Speak Spanish sentences
How to speak in complete Spanish sentences.
Many people take courses, yet find it hard to speak Spanish in sentences, even after years of trying. Like this email from Jacqulyn in Washington State, USA;
I took several courses of
Spanish in college several
years ago and could hardly
speak at all and with your
course, I am learning to
say actual sentences - thank you!

Like Jacqulyn many people find the college system leaves them without being able to put a Spanish sentence together.
Often what happens is people become so focused on getting all the minor points of grammar correct that their ability to communicate is totally suffocated.
In fact, grammar can even be unhealthy to your Spanish. Too much focus on grammar can cause hesitation. If you hesitate trying to use perfect grammar, you will lose your listener.
I have seen it many times. It is horrible to watch.
I have seen people’s communication ability go backwards as they try to be perfect. They speak so slowly nobody can stand to listen to them.
Be bold!
Risk making a mistake.
Everyone makes mistakes.
Mistakes help you learn.
The worst thing that I could do to you would be to cause you to be hesitant in your Spanish.
When you get out there in the real world and use Spanish, you will have to be bold. If you get bogged down in the minor stuff, you will lose the opportunity to communicate.
And communication is what my course is all about, not minor points of grammar.
When it comes to speaking Spanish it is the major stuff you need to master.
