Adult classes given by community college district start this month.  Two hours a night, once a week, for 9 or 10 weeks.  Cost is $4 an hour, so total is $72 or $80.
  I just bought Learn Spanish Now cd's.  Regular $40, comes with $10 mail-in rebate good through Feb. 05.  Bought mine two weeks ago, but after I did, this week's Staples' ad had it discounted another $10.

I want to learn Spanish, not necessarily for TJ, though it would help :)  Anyone have any advice on what's best?  I'm considering one of those CD (audio/ROM) packages to do a self-paced thing.  Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Depends upon whether you desire to read and write Spanish or to speak Spanish or all three.  Taking classes on this side of the border rarely helps one's spoken Spanish as one learns to speak it through the ears not the eyes and US classes are bookish in nature.  Outside of living in a Spanish speaking country, taking a lover who only speaks Spanish will almost instantly force you to learn how to communicate.  Buena suerte!  Lencho.

Hey,
Please allow me to share a suggestion reccommended to me about learning Spanish for an up coming vacation to Costa Rica.

Your local library might be a very inexpensive solution. I was able to checkout Pimsluer learning Spanish audio cd's Spanish 1 & 2 for free! Better to spend your $'s on the chica's than in the book store;-) Each has 30 lessons you listen to for 30 minutes a day. Call your local libray to see what is availible or if your can reserve the audio learning Spanish cd's.

Hope this is helpful...

The Pimsleur series of CDs are the best I've found. They're expensive, but you might be able to check them out from your library.

30 minutes a day, but you need to be somewhere where you can listen and respond out loud.
