Topic: language lessons (Spanish and German)

[kirkbywool]

Couldn't find a thread on this but if there is one then please delete or merge. Basically I need a bit of help from fellow rawkites as I want to know if there are any places that teach any of the above languages as I can't see anything online.

 I used to do Spanish level one at cactus language on north John street, but there was not enough people for level 2 and as for German I can't find any classes anywhere (that's why I took Spanish as it's more popular).I am practicing a bit on the duolingo app which whilst good isn't quite the same as proper teaching.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

I'm looking to do the same thing myself with Spanish classes, and Liverpool City Council run some adult learning courses which are starting in September. There are a few open days that you can go to and sign up, details are here:

I think the Spanish course is in the Park Road centre, but I'm not 100% sure on that. I don't think they did a German course last time but again I'm not sure, you'd be able to find out at the open days I assume.

Thanks for that info, will look into it, though looks like the open days are on when I'm in work. I will probably do Spanish to be honest as already know a bit and seems more popular than German so more chance of there being a course running. Might see you in the class then

That might be three of us. 

I want to learn some Spanish, before my trip to South America, next year.

You could try downloading Rosetta Stone, that has helped a few friends of mine. There was also a thread on Rawk for learning Spanish but I am not sure if it is still active.

From personal experience it is difficult to learn a language without being immersed in it .i.e. once you have the basics going to a Spanish speaking country and only interacting with people that can't speak English, (but I appreciate that is not always possible).
