Learn Spanish for FREE: 5 Free Online Resources for Spanish Learning!
If you’re learning Spanish with a tight budget… good news!
The magic of the internet gives you tons of free resources to improve your Spanish… like this video you’re watching on our channel 😉
But there are more materials beyond Spring Spanish, of course, to learn Spanish for free! Paulisima shares her ideas here:
1. Learn Spanish for free with YouTube videos
We’re biased, yes… but! Check out our about Spanish videos.
We have more than 600 Spanish language learning videos.
And we made a list of ALL of these videos, so you can jump right in! Here’s the first one and the fastest way to learn Spanish:
Among our favorites is the culture of alcohol, things that us Mexicans hate, how to act like a Mexican and about the word ‘ahorita’.
If our extensive playlist is not enough, we have made a list of our 13 favorite YouTube channels, check out what Cory has to by clicking on the link above.
2. The best Spanish podcasts to learn Spanish for free
You have to listen to a lot of Spanish to get fluent. There are tons of free podcasts for beginners and advanced out there.
Check out these awesome article listings written by one of Spring Languages founders and dear friend, Lukas Van Vyve. He compiled all the best podcasts for beginners, intermediate and advanced levels.
Some of the podcasts that he mentions are Spanish Obsessed and Coffee Break Spanish.
3. Speak Spanish with a tandem partner
We have a confession: the truth is that we didn’t really know what the word tandem was in the context of learning a language.
Entonces, ¡antes no sabía pero ahora ya sé! (So, before I didn’t know, but now I know!)
CHUNK ALERT!
Ya sé. (I know.) A really useful Spanish chunk, that you can use when you want to say: I know or I already know.
For more information about what the heck are chunks and how they can help you improve your Spanish really fast, take a look at this link in the description.
✔️ Cheat Sheet with 54 essential Spanish Chunks you’ll hear and use yourself in ANY Spanish conversation (and example sentences). Taken from our YouTube Teacher’s most popular videos!
✔️ 2 Bonus Cheat Sheets with Travel Chunks and Dating/Relationship Chunks
✔️ A Spanish Chunking Tutorial showing you the 1 technique that’ll help you make 100% of the Spanish from our videos roll off the tongue in just 5 minutes a day (you’re probably only using 50% of our lessons’ potential right now…)
A tandem is where you find a Spanish native that wants to learn English and practice with them Spanish and English–for free! Check out Cory’s video with all the places where you can find a native Spanish speaker to practice speaking with.
Hint: It’s really easy to find someone! You could already be speaking Spanish today!
4. Free Spanish apps to learn Spanish for free
There are dozens of free apps out there.
In fact, we have a video about which ones are the best:
Some really good apps are Brainscape that is to make flashcards and LingQ.
5. Spanish blogs/websites to learn Spanish for free
If you want to be up-to-date about what’s happening in the world, but in Spanish, a great option is CNN site in Spanish.
The great thing about it is that if you like to stay informed, you’re very likely to already know what the headlines are, so it’d be easier to understand the news in Spanish.
Also BBC has a Spanish section that is highly recommended. If you’re living in Mexico, you like to laugh and immerse yourself in our culture, you can’t miss reading El Deforma. A satirical news site that just cracks me up.
This is going to earn you extra local points with your Mexican friends.
Te lo prometo. (I promise you.)
