Coming back after a hiatus...

Question

Hello!I was very dedicated and enthusiastic about learning Spanish until I hit a wall at A2. I still listen to my favorite Spanish songs and recite some of the basic verbs and their conjugations but it's definitely been several months since I even logged in to Kwiziq so it feels like I'm starting all over again. Any suggestions on how and where to start again? Thank you, Allysen

Hola Allysen
Welcome back! It's great that you're rekindling your enthusiasm for learning Spanish. Since you've taken a break, it might be helpful to start with a gentle review to refresh your memory. You can revisit the basics, including common vocabulary, essential grammar rules, and basic phrases.
Here's a suggested plan:

Review basic vocabulary: Start with everyday words and phrases. In our library, you can find vocabulary lists on various topics.

Grammar refresh: Revisit essential grammar concepts, especially those at the A2 level. Focus on verb conjugations, sentence structure, and common expressions. Take as many quizzes as you can! Repetition will help solidify those concepts that may be challenging at first.

Listening practice: Continue listening to Spanish songs, but also try podcasts, audiobooks, or watching Spanish shows with subtitles. This will help improve your listening skills.

Speaking practice: Engage in simple conversations. You can find language exchange partners online or even talk to yourself in Spanish to practice speaking.

Kwiziq exercises: Resume your Kwiziq sessions, starting with A2-level exercises to gradually build your confidence. The platform is designed to adapt to your level, making it an excellent tool for personalised learning.

Set realistic goals: Establish achievable short-term goals to measure your progress. Celebrate small victories along the way to stay motivated.

Remember, learning a language is a journey, and it's okay to take breaks. The key is to enjoy the process.
¡Buena suerte!
Best,
