Spanish Resources and Links

You will need to link up with your class Remind page as well to ensure you don't lose any relevant updates. (Codes are listed in an announcement in your Canvas account.)

The BEST site for translations and conjugations and even better for forum answers is WordReference.

All of your vocabulary study sets are on my classroom (holasrarivera) Quizlet site.

Practice your verb conjugation after creating an account with Conjuguemos (Usernames are posted in the classroom bulletin board along with your password.)

A good site for practicing recall and reading comprehension is Textivate.

**And for a little extra help:

Listen to Spanish while brushing up on current events with www.newsinslowspanish.com

Simple Stories in Spanish Podcast is a good way to listen and increase comprehension Simple Stories in Spanish

One of my favorite Youtube channels for learning Spanish -- she's a native speaker and has TONS of videos on all types of vocabulary and grammar Butterfly Spanish

Another option where the speaker hardly breaks from their native language is Why Not Spanish?

Spanish and GO is a great option as well -- these two teach as they travel through the Spanish-speaking world (and do so with Latin-American Spanish)

Juan is a pretty prolific YouTuber with many posts recorded completely in European Spanish -- from basic to advanced if you'd like to jump in with immersion. Español con Juan

Or if you really want to learn from a gringo who knows what it's like to fail high school Spanish to later become completely fluent, then check out The Spanish Dude!

A great free audio course is called Language Transfer, and you can listen through SoundCloud, Youtube, or they have their own app. www.languagetransfer.org/complete-spanish

Game-based practice with both free and paid options https://www.clozemaster.com/languages

Go Comics has a page dedicated to Spanish language comics as well as some popular comics translated into Spanish. En Español Comics

(And if you *really* want to do a deep dive into paid course, app, and website options -- https://www.alllanguageresources.com/spanis h / is a great place to read reviews and compare them for yourself.)

LASTLY (for real...for now) an added bonus https://collegecliffs.com/resources-for-learning-a-foreign-language/ is full of tips for learning a foreign language. (Shout out to Justin for this one)
