Borntorune asked:


I’ve just finished my freshman year in college, and developed an interest in learning a language. My high school had a really horrible language program, I took 4 years of Spanish and can’t form a complete sentence.

The languages I’m looking at choosing among are Spanish, Italian, and Russian. Spanish because that way I won’t have completely wasted my classes, Italian because I have a good friend who’s fluent in it, and Russian because of my High School physics teacher introducing me to a lot of Russian authors.

So my questions center not so much around which language to learn, but how to start learning one. Tips and tricks, mnemonics, experiences, common pitfalls, maintaining motivation, the works. Stories of how you went about it.

I’ve seen similar questions previously. I realize I can get things cheap(er) on E-bay. But I’m looking for specific programs that are known to be effective for teaching children languages, while still being fairly affordable. Spanish is my main concern since we live in Florida(and because we can branch other languages that are similar from it).

So what programs are effective yet cheap?

Also, any other suggestions for teaching a foreing language to a child while not being able to speak to that child in the language on a regular basis(since I don’t speak spanish)?
I’m familiar with Rosetta Stone; I was thinking more kids oriented along the lines of Muzzy or something? So no one has used any and have found them successful?
