Crystal Learns Spanish

When life gives you lemons... make lemonade. When work gives you the ultimatum... go to Costa Rica to learn Spanish! My mom says my life "is a do-over". Im not so sure about that. But the opportunity has come in my mid 30's to do something I’ve dreamt of for years; travel abroad and learn the Spanish language. This blog is for my friends and family to enjoy the tales of my experience.

Spanish Level: My Spanish is worse than I thought. I couldn’t even get through the first paragraph of the exercises Stephanie gave me without looking up half the words.

Tonight when I got home, Stephanie had come home early from school with a stomach ache. While she was home she made up 40 questions with about 7 scenarios for me in Spanish! I was so surprised and really flattered that she took all that time to write out practice for me. It was very nice. It is going to take me a week to get through it though because I’m on a 3rd grade reading level and the scenarios are written on about a 10th grade level.

Glad to hear that you will move up from a 3rd grade level today to 10th grade level in about a week. That's appropriate progress. I guess you'll be home the following week when you are at graduating level.
Pronto Casa.
