Learning Spanish is a unique journey βοΈ for everyone. To find the best way to learn Spanish, itβs essential to understand your learning style. In this guide, we present the four main learning styles and how each one can help you absorb Spanish more effectively. At the end, we offer you an online test and an explanation of our methodology at Soy Guiri so you can start your journey to fluency.
Visual learners retain information best when itβs represented visually. If this sounds like you, the following resources will be helpful:
β Flashcards π: Create visual flashcards with vocabulary and grammar rules.
β Mind maps πΊοΈ: Organise concepts visually to better understand connections.
β Video lessons π½οΈ: Watch Spanish content, from tutorials to Spanish-language films with subtitles.
βTip: Use a notebook filled with colourful notes, diagrams, and even drawings to reinforce your Spanish vocabulary and grammar.
Auditory learners absorb information best when they hear it. For this style, activities like these are recommended:
β Podcasts and audio lessons π§: Listen to Spanish content on topics of interest.
β Conversation practise π£οΈ: Participate in language exchanges or conversational classes.
β Music and songs πΆ: Spanish music is an excellent tool; focus on the lyrics to improve vocabulary and pronunciation.
βTip: Repeat new phrases aloud and listen to native speakers to enhance comprehension.
For those who learn best by reading and writing, the following practices are ideal:
β Reading in Spanish π: Start with articles, books, or blogs, and gradually increase the difficulty.
β Writing practise π: Keep a journal or write short texts to build vocabulary and grammar.
β Text-based exercises π: Use apps and workbooks that reinforce written Spanish.
βTip: After reading in Spanish, summarise what youβve learnt to improve both comprehension and expression.
Kinesthetic learners absorb knowledge best through practical activities. Recommended methods for kinesthetic Spanish learners include:
β Role-playing exercises π: Act out common scenarios, such as ordering in a restaurant or asking for directions.
β Interactive games π²: Use language apps and games that encourage interaction and dynamism.
β Real-life practise π¬: Visit Spanish-speaking places and practise in real-life situations.
βTip: Integrate Spanish into your daily routine with immersive experiences to solidify what youβve learnt.
