Answer 1

With language teaching, you get what you pay for.

Hands down, the best instruction you can get would be at a community college in their regular classes. The people who work there usually have Master's degrees or higher and they make language teaching their profession; therefore, they are very well-trained and up on the latest teaching methods. I would recommend a community college to anyone who has the resources.

At a university, you will get teaching assistants who don't have as much experience at teaching Spanish as the community-college instructors. Nevertheless, they will be somewhat informed about the latest teaching methods.

At other vocationa/technical schools, you may or may not get a person who is trained to teach language. These schools exist to make money and sometimes don't care as much about giving quality education.

At community programs, you will probably not get someone who is trained to teach language. The classes are offered less often and the instruction will probably be fun, but you won't progress as much as you would in other classes.

There are also many things that you can do on your own to learn Spanish, if you are diligent and willing to put in the time. You can watch movies, watch television broadcasts, listen to the radio, and read in Spanish. As long as you are understanding something (even if it's a very little bit at first, like the main topic of the story) you'll benefit from individual practice of this type.

If you go to a class, though, try to enroll in a class whose teacher has a Master's degree in Linguistics or Spanish (or a higher degree). Make sure to find someone who does language teaching as a profession (not just a hobby, like the teachers in community education do). They'll be the best-trained people around.
