Are you new to the Learn Spanish Challenge? Go to Day 1.

I admit that early on in your journey to learn Spanish it can be easy to become frustrated. You might feel like black coal, and the thought of becoming a diamond seems to be an eternity away. I have had those feelings when it felt like I couldn’t say the words I wanted to say. I kept working at it and I’m still not perfect, but a diamond doesn’t seem so far away anymore.

As Dave explained in the video, today’s Spanish lessons are the beginning of Greetings Section 2. We want to get you speaking to anyone and everyone in Spanish. The greetings section will help you get over the first mountain so you will know what to say to begin conversations. This is where the fun begins. You will actually be able to begin conversations in Spanish. It’s okay to be excited.

I want to build a community of people here on the blog and on Facebook who are going through the Learn Spanish Challenge as well. If you are studying this everyday, then I would love to hear how it’s going for you. I would love to post your thoughts on the blog. If you are interested in providing a few sentences about each day, then email me at jake(at)spanishprograms.com and I’ll give you more information. Please put “Interested in Guest Blogging” in the email subject line. Since there are new people beginning the Learn Spanish Challenge each day, your thoughts and feelings will be helpful to them.

These videos are being posted on the blog under the category “Learn Spanish Challenge”. You can also watch the videos on our YouTube channel, and I post them daily on Facebook and Twitter as well.

Keep working at it and watch the coal become a diamond.
