Building a solid knowledge of a B2 level is my goal.

Thank you very much for your advices sash2619, I think I’ll soon upload something on
Megaupload!
