What is the best resource to do it?
I wanted to conquer French, German, English and Spanish eventually but the need to learn spanish has suddenly reached top priority as I'm going to be doing a photo story in Honduras in the fall.
Are there any good online courses? Next best would be on cd...which company makes the best courses? |

Berlitz is probably the grandaddy of all language courses.
Also, start watching Spanish-language TV, if you can.

Whichever course you choose, be sure to immerse yourself in it as much as you can. The faster and deeper you dive right in, the more you get out of it! Good luck!

I was in a similar situation a few years ago. This is good advice. Watch Spanish Language TV every night for at least an hour. Listen to Spanish Language Radio when ever you are in the car. Learning to hear a language is 50% of the way toward learning to understand and speak it. Round out your self study with classroom on CD or face to face. You'll do fine.
Good news is you're young. The older you get, the harder it is to learn a language. It will be easier for you to learn Spanish than it was for me at twice your age.

Yeah, and I was raised on German and now speak English and have learned some French. From what I understand, if you're able to speak a few languages, it's much easier to pick up newer ones because you're already able to "switch" from one language to another. |

All you need to know is "Senor, dos cervezas, por favor"
The rest of the time you can get by gesticulating wildly and speaking English very slow and loudly.
