Spanish is the official language in 21 countries, but is spoken as a native language by approximately 360 million people in a much larger number of countries - 20 million more people than native English speakers. Many global companies prefer applicants with knowledge of Castilian. Would you therefore like to start learning Spanish or are you looking for ways to improve your Spanish language skills? There are many different ways to learn Spanish.
Probably the best-known way to learn a foreign language is to attend a Spanish course at a local language school. But even here there are considerable and decisive differences in learning Spanish. Depending on your language goal, job-specific language courses, intensive courses or diploma courses may be more suitable than a standard course.
Another interesting option is "learning Spanish online". Although independent language learning requires more discipline, online Spanish courses are attractive because they are independent of time and place and allow you to continue learning at your own pace.
An even more modern method is offered by various language learning apps, which can be conveniently stored on a smartphone or tablet for learning Spanish. This means that you can swot up anywhere and in small chunks. What's more, the cost of an online course or a Spanish app is much lower than attending a language course.
However, the well-known way of doing a language study trip in a Spanish-speaking country is still the fastest and most effective way to learn Castilian. This is because immersion in a Spanish-speaking environment is the only way for learners to really get to grips with the language and to apply and deepen what they have learned. Stays abroad can often be combined with studies in the form of a semester abroad to learn Spanish. If your company has branches in Spanish-speaking countries, you could ask your superiors about a stay abroad.
