<< What sort of a Spanish intensive did you use? My Spanish is
limited to leche and pecho and I want to learn more! Next ILCA conv is in
Mexico folks! Have tried local night school, but it is oriented to "how do
I find the hotel/restaurant/museum" sort of conversation :-( >>
The moving to Mexico City 1/2 way thru my junior year in high school
intensive! After 6 years of French yet. Getting a Spanish speaking
boyfriend works well too! (Unless you have a DH that would not be thrilled!)
Seriously, alot of the Berlitz courses are very good. Get a pocket sized
dictionary and carry it around with you. Sign language and a good sense of
humor are mandatory too. Using those cute breast balloons is also very
helpful - always good for a chuckle to whip out the insta-breast!
Is the next ILCA Conference really going to be in Mexico? How wonderful!
Haven't been there in 30 years! Maybe there could be a Spanish for LC's
class offered inconjunction with the Conference. I'm sure there would be
alot of interest since language/cultural barriers affect a great many of us.
Maybe we could pose the question to the Conference planning committee...
