I just spent the last 5 weeks in Mexico studying Spanish. I am able to understand the language fairly well through listening, and one of the main things that I need is oral speaking practice. I know that I also lack in vocabulary, as anyone would at this particular stage in learning the language. I am very capable of writing spanish, only me cuesta trabajo hablar en espanol. It takes me a longer time to spit the words out.

I live in Columbus, Ohio where there isn't a very large Spanish speaking population. Any ideas on how to keep practicing, or any ideas on a second job or activity that I could pick up? I am really interested and dedicated to becoming bilingual, so I would appreciate serious responses.

Get a job part-time with the Bureau of Workers Compensation as a telephone adjuster for Spanish-speaking applicants to help them fill out their workers comp forms. People call from all over the state, and you will stay current on Spanish, at least about injuries, anyway.

First, we haven't any respectable country wide language. Therefore, we are not able to have an respectable moment country wide language. Absolutely it is smart for a few locations to rent bilingual staff. It's known as "capitalism," probably the most American matters there's. Employers oftentimes have got to do trade with shoppers that talk simplest Spanish. If they are not able to talk it themselves, that advantage buyer would possibly cross someplace in which Spanish is spoken, and the organization with out Spanish will lose cash. There is a exact fact a few folks on this nation fail to detect. Immigrants are right here. Immigrants oftentimes talk an extra language. The drawback that folks must be demanding approximately is what the US govt is doing not to simplest at ease the border and hinder extra unlawful immigration, but in addition what the US govt will do involving the truth of 12 million or so unlawful extraterrestrial beings that we are not able to deport but we are not able to have dwelling as a few kind of part-citizen, both.

you should check into a job in Marion, OH. It's about 50 miles NW, just take 23 north. There is a growing hispanic population there, and I'm sure you could find a job virtually anywhere that would involve speaking Spanish. Also, in Columbus, try finding a job at a bank or department store.
